This page compares Skaala and easyTable (easyTable: €67/mo rolling → €60/mo annual → €53/mo on a 2-year deal, 1.6% fee on prepayments only, SMS extra (easytable.com/pricing, verified 9 June 2026). Free trial month with no card; they also cover the notice period on your old contract. Skaala: Essential at 599 SEK/mo (the AI answers the phone; table booking not included) and Business at 1,499 SEK/mo with built-in table booking — floor plan, Stripe deposits, waitlist. Published monthly prices excl. VAT, no per-guest fee, 7-day trial.) based on public sources.
Skaala is an AI receptionist plus integrated operations platform — booking, CRM, calendar, and payments in one service — with one local phone number per team on every plan. What easyTable actually is, and which categories it competes in, is shown in the comparison table above. What the two have in common and where they diverge isn't the same for every business — use this page as decision support, not as a one-sided sales argument.
Skaala is likely a good choice when you want incoming calls to become bookings, customer records, follow-ups, or transfers to the right person without operating separate systems for telephony, booking, and CRM. It is less relevant if you already have a dedicated reception function that must answer every first call with a human, or if easyTable delivers a specific niche function (e.g., pure PBX, pure booking platform, or a human-staffed answering service) that is the whole job you need solved.
Essential costs $60/mo in the US, £50/mo in the UK, 599 SEK/mo in Sweden and 599 NOK/mo in Norway, excl. VAT, with 50 minutes a month included. The trial is 7 days and requires you to add a payment method at signup — you're not charged until day 8 and can cancel anytime before then from the dashboard. Setting up the AI agent, number, and call forwarding typically takes under a business day, and you do not need to switch your existing PBX or telecom provider to start.
