Cal.com is the open-source Calendly alternative that overtook it on features while undercutting on price. Free tier offers unlimited event types with 100+ integrations — dramatically better than Calendly's 1-event-type free plan. Teams at $12/user annual is 25% cheaper than Calendly Teams ($16). Organizations at $28/user annual with SOC 2/HIPAA compliance is a fraction of Calendly Enterprise ($15k+/year).

Calendly is the default scheduling link tool — if you send booking links, people have seen Calendly. Standard at $10/seat annual is the paid tier most individual users need. Teams at $16/seat annual adds round-robin and lead routing for sales teams. Enterprise pricing at $15k+/year is only for companies with serious SSO/compliance requirements.
Best-polished booking UX in the category — your customers/candidates know how it works
Calendar connections are robust across Google, Outlook, iCloud, Office 365
Payment processing built into Standard tier — paid consultations without separate Stripe integration
SavvyCal is the premium-positioned scheduling tool. Basic at $12/user/mo matches Cal.com Teams but Premium at $20/user/mo unlocks the features SavvyCal is known for: delegation (assistants can book on your behalf), ranked availability (preferred times surface first), time blocking, and custom domains. For executives, investors, or consultants who book meetings as a core job function, SavvyCal's UX is worth the premium.
Calendar overlay UX is genuinely superior — invitees see their own calendar next to yours when booking
Delegation on Premium is unique — assistants can book on your behalf with preserved preferences
Ranked availability (preferred times first) is pattern-optimal for experienced schedulers
Doodle's original product is meeting polls — send a poll with possible times, attendees vote on preferences, best time wins. For groups where single 1:1 scheduling links don't work (committees, large teams, recurring cross-functional meetings), Doodle polls are unmatched. Pro at $4.49/mo annual is the cheapest scheduling tool in this comparison but for a different use case than Calendly.
Best meeting poll UX — sending 'when are you available?' across 10+ stakeholders is effortless
Pro at $4.49/mo annual is the cheapest serious scheduling tool
Free tier exists (with ads) — good for one-off coordination tasks
