Zencal vs. Calendly

Full disclaimer - we probably feel closer to our competition than anyone else. But there's something to our mission that's fundamentally different: we feel individuals hosting free meetings should benefit from free scheduling software. We focus our business on teams and paid meetings (that is also where we want to be best-in-class).


Paid Calendly plan is free here

No need to compare paid plans. What Calendly offers for $10 you will get on Zencal for free, and even more! This includes the team features, selling meetings and removing branding. Yes, they won't let you do it even for 10 bucks.


Focus pocus on paid meetings

Our mission is to create best experience for people who sell their meetings. That's why we focus to optimise conversions, support subscriptions and bundles and even let you hire a professional human assistant.


We help individual and teams

We get it. It's better to onboard a team of 1000 than 1000 individual customers. We feel Calendly focuses on bigger teams rather than individuals and smaller teams. We aim to help exactly those folks (and we can relate).
