BookNox vs Tripleseat
BookNox vs Tripleseat. Built for the vendor, not the hotel.
Tripleseat is event management software for venues such as restaurants and hotels, listing banquet event orders, floor plans, proposals, and contracts; its quote request page asks you to request a demo. BookNox is the booking link for the independent vendor. One page quotes the job, signs the contract, and takes the deposit, at a published $29 a month flat.

Why vendors switch
A price you can read, and a link you can send today.
No sales call to learn the price
BookNox is $29 flat and published. With Tripleseat you start by requesting a demo, which is slow if you just want to start taking bookings.
Sized for an independent vendor
One client, one date, one contract, one deposit. No sales pipeline or banquet operation wrapped around it.
Travel priced onto the quote
For anyone working on location, a client types the venue address and BookNox measures the drive from your base and applies your rate per mile automatically.
Honest comparison
When Tripleseat is the better choice.
If you are the kind of operation Tripleseat sells to, BookNox is not a serious alternative and we would not pretend it is.
- You run a restaurant, hotel, or multi room venue. Tripleseat is built for exactly that, and says more than 20,000 venues use it. BookNox is built for a single vendor booking a single date.
- You need banquet event orders and floor plans. The documents and layouts that actually run a catered event. BookNox produces a contract and an invoice, and nothing else.
- You field inquiries from many channels. Tripleseat lists an inquiry inbox and custom inquiry forms among its features. BookNox has no multi user model.
These two barely overlap. Tripleseat sells event management software to venues; BookNox sells to the independent vendor who wants a quote, a contract, and a deposit without a platform around it. If you are somewhere in between, the honest test is whether you need banquet event orders. If you do, it is not us.
