Workee vs Boulevard:
you already paid for the front desk
Boulevard is a serious front-of-house platform (point of sale, staff management, the desk itself), from $143 a month billed annually for one location with up to five professionals, with digital forms from $65 on top. None of that touches the moment before a client reaches your desk. Workee is that moment: booking on your own website, three steps, no client account, landing in the calendar your team already works from.1
Everything Boulevard does starts after the booking
Your front desk is excellent with the people who get to it. The question is how many never do, because the booking form asked them for an account first.
A typical booking widget
An account before the calendar
- Clicks Book on your website
- Create an account
- Choose a password
- Open the verification email
- Log back in
- Finally, pick a service and a time
The Workee widget
No account, no password, no app
- Picks a service
- Picks a time
- Name and phone — booked
Every step above the fold is a step where a first-time client decides to call somewhere else instead.

Keep Boulevard if these describe you
These are real reasons to pick Boulevard over Workee. If two or more apply, Boulevard is probably the better fit, and we would rather you knew that before a migration than after one. None of these is a reason not to run Workee as well.
Your front desk is the bottleneck, not your calendar
Boulevard is built around the front-of-house shift: check-in, checkout, tipping, staff assignment and the till. If a busy Saturday overwhelms the desk rather than the calendar having gaps, that is the problem Boulevard was designed for.
You need ePrescribe in the same system
Boulevard charges $45 per prescriber with unlimited support staff. Workee does not offer prescribing at all. For a practice with prescribing medical directors who want one login, that is decisive.
You run a large multi-service floor
Unlimited professionals from Premier up, priced per location, suits a spa running many providers across many service categories at once.
Choose Workee if the gaps are in your calendar 👉
Bottom line: For a practice whose bottleneck is a quiet booking page, not a busy front desk, Workee usually wins. For a large multi-service floor that needs full POS, retail and staff management in one system, keep Boulevard.
Keep your website
Your site does not get rebuilt. Workee embeds as a widget (one treatment, a category, or the whole menu), and you choose what appears where from your dashboard, without a developer and without touching Boulevard.
Booking with no client account
Service, time, name, phone. No sign-up, no password, no verification email. It matters most for the person who found you on Instagram and is deciding tonight, not for the regular who already has your number.
We build the flow with you
We go through how your clinic books (consults, deposits, packages, which provider does what), and set the flow up with you, then train the desk on it. It is not a login and a help center.
You do not have to move everything
Boulevard keeps running the front of house. Workee handles the website booking and the follow-up. Nothing gets exported, nothing gets retrained, and no one has to pick a side this quarter.
An AI front desk that works 24/7
It answers, books and follows up at 2am and on Sundays: win-back for clients who have not been in for a while, birthday offers, seasonal campaigns and rebooking, without anyone at the desk.
One AI layer for every channel
Lead forms, review requests, SMS, email and Instagram DMs run from one place, so a lead from an ad and a client from your website are handled the same way instead of living in four separate tools.
🪑
See it on your own booking page before you change anything.
We will put the widget on a copy of your page, walk your front desk through it, and show you what a first-time client would see. Boulevard keeps running the whole time.
🔗
Nobody has to switch. Both keep running.
Each point above is a reason to keep what you run now. Workee can sit alongside it.
All new bookings in the calendar your desk already watches
Workee takes the booking on your website and passes it to the calendar your clinic already runs on. Nothing new for the front desk to learn, no second screen to keep an eye on, and no two clients in the same room.
Bookings land in the calendar your team already uses
Clients book on your own website, no account needed
Deposits and no-show fees taken at booking
HIPAA and PCI compliant
You can run it this way and stop there. If you do decide to move everything across, the steps are below. See the migration steps
Switching from Boulevard to Workee
This is the shape of a full migration, and it usually takes four to six weeks, which is one rebooking cycle with both systems still up. Everything specific to your account, such as what your export contains and what your renewal date is, has to be confirmed with Boulevard directly rather than taken from a comparison page.
- 1
Confirm what happens to your card-on-file arrangements
Boulevard publishes only a starting card rate of 2.65%, and stored payment credentials rarely move between processors. Ask both vendors, in writing, what happens to cards on file, deposits and outstanding packages at cutover.
- 2
Get the client export before you give notice
Ask your Boulevard account manager for a full client export and confirm in writing which fields it contains and in what format. A client list you cannot retrieve is the most expensive thing to lose in a migration, and your leverage to ask for it disappears the moment you cancel.
- 3
Separate the front-of-house work from the client record
Tips, staff assignment rules, service menus and till configuration are Boulevard-shaped and mostly do not travel. Client names, contact details, future appointments and card-on-file arrangements are what has to move. Decide which side each item falls on before you plan a date.
- 4
Run both systems for one full booking cycle
Keep Boulevard readable while Workee takes bookings. Plan on four to six weeks, long enough for a typical rebooking interval to come round once and for the gaps to appear while you can still fix them.
- 5
Move the booking link last
Your website, Google Business Profile and Instagram link switch only once the new calendar is populated and your team can work it without thinking. Nothing about a migration is visible to clients until this step, so take it late.
Booking works differently in each of these, and Workee is set up differently for each. Start with the one that looks like your practice.
Med spas
Consults, packages and series, with a deposit on the treatments that need one.
Dental practices
Recall intervals and hygiene visits that have to come round on schedule, not when someone remembers.
Massage therapy
Short repeat cycles, where one rebooking that never happens is a month of that room gone.
Estheticians
Solo rooms and small studios, where the booking page is the entire front desk.
Weight loss clinics
Programs booked as a course of visits rather than one appointment at a time.
Wellness businesses
Several practitioners and rooms, where availability has to line up with both.
Workee vs Boulevard: common questions
- Can I use Workee alongside Boulevard?
Yes. Workee can run beside an existing platform, handling online booking, reminders, rebooking and marketing while Boulevard keeps the front desk. Practices that are not ready for a full migration usually start this way and decide later. - Does Boulevard charge extra for forms?On the salon and spa plans, yes: a Forms add-on starts at $65 per month per location, and is included in Prestige. The medspa tiers include forms and charting. Practices needing digital intake and consent should add the add-on to the Essentials and Premier prices when comparing. Figures quoted from the Boulevard pricing page, accessed 18 October 2026.
- Can clients book without creating an account?Yes. The Workee widget books in three steps: service, time, name and phone. No sign-up, no password, no verification email. That is the difference for someone who has never been to your clinic and is choosing between you and whoever answers first.
- Do I have to migrate my data to use Workee?No. You can start with booking only: the widget goes on the website, appointments arrive in the calendar the team already uses, and Boulevard keeps doing everything it does today. Moving fully is a separate decision, later or never.
- Will Workee work on my existing website?Yes, that is the normal setup. Workee embeds as a widget on the site you already have, whether that is WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, Webflow or something custom. From your dashboard you choose whether it offers one treatment, a category, or the full menu.
- Is Workee cheaper than Boulevard?It depends on your configuration, and Workee does not publish a rate card. Pricing is custom, based on your clinic’s needs, with no contracts. Boulevard’s published price is a solid starting point for the comparison, but add the Forms and QuickBooks add-ons at $65 and $45 per location per month if you need them, then compare the two totals for the setup you will run.
- Does Workee replace a point-of-sale system?Workee handles booking, deposits and payments for appointments. Boulevard’s point-of-sale and retail depth was built over years for large spa floors with significant product sales, and it is ahead there. If retail is a meaningful share of your revenue, weigh that carefully.
- What should I ask before signing with either vendor?Four things, in writing: what the total is for your exact provider count and location count, what the card processing rate is at your monthly volume, what the notice period is, and what a full data export contains if you leave. Any vendor that will not answer the fourth one is a vendor you cannot leave.
