Cal Vs Calendly

is there any reason to prefer one over the other? Have you used both or either?


My needs are simple. I want to be able to add two accounts and let someone put a meeting on my calendar from a link. I think both cover the use case -- which should I use?

@Cal.com has a more generous free plan, is open-source, and is bootstrapped. Those 3 make it my pick!

@steveb Solid reasons.

also just realized cal is totally free for my usecase, vs 10/mo on calendly to support multiple calendars. seems like basically a no brainer..

cal.com because your need are simple —now.
But your usage will evolve over the years, and I personally found cal.com more flexible.

We had this discussion at Croct several months ago, and it was the exact same use case. I was personally/manually using Calendly, and we decided to move forward with cal.com for the new website. We're absolutely happy with our decision :)

Gotta say Cal.com is great. I prefer it over calendly since it has a more generous free plan. That and I can add as many calendars as I want. Makes sharing my availability much easier

As @steveb mentioned his 3 reasons, I am also for these arguments + Cal has more UX/UI friendly environment so it has always been easier to me to create schedule, set prices for a call etc.
