Switch if you want

Switch to HueSuite if…

Stay on Salonized if…
You actively want Treatwell marketplace bookings and accept the commission on new clients, or you're a beauty or nail business with little colour work and Salonized already fits.

Salonized questions,
answered.
Is HueSuite a good Salonized alternative?
For hair salons focused on colour, yes. Salonized is an all-round salon tool (€35/mo plus €5 per extra team member) that is now part of Treatwell. HueSuite starts at €9.99/mo (Pro €30), has no marketplace at all, and adds colour-specific tools: a searchable formula vault, gram-level stock that auto-deducts from every formula, and an AI colour advisor.
Is Salonized owned by Treatwell?
Yes. Salonized's own site is published by Treatwell Salonized NL B.V., and its pricing page offers the Treatwell marketplace as an add-on: 35% commission on new Treatwell bookings plus a 2% transaction fee on prepaid online bookings (as listed in October 2026). HueSuite is independent and has no marketplace — clients find you through your own channels and stay yours.
How much would a 3-person salon pay?
Salonized lists €35/mo for one team member and €5 for each additional one, so 3 team members is €45/mo (10% less if you pay annually). HueSuite is €29.97/mo for 3 calendar seats on Link, or €49.98/mo on Pro, which also includes the colour formula vault and gram-level inventory. Prices exclude VAT, SMS and payment fees.
How long does moving from Salonized to HueSuite take?
An afternoon for most salons. Export your client list from Salonized as a CSV (or ask Salonized support for an export), import it into HueSuite — duplicates are detected automatically — then set up services, staff and hours. Migration help is free.
What does HueSuite charge on payments?
0% commission on bookings, cash, walk-ins and in-person card payments. HueSuite takes 1% only on online payments (deposits and online checkouts) made through Stripe; Stripe's own processing fee is separate.
Is there a contract or setup fee?
No. HueSuite is monthly, cancel any time. Setup, migration and onboarding are free, and you can try it for 7 days with no credit card.
