The free plans are the real difference
On 9 October 2026 both tools had a free plan, but they are not equal. Calendly Free allows one event type and one calendar connection. Cal.com Free is for one user but lists unlimited event types and calendars.
On paid plans both charge per user. Calendly Standard was $12 a month billed monthly ($10 yearly) and Teams $20 ($16). Cal.com Teams was $16 a month billed monthly ($12 yearly) and Organizations $37 ($28). Both offer a 14-day trial. Single sign-on needs Calendly Teams with an add-on or Enterprise, and Cal.com's Organizations plan.
