Explore a detailed comparison of Artistu and ABOSS to see which one is the best booking system for your agency. This comparison will walk through what both platforms are, what they do and who they are for. We will compare features, pricing, integrations, customer support and more. Whether you are just browsing around or looking for your next artist management system - this comparison will help you make an informed decision.
Artistu was built for smaller and mid-sized agencies that need to move quickly and keep things simple. Everything about the platform is designed to reduce friction, fast setup, easy templates, and instant support when you need it.
ABOSS, from Amsterdam, has been around since 2014 and has well-known names among its customers. It is calendar-first, with deals, advancing, a mobile app that works offline and unlimited users on the agency plan. Pricing is €70 per month plus €15 for every active artist, with 20% off on annual billing.
That keeps ABOSS affordable for a small roster, but the price grows with every artist you add: around €220 per month for 10 artists and €370 for 20. eSignatures run through a third party and are charged per document, and setup and data import are paid extras.
If you work calendar-first with a small roster, ABOSS does the job. If your roster is growing, or you want eSignatures, Peppol e-invoicing and an MCP server included at one flat price, Artistu is the stronger match.
More and more agencies are switching to Artistu. And that's for good reasons:
For agencies that want to get things done fast, with no surprises on price or support, Artistu offers everything you need without overcomplicating the process. You get clear billing, a smooth interface and support that actually responds.
ABOSS charges per active artist, so the bill goes up as your roster grows, and every signed agreement costs extra. With Artistu you pay €49 per month for the whole agency, with unlimited users and artists, eSignatures included and support that usually replies within 30 minutes.
With Artistu, you pay less, move faster, and keep things human.
You don’t have to adjust your agency to fit the tool. Artistu adapts to the way you already work
