Cheapest Calendly alternatives for a 5-person team

Calendly's per-seat math at 5 seats

Our scenario: 5 seats, monthly billing (Calendly only publishes its monthly-equivalent rate on annual billing, so we state that clearly wherever it applies). Calendly's Free plan gives one user a single event type, one calendar connection and a customizable booking page — fine for a solo tester, not a team. Standard is $10/seat/month billed yearly, working out to $50/month for 5 seats ($600/year); Teams is $16/seat/month billed yearly, $80/month for 5 seats. Enterprise starts at $15,000/year and requires 50 seats minimum, far past our scenario.

Cal.com: the open-source Calendly

Cal.com is the most direct Calendly rival in our data, and it's open source: the Individuals plan is free forever for 1 user with unlimited event types and calendars, 100+ app integrations, a mobile app and Stripe payment collection built in. Its Teams plan is $16/user/month monthly, or $12/user/month billed annually — $80/month for 5 seats monthly-billed (matching Calendly Teams exactly), or $60/month if you commit to annual billing, which undercuts it. Organizations is $37/user/month ($28/user/month annually) and adds unlimited sub-teams and SAML SSO. Because Cal.com is also self-hostable, the subscription is optional entirely if someone on the team can run it.

Cheaper per-seat booking tools

SavvyCal has no free plan at all, unlike Calendly — its Basic plan, at $10/user/month ($8.33/month billed annually), is the entry price, matching Calendly Standard's per-seat rate exactly at $50/month for 5 seats. Its Premium tier is $17/user/month ($14.17/month annually) for custom domains and paid bookings, $85/month for 5 seats. Koalendar's Pro plan is $9.99/seat/month ($6.99/seat/month billed annually) — 5 seats costs $49.95/month, or about $35/month billed annually, undercutting Calendly Standard either way.

Doodle's Pro tier is $11/seat/month billed annually ($132/year/seat) — $55/month for 5 seats; its Team tier (minimum 2 seats) is $16/seat/month annually, $80/month for 5. Not every alternative is cheaper: YouCanBookMe's Team plan is $18/member/month, $90/month for 5 seats — more than Calendly Teams' $80, a reminder to check the per-seat number rather than assume the underdog always wins. Zeeg's Professional tier is about $13.99/user/month (converted from a €12 EUR price) — about $70/month for 5 seats, or about $58/month if billed annually at its converted €10/user/month rate.

Flat prices that don't multiply by headcount

SimplyBook.me's Basic plan covers up to 5 seats for about $16.21/month total (converted from a €13.90 price) — not per seat, a flat rate for the whole team, with a 100-booking-a-month cap; its Standard tier raises that to 15 seats and 500 bookings for about $34.87/month. Acuity Scheduling doesn't price by seat at all; its Standard tier is $34/month ($27/month billed annually) for up to 6 calendars, comfortably covering a 5-person team as one flat bill instead of five separate seat charges. TidyCal's Pro plan is $12/month ($8.25/month billed annually) with no team-seat limit specified in our data — priced and positioned as a single practitioner's tool rather than a 5-seat team plan.

B2B scheduling is priced for a different budget

Chili Piper and RevenueHero route enterprise sales meetings rather than book simple 1:1s, and their pricing reflects a different buyer. Chili Piper's Routing & Scheduling plan starts at $15,000/year for up to 15 seats, billed annually only, with extra seats at $45/month each; its Experiences plan starts at $42,000/year for up to 30 seats. RevenueHero charges $35–$45/month per seat on top of a separate $99/month platform fee ($79/month billed yearly) — a structure that makes its real team cost higher than the per-seat number alone suggests, though its Lite tier drops the platform fee entirely at $15/user/month, with no admin license fee and unlimited meetings included. Neither is a cheaper Calendly; they're a different product for a different sales-ops budget, and worth knowing about only if your team is already routing inbound leads to reps rather than just booking calls.
