Comparison
GigComs vs Spreadsheets & Email
Most DJs start by managing bookings in a spreadsheet and confirming gigs over email. It works — until it does not. A missed email, a double-booking, a lost contract, or a forgotten invoice. Here is why purpose-built booking software saves you time and money.
Feature
GigComs
Spreadsheets & Email
Booking Creation
Type "Book Club XYZ, Friday, €1200" and the AI creates the booking with all details.
Manually enter each field in a spreadsheet row. Copy-paste from emails.
Contracts
AI generates a professional contract from booking details. E-signature included.
Create contracts manually in Word/Google Docs. Email back and forth for signatures.
Double-Booking Prevention
Automatic conflict detection. Cannot book two gigs on the same date.
Manual calendar checking. Errors happen when you are busy.
Invoicing
One-click invoice generation from booking data. Tracks deposits and balances.
Create invoices manually. Track payments in a separate sheet.
Client Communication
Automated confirmations, reminders, and follow-ups.
Write every email manually. Easy to forget follow-ups.
Public Booking Page
Clients find you, check availability, and request bookings online.
No public presence. Clients must email or DM you.
Payment Tracking
Visual dashboard showing what is paid, pending, and overdue.
Color-coded cells in a spreadsheet. Breaks when the sheet gets large.
Searchability
Find any booking, client, or venue instantly by searching.
Ctrl+F through a growing spreadsheet. Multiple tabs for different years.
Verdict
Spreadsheets are free and flexible, but they do not scale. The moment you have more than 10 active bookings, a missed contract or forgotten invoice costs more than any software subscription. GigComs is free during early access and replaces your spreadsheet, email templates, contract generator, and invoice tracker — all in one AI-powered tool.
