Calendly Alternatives in 2026 (Free and Paid)

The best Calendly alternative depends on one question: do you need round-robin across a team, or a single booking link per person? For a single link, Cal.com's free plan or the scheduling built into a workspace tool like Atrix covers it. For round-robin, Cal.com Teams ($12 a seat billed yearly) and SavvyCal Basic ($10) both cost less than Calendly Teams ($16), as of October 2026.

We run a small company on these tools, and we have paid for three of the five below at different points. This post compares them on the things that actually decide the choice: price per seat, whether team scheduling is included, whether you can put the page on your own domain, and what happens to the booking after it lands.

What Calendly costs and where it limits you

Calendly's pricing page in October 2026 shows four plans: Free, Standard at $10 a seat a month (17% less billed yearly), Teams at $16 a seat (20% less yearly), and Enterprise from $15,000 a year with a 50-seat minimum. Round-robin and team scheduling sit on Teams and above. Turning off the "Powered by Calendly" badge is allowed on Standard, Teams and Enterprise, per Calendly's help centre (updated 13 October 2026).

One claim you will read everywhere is that Calendly has no custom domains. We checked. Calendly's pricing page lists "Domain control" on Enterprise, and its help centre has an article on verifying a domain with TXT or CNAME records, but that feature is about controlling which accounts belong to your organisation, not about serving booking pages from booking.yourcompany.com. We could not find an official Calendly page that offers custom-domain booking pages on any plan, so the practical answer is: assume your links stay on calendly.com, and if a white-label domain matters, that is a reason to look elsewhere.

The other limit is what Calendly is not. It is a scheduling layer. The booking lands in your calendar, and the person who booked does not become a contact, a deal or a candidate anywhere unless you connect a second tool.

Calendly alternatives compared (prices as of October 2026)

Tool	Free plan	Paid price per seat per month	Round-robin	Own domain for booking pages	What the booking connects to
Calendly	Yes, 1 event type	Standard $10, Teams $16	Teams and up	Not on any published plan	Integrations only
Cal.com	Yes, individuals, unlimited event types	Teams $12 billed yearly ($16 monthly)	Teams	Yes, and self-hostable	Integrations, API, webhooks
SavvyCal	Sign-up free; booking needs a paid plan	Basic $10 billed yearly ($12 monthly), Premium $17 ($20 monthly)	Basic and up	Premium only	Integrations
Microsoft Bookings	No standalone plan	Included in Microsoft 365 Business Basic, $7 per user billed yearly	Yes, staff assignment	No	Outlook and Teams
HubSpot Meetings	Yes, 1 personal link with HubSpot branding	Starter from $7 a seat (promotional, regular $20); round-robin needs Professional	Professional	No	HubSpot CRM contacts
Atrix	No free plan; 7-day trial	Builder $39 for 5 seats, Studio $149 for 15 seats	No	No	Calendar, CRM contacts, candidates, chat in the same workspace

Notes on the table. Cal.com's own pricing page refused our fetch, so its prices come from Cal.com's blog posts published in 2026, which consistently state $12 yearly and $16 monthly for Teams; check cal.com/pricing before you buy. Microsoft's Business Basic price rose from $6 to $7 on 1 July 2026 per Microsoft's licensing announcement. HubSpot's Starter promotion is shown as "starts at $7" against a $20 figure for new customers only.

Cal.com vs Calendly: the open-source option

Cal.com is the alternative most people search for, and the comparison is simple. Cal.com's free plan is for one person with unlimited event types and calendars, which is more generous than Calendly Free's single event type. Teams at $12 a seat billed yearly adds round-robin, collective and managed event types, routing forms and shared availability. Organizations is $28 a seat yearly with SSO and SCIM.

The two things Cal.com has that Calendly does not: an open-source core you can self-host, and booking pages on your own domain. Both matter if you are an agency or a studio that wants booking links branded as yours, or a developer who wants to embed scheduling in a product through an API.

Where Calendly still wins: the polish of the booking experience for people who have never seen your link, and the depth of its integrations marketplace. If you send links to enterprise buyers who already know Calendly, the familiarity is worth something.

SavvyCal: round-robin without the Teams tier

SavvyCal's Basic plan at $10 a seat billed yearly includes round-robin and shared-availability links, which Calendly only sells on Teams at $16. Premium at $17 adds booking pages on your own domain (booking.yourcompany.com/you) and custom sending domains. SavvyCal's distinctive feature is the overlay: a person booking can lay their own calendar over yours and pick a slot that works for both, which cuts the back-and-forth on calls with busy people.

There is no self-serve free trial. SavvyCal lets you sign up and set links up for free, but bookings through your links require Basic or Premium, with a 30-day money-back guarantee instead of a trial.

Microsoft Bookings: already paid for if you run on Microsoft 365

If your company is on Microsoft 365 Business Basic ($7 a user a month billed yearly, $8.40 monthly, as of Microsoft's July 2026 price list) or any higher plan, you already have Bookings. It supports a booking page per service, staff assignment across a team, and buffers, and it writes to Outlook and Teams. It is the cheapest option in this post for a team that already pays Microsoft, because its cost is zero on top.

Its limits are the ones you would expect from a bundled tool: the booking page design is fixed, it has no custom domain, and it assumes everyone being booked has a Microsoft 365 mailbox. Teams on Google Workspace should skip it.

HubSpot Meetings: the right pick if HubSpot is already your CRM

HubSpot's free CRM includes a meetings tool with one personal booking link that carries HubSpot branding. Starter (promotional "starts at $7" a seat for new customers, against a $20 figure on the same page) allows multiple links and removes the branding. Round-robin team links need Sales Hub Professional, which the Sales Hub pricing page lists at $90 a seat a month billed annually plus a $1,500 one-time onboarding fee.

The reason to choose it is not scheduling; it is that each booking creates or updates a contact in your CRM with the meeting logged. If you run on HubSpot, the free link is enough for a founder, and nothing else in this post can match that CRM integration. If you do not, Professional is an expensive way to get round-robin.

Atrix: booking links inside the workspace, not a separate tool

Atrix is the option we build, so read this section with that in mind. Every Atrix plan includes a calendar with public booking links and two-way sync with Google and Outlook calendars. A booking lands as an event with the attendee attached, and because the CRM, hiring pipeline and team chat are in the same workspace, the person who booked can be linked to a company, a deal or a candidate without an integration.

Its limits are real. There is no round-robin, no routing form and no custom domain for booking pages. There is also no free plan: Builder is $39 a month for 5 seats and 100 AI runs, Studio is $149 for 15 seats and 500 runs, and yearly billing takes 20% off. If scheduling is the only thing you need, Atrix is the wrong purchase. If you want one tool for work, docs, CRM and calendar for a team of two to fifteen, the booking links come free with it. The scheduling feature page lists what the calendar does and does not do.

Round-robin or a single link: how to decide

Count who gets booked. If one person per link, every tool in this post works, and the free plans of Cal.com, HubSpot and Calendly are enough.
Check whether bookings should rotate. Sales teams and support teams usually need round-robin. Founders, consultants and recruiters usually do not. Round-robin is the single feature that pushes you from $0 to $10 or $16 a seat.
Decide whether the domain matters. Agencies and studios sending links to clients often want their own domain. That rules out Calendly, Bookings and Atrix, and leaves Cal.com and SavvyCal Premium.
Ask where the booking should end up. If the answer is "in my CRM", choose the tool whose CRM you already use: HubSpot Meetings for HubSpot, or Atrix if the CRM and calendar are in the same workspace. Otherwise, a standalone scheduler plus an integration is fine.
Price it at your real seat count. Five people on Calendly Teams is $80 a month billed monthly; on Cal.com Teams, $60 yearly; on SavvyCal Basic, $50 yearly; on Atrix Builder, $39 with the rest of the workspace included.

FAQ

What is the best free Calendly alternative?

Cal.com's free plan, as of October 2026. It gives one person unlimited event types and calendar connections, where Calendly Free allows one event type. HubSpot's free CRM includes one booking link if you also want a free CRM. Neither free plan includes round-robin.

Is Cal.com really free?

For individuals, yes, with no time limit. Team features, round-robin and collective events need the Teams plan at $12 a seat a month billed yearly or $16 monthly, according to Cal.com's 2026 blog posts. Self-hosting the open-source core is free but you run the server.

Does Calendly let you use your own domain?

We could not find any Calendly plan that serves booking pages from your own domain. Calendly's "domain control" feature on Enterprise verifies a company domain to manage which accounts belong to the organisation; it does not rebrand links. Cal.com and SavvyCal Premium do offer booking pages on your own domain.

Which Calendly alternative has a CRM built in?

HubSpot Meetings (HubSpot CRM) and Atrix (CRM, calendar, hiring and chat in one workspace). The difference is depth: HubSpot's CRM is a full sales and marketing suite; Atrix's CRM is companies, contacts and a five-stage pipeline aimed at teams of 2 to 15. See booking links with a CRM for the trade-off in detail.

How much does Calendly cost for a team of five?

As of October 2026, Calendly Teams is $16 a seat a month, or $80 a month for five, with 20% off billed yearly. Standard is $10 a seat but does not include round-robin.

Can I move my event types from Calendly to another tool?

Not automatically. None of the tools here import Calendly event types; you recreate them, which takes an hour for a typical setup. Existing bookings stay in your calendar because every tool writes to Google or Outlook.
