Comparison

BookNox vs 17hats.
Half the price. Sharper scope.

17hats restructured to a single $60/month all-inclusive tier in 2025, eliminating its former budget option. That works if you use every feature; if you mostly need proposals, contracts, and a deposit link, you’re paying for a lot of platform you don’t touch. BookNox is $29/month for the same booking surface.

The bottom line

$372/year saved at the subscription tier alone.

17hats at $60/month is $720/year. BookNox at $29/month is $348/year. Annual delta on the subscription alone: $372. On top of that, BookNox doesn’t take a platform fee on bookings — you pay Stripe’s standard processing rate directly to Stripe.

Honest comparison

When 17hats is the better choice.

  • You want bookkeeping in the same tool. 17hats tracks expenses, mileage, and tax categorization inside the CRM. BookNox doesn’t.
  • You manage projects in pipeline stages. 17hats has a kanban project board for tracking work beyond “signed and paid”. BookNox treats each proposal as its own lifecycle.
  • You use scheduling heavily. 17hats’ scheduler with reminders is more developed than BookNox’ Calendar sync.
  • The all-inclusive feature breadth matters more than the price. 17hats’ single tier means you never hit a feature paywall — you just pay for the whole stack up front.

When the bookkeeping and scheduling extras don’t earn their $31/month price difference, BookNox is the tighter tool for the same booking outcome.

Keep more of every booking.
