NT$5,000 Before You Even Start — The Real First-Year Cost of SayDou
SayDou's NT$330/person/month all-inclusive plan is genuinely good value for long-term users — but the NT$5,000 first-year setup fee means you're betting on the system before you've tried it. What if it doesn't work for you? Dolyu is US$15/person/month, zero setup fee, 14-day trial — continue if you like it.

Zero Setup Fee, Transparent Billing — Ready to Use From Day One
SayDou's NT$330/person/month covers all features, but the first year requires a NT$5,000 setup fee (includes one onboarding session); auto-push is NT$499/year (optional); Google or Instagram booking integration is approx. NT$6,000/year each (optional add-ons). Minimum first-year cost for a solo studio: NT$3,960 (monthly fees) + NT$5,000 (setup fee) = approx. NT$8,960. Dolyu is US$15/person/month (approx. NT$480), zero setup fee, approx. NT$5,760 for the first year — same amount every month, no hidden add-ons.
Open and Use — Set Up Services and Start Taking Bookings in 5 Minutes
SayDou has 12+ feature modules and is comprehensive, but the learning curve is steeper — the official onboarding session (included in the NT$5,000 setup fee) is evidence of how much time it takes to get up to speed. Dolyu focuses on core appointment management with a design philosophy of "open and use" — most users have their services set up and are taking bookings in 5 minutes, no manual required.
Reports Focused on Core Metrics — Act at a Glance When You're Busy
SayDou provides AI client segmentation and payroll reports — data-rich and suited to mid-to-large teams with dedicated analysts. Dolyu's four reports (revenue, services, staff, clients) focus on the core decision-making metrics, letting a busy solo operator or small team spot what needs adjusting without having to "learn how to read" the reports.
A Refined Interface With Global Timezone and Multi-Currency Support
Dolyu's interface follows the same design standards as Notion and Asana — clear visual hierarchy and fluid interaction logic so you can set up services and start taking bookings in 5 minutes, no manual needed. It also supports custom timezones and multi-currency checkout — one system for clients anywhere in the world.
Dolyu vs SayDou 神美: Which one is right for you?
SayDou is one of the most feature-complete platforms in Taiwan's beauty industry — NT$330/person/month, unlimited bookings, AI client segmentation — genuinely good value for long-term users. But that NT$5,000 setup fee is a commitment with no way back, and add-on pricing makes the total cost hard to predict. Dolyu is US$15/person/month, zero setup fee — try it for 14 days and let the experience give you the answer, rather than letting the first payment make the decision for you.

Dolyu is US$15/person/month (approx. NT$480), zero setup fee, monthly billing, no contract, 14-day free trial. SayDou requires a NT$5,000 setup fee in the first year plus NT$330/person/month — minimum first-year cost for a solo studio is NT$8,960. Dolyu's first year is approx. NT$5,760, saving NT$3,200 — and you don't have to pay NT$5,000 before you've even tried it.
Dolyu is designed to open and use — set up services and start taking bookings in 5 minutes, no manual or training course needed. SayDou's 12+ modules have a steeper learning curve; the onboarding session included in the setup fee says as much.
Dolyu has four built-in reports — revenue overview, service analysis, staff performance, and client behavior — designed to tell you at a glance which services earn the most and which clients are worth investing in. SayDou also has reporting, but Dolyu's advantage is that the reports focus on actionable metrics and are easy to read without having to learn how to interpret them.
Dolyu is built for 1–2 person studios: live in 5 minutes, flat transparent pricing, all core features included. You don't need to pay NT$5,000 upfront before you know if the system works for you. Start with Dolyu's 14-day free trial and let the experience give you the answer.

夯客 Hotcake
Hotcake is built around LINE booking with a NT$0 starter plan and 3,000+ brands on board. Booking happens inside LINE — there's no independent branded booking page, and the feature set focuses on the LINE ecosystem. Dolyu is US$15/person/month and provides a standalone branded booking page (with portfolio display), four-dimension analytics, and a refined interface — supporting LINE notifications while keeping your own brand traffic.
Freetime
How many no-shows did you have last month? Every missed appointment costs you not just that session's revenue — it costs the client you could have served in that slot. Freetime at NT$300/month is great value, but it has no online deposit mechanism. Dolyu costs about NT$180 more per month and lets clients pay a deposit at the time of booking — one prevented no-show more than covers the price difference.
QLiEER 客立樂
QLiEER uses annual tiered plans (Seedling from NT$950/month, billed annually), targeting beauty chain stores with POS hardware integration and staff payroll management. Dolyu is US$15/person/month (approx. NT$480), monthly billing, no contract, with core appointment management, reports, and branded page all included — suited to solo operators through small studios.
17FIT
17FIT uses annual contracts with custom pricing — no publicly listed monthly fee, minimum one year, no refunds.

BeautinQ 美業歐巴
BeautinQ uses a modular plan structure with a 100-order/month cap on the starter plan.

Dolyu is US$15/person/month — pricing publicly listed, unlimited orders, all core features included, self-serve setup in 5 minutes.
BookNow 預約系統
BookNow offers four plans starting at NT$399, tiered by monthly booking volume, including e-vouchers, payroll calculation, and Google Calendar sync. Each plan has a monthly booking cap — the lowest plan allows 1,000 bookings — and you'll need to upgrade if you hit the ceiling in peak season. Dolyu is US$15/person/month (approx. NT$480) with no booking limit and four-dimension reports and branded page all included.
樂創約
Onlinebooking.tw has a free plan (30 LINE new bookings/month) and an advanced plan at NT$399/month, including auto client segmentation and SMS reminders. No portfolio display on the booking page; reports are fairly basic. Dolyu is US$15/person/month with a branded booking page that includes portfolio display and four-dimension reports — flat fee regardless of usage.
Fresha
Fresha uses a transaction commission model: 2.79% + US$0.20 per online payment, 20% commission on Marketplace new client first visits, and advanced features like Loyalty sold separately. No LINE integration, no Traditional Chinese interface, no Chinese-language support. Dolyu is US$15/person/month flat, zero commission, LINE integration, Traditional Chinese, custom timezone, and multi-currency all included.
SimplyBook.me
SimplyBook.me is an international booking platform with a booking-count limit on the free plan and volume-based billing on paid plans. Feature Apps are purchased individually. No LINE integration, Traditional Chinese is machine-translated, no Chinese-language support. Dolyu is US$15/person/month with deep LINE integration, native Traditional Chinese, custom timezone, and multi-currency support.
Calendly
If someone told you "Calendly is a booking system too" — they're not wrong, but it's a different kind of tool. Calendly is for scheduling B2B meetings. Dolyu is for managing clients, sending LINE notifications, and reading four-dimension reports. Once you understand that difference, the choice is straightforward.
Setmore
Setmore's free plan with unlimited seats sounds compelling — until you discover: English-only interface, no LINE integration, and online payment not included in the free plan. Using Setmore in Taiwan means working around problems it was never designed to solve for you. Dolyu is US$15/person/month — Traditional Chinese, LINE push notifications, online deposits — none of those three friction points from day one.
