ResDiary, held up against three rivals that aren't us.
Three focused write-ups, each holding ResDiary against one other UK booking platform on price, contracts and what you actually get for the money. If you're weighing up two platforms that aren't Seatly, this is the shortlist.
Seatly makes a competing product, so read these the way you would read anything written by a rival: check the figures. Every page sources its numbers and the date they were last verified, and our own pitch is one section near the bottom of each, labelled as such.
Rival comparison
ResDiary vs Dojo
ResDiary publishes its price list and runs an annual rolling term; Dojo bundles payments, EPOS and bookings behind reseller-listed pricing and a 12-month minimum, so the real choice is a diary versus a payments relationship.

Rival comparison
ResDiary vs OpenTable
ResDiary is a published-price subscription with 0% commission by its own account, while OpenTable is quote-only in the UK and charges per seated cover for diners its network brings you — software for demand you already have, or paid demand generation.

Rival comparison
ResDiary vs TheFork
ResDiary is a published-price subscription with 0% commission by its own account, while TheFork is quote-only and charges commission only on the bookings its own network brings you, so the deciding factor is how many of your covers actually come through TheFork.

Comparing a platform to Seatly instead?
The pages above hold two other platforms against each other, with Seatly disclosed but not the focus. If you want to see how a specific platform compares to Seatly directly, the head-to-head hub covers OpenTable, ResDiary, Quandoo, Dojo, DesignMyNight, Bookatable and SimpleERB.
Or if you're still narrowing down which platforms to weigh up at all, the buyer's guide compares ten UK platforms against the same six criteria — pricing, contracts, data ownership, embedding, GDPR, feature fit — without the marketing fluff.
