18 Best Calendly Alternatives

Zoho Bookings

Zoho Bookings handles one-on-one, group, and resource bookings, with payment collection through gateways such as Stripe and PayPal, and it connects tightly to Zoho CRM and other Zoho apps. There's a free plan and low-cost paid plans billed per staff member. It's the natural choice if your business already runs on Zoho; outside that ecosystem it's a capable but less polished alternative to Calendly.

Acuity Scheduling

Acuity Scheduling (part of Squarespace) is built for service businesses rather than sales meetings. It handles complex availability, intake forms, packages, memberships, gift certificates, and card-on-file payments, and it embeds easily in Squarespace sites. There's no free plan, and the entry plan is limited to a single calendar, so teams need a higher tier.

Setmore

Setmore is an appointment scheduler with a free plan, iOS and Android apps, and integrations that let customers book from Instagram, Facebook, and Google. It supports staff calendars, reminders, and payments through Square, Stripe, or PayPal. It suits small service teams that want an inexpensive, easy-to-use booking tool; advanced workflow automation is lighter than Calendly's.

10to8 Scheduling

10to8 (now Sign In Scheduling) is a cloud scheduler for service businesses, with a customizable booking site, staff calendars, email and SMS reminders, and two-way client messaging. It has a free tier with a monthly appointment limit, and its paid plans add more reminders and staff.

SimplyBook.me

SimplyBook.me offers booking pages in many languages and supports a wide range of payment gateways. Most extra features, such as classes, packages, memberships, and resource booking, come as add-ons you switch on. It has a free tier with a monthly booking limit; costs rise as you add bookings and add-ons.

Hubspot Meetings

HubSpot Meetings shares a booking link and logs every meeting on the contact record in HubSpot's CRM. A basic version comes with HubSpot's free tools; team features such as round-robin and group links are part of paid Sales Hub plans. It's the obvious choice for teams already on HubSpot, but it isn't sold separately from HubSpot.

YouCanBookMe

YouCanBookMe turns your existing Google or Microsoft calendar into a bookable page; it has no calendar of its own. It's popular with universities, tutors, and teams that want highly customizable booking forms. There's a free tier, and paid plans are priced per connected calendar.

Doodle

Doodle is one of the earliest online scheduling tools and is best known for group polls: you propose times and participants vote. It also offers booking pages for one-on-one meetings. The free plan shows ads and limits features, and calendar sync and branding require a paid plan.

vCita

vcita is a client management platform for service businesses that combines online booking with a client portal, invoicing, payments, and email and SMS campaigns. It covers more of the business than Calendly does, but costs more than a basic scheduler, and some users find its calendar views less intuitive.

Appointment

"Appointment" is a generic name used by several small appointment-booking apps rather than one well-known product. Most offer 24/7 online booking, reminders, and prepayment. If you're considering one, check which vendor is behind it, how long it has been maintained, and what it costs before switching.

Mixmax

Mixmax is a sales engagement tool for Gmail rather than a dedicated scheduler. It lets you embed available times or a meeting poll inside an email, alongside sequences, templates, and email tracking, and integrates with CRMs such as Salesforce and HubSpot. It makes sense for sales teams that want scheduling built into outreach, not for service businesses taking client bookings.

HitCal

HitCal is a small calendar and scheduling app for iPhone that lets you share your free slots with others. It covers basic personal scheduling; it doesn't offer the team features, integrations, or payments that Calendly does. Check that it's still maintained before relying on it.

X.ai

X.ai was an AI scheduling assistant that negotiated meeting times over email. The standalone service was discontinued after the company was acquired in 2021, so it's no longer an option; tools like Clockwise and Reclaim.ai now cover AI-assisted scheduling.

Woven

Woven was a calendar app with scheduling links, group polls, and time analytics. It's a smaller player than the other tools here, so confirm it's still available and supported before choosing it.

Where

Where is a Slack-based tool for coordinating who is in the office on which days, rather than a Calendly-style booking tool. It helps hybrid teams plan in-person days and desk use. Consider it only if your scheduling problem is office attendance, not external meetings.

Monday.com

monday.com is a work management platform for projects and workflows, not a booking tool. It has calendar and timeline views and integrates with calendar apps, but it doesn't give customers a booking page the way Calendly does. It's a complement to a scheduler, not a replacement.

Pick Time

Picktime is a free-to-start appointment scheduler with staff calendars, class and resource booking, and payment options including PayPal on its free plan. It suits small businesses that want a low-cost booking page; its integrations and automation are more limited than Calendly's.

Clockwise

Clockwise is an AI calendar assistant that rearranges flexible internal meetings to create blocks of focus time across a team. It also offers scheduling links, but its main value is optimizing internal calendars rather than booking external clients. It has free and paid plans.
