How we compared: Setmore can be cheaper if you only need basic scheduling. This example uses three Pro users at $11.99/user/month and a rough GBP conversion before exchange-rate changes or add-ons. Setora is £59/month per location, before VAT where applicable. SMS credits and card processing are separate if you use them. Competitor prices, add-ons, taxes, marketplace fees and exchange rates can change, so check the current provider pricing before you decide.

Export before cancelling. Ask for the records you need while your current account is still active.
Check before changing links. Review imported records and test the booking flow first.
Keep a secure copy. Store the original export safely while you check the move.
Keep an exit route. People with permission can export customer records and available reports from Setora.
Before you decide

Setmore pricing and export routes can change. Check Setmore's current pricing and support documentation before making a final decision.
Before you switch
The practical questions.
What to check before moving away from Setmore.
Can I export my client data from Setmore?
Setmore lets owners export contacts as CSV, with limits depending on the route used. For staff data or appointment history, you may need a data portability request. Setora helps import the files you receive.
Is Setmore's free plan enough for a barbershop?
For a small shop that only needs basic scheduling, it may be. Setora is built for owners who want a shop-focused Booking Page, staff setup, portable customer data and no Setora commission.
How does Setora handle walk-ins?
A staff member can add a walk-in in kiosk mode so it lands beside booked appointments. Setora does not provide customer self-check-in or a customer-facing queue.
Why does USD billing matter?
If a platform bills UK shops in dollars, exchange rates can change the final monthly amount. Setora bills UK customers in pounds, with one platform price per location.
Does Setora sync with Google Calendar?
If Google Calendar is central to your setup, check the current integration options before switching. Setora's core calendar is built around your staff, services and Booking Page.
Is Setora a good alternative to Setmore for barbershops?
Yes, if you want a platform built around UK shop routines, flat location pricing and portable customer data. Setmore can still suit owners who only need a general appointment scheduler.
