Find the best reservation system for your budget and needs
Nowadays you can no longer do without a good reservation system if you run an activity center, sports facility, rental service or leisure company. It ensures that your daily planning runs smoothly and that your customers can easily book with you. But every company is different. What works for one is less convenient for the other. And then we are not even talking about the different budgets. Choosing the right reservation system can therefore be quite difficult.
Reservation systems not only have other functions, but also different price models. For example, one system is perfect for small companies with a sleek budget, while the other offers extensive features for more money. It is important to understand those differences before choosing a system so that you can properly consider what suits your company.
In this blog we examine three well-known reservation systems-Flexybox, Reservio, Briq Bookings and compare this with i-Reserve . We dive into the different price models and explain what to look out for.
2. Overview of the companies
We first start briefly with a brief overview of the different systems.
Flexybox is a total solution for companies that work with complex reservations, such as activity centers and bowling alleys. The system not only offers extensive reservation options, but also comes with integrated cash register systems (POS) and customized solutions.
Reservio is for smaller companies and starters who are looking for a simple and affordable solution. With their clear subscriptions and options that you can expand later, it is an ideal system to start with.
Briq Bookings focuses on recreation companies that want to work smarter with data. Their price model is flexible, with costs per booking, which can be nice for companies that have a lot of reservations at some times and sometimes less. In addition, Briq helps you to analyze customer data so that you can grow and run your company even better.
i-Reserve is a versatile and modular option that matches both large and small companies within various branches. Whether you offer a sports lesson or rent a room, there are always modules that you can adjust to what you need. Everything works at a fixed monthly price, without extra costs per reservation. Perfect for entrepreneurs who like clarity and flexibility.
3. Compare price models and properties
Each reservation system has its own price model and unique properties. From flexible costs per booking to fixed subscription prices and customized options-we therefore list the most important characteristics of Flexybox, Reservio, Briq Bookings and i-Reserve for you. This way you can choose more easily!
Flexybox
Flexybox offers four packages, called Startup, Essentials, Full Service and Enterprise. Each package is designed to meet different levels of functionalities and scale. Unfortunately, the prices of these packages are not immediately visible on the website. Companies must contact us for a customized offer, which is less transparent and can take time. Although this offers some flexibility to get a customized package, it is difficult to immediately assess whether it fits within the budget and needs. Flexybox therefore seems to be most suitable for companies that are open to a personalized solution and willing to invest time in the price determination.
Reservio
Reservio is known for its accessibility with four subscription levels: free, starter, standard and pro. The monthly costs start from 0, which is ideal for starting companies or organizations with minimal needs. Each level offers different limit options for bookings and available functions. This transparent model makes it easy to choose and possibly scale up later.
Although the price is attractive, the system contains many standard elements and offers fewer options compared to more extensive alternatives. For companies that need more flexibility or customization, this can be a limitation. In addition, it is important to know that if you have used up the permitted number of bookings of your current subscription, you cannot immediately add new bookings. Customers can still make a new appointment via the booking website, but you cannot view the details of these online bookings until you have your Upgrade.Upgradet subscription.
Briq Bookings
Briq Bookings uses a cost structure that is based on performance. This means a one -off onboarding cost of € 250, reservation costs of 2% per booking and € 1 per admin booking. A minimum monthly rate of € 100 applies. This model offers a lot of flexibility because companies pay for what they actually use, but can be less beneficial for companies with reservations with a high booking value. Due to the costs per booking, the total amount can quickly increase when you receive more bookings. In addition, the onboarding code is a lot longer due to the onboarding cost.
i-Reserve
and finally, our own reservation system , i-Reserve . To give you a clear picture of what our system can offer you, we start with the so -called "warm start". Hereby we offer a no -obligation test environment where you can look around for 30 days before you make a choice to continue with us. This way you know exactly where you get in. We offer a modular price model with packages that vary from bronze to platinum. This gives companies the flexibility to choose a package that matches their specific needs and budget. The monthly costs depend on the selected package, and extra modules can easily be added for more functionality. The bronze package of 49 euros per month is the entry package, specially designed for small self-employed or associations. This package contains basic functionalities such as managing reservations and offering a user -friendly booking interface and 250 bookings. Although it is aimed at simplicity, our reservation system remains fully expandable, so that you as a company can always additional modules when your company grows or needs additional functionalities. This approach makes i-Reserve reservation system particularly suitable for companies that want to tailor their booking system to their changing needs, without binding to a complex and expensive system from the start. Our system is suitable for all branches and there are no hidden costs.
Which reservation system is suitable for your company and budget?
When choosing a reservation system, it is important to look at the unique properties of your company.

Briq Bookings is ideal for recreational companies that are looking for data -driven growth and do not mind a flexible cost model per booking.
