Rule of thumb. When SaaS, when your own system.

Most "SaaS or your own" decisions come down to a single number: how many bookings, clients or visits you handle per month. You match the model to that number. Three thresholds from my own practice:

Small scale

Fewer than 50 bookings/visits per month. Stay on SaaS.

At this scale Booksy about PLN 130, Calendly about PLN 60 or basic Booking are cheaper than your own system. An investment of 5-10 thousand in a custom solution will only pay off after 3-5 years. Better to spend that money on marketing that grows your scale. Exception: if SaaS blocks a specific integration you need (e.g. fiscalization, your own mobile app), then go custom right away.

Medium scale

50-200 bookings per month. This is the tipping point.

Booking's roughly 15% commission and the Booksy/Restaumatic subscriptions start to hurt. A guesthouse with 12 rooms pays Booking around PLN 21,000 a year in commission alone. A salon with 4 people pays Booksy about PLN 520 a month. Your own system for PLN 4,999-7,999 pays off in 12-18 months. This is where it is worth calculating ROI with the calculator (there is one in every comparison) and making the decision consciously.

Large scale

200+ bookings per month. Your own system is the obvious choice.

At this scale SaaS is simply expensive. A restaurant with 200 online bookings a day on Restaumatic pays about a PLN 300 subscription plus 5-8% commission on every booking. That is PLN 8,000-15,000 a month. Your own system for PLN 5,999 pays off in 1-3 months and keeps working at no further cost. Plus full control over UX, a consistent brand look, your own data.

The thresholds above are averages. Every industry has its own specifics (restaurants, beauty, accommodation, clinics) and every custom system has a different break-even point. The concrete numbers are in each comparison. Competitor prices and commissions are given approximately, per public pricing as of 2026, so verify them with the provider.

What you will find in every comparison

  • A verdict in 1 sentence, when SaaS, when Lokal360, for what scale
  • A table of 10-13 dimensions, price, commission, data, lock-in, integrations, customization
  • Real 5-year bills, with concrete amounts for typical scenarios
  • When the competition is better, no hard sell, scenarios where SaaS wins
  • When Lokal360 wins, specific client profiles
  • An FAQ of 5-6 questions, the most common concerns and technical questions
  • Related resources, the full guide + a blog post with a deeper write-up + a service page with the offer
