Cal.com Reviews & Product Details

Cal.com stands out as an open, modular scheduling platform with a developer‑grade architecture and a very complete feature set for modern teams. The open‑source core and self‑hosting option make it unique in a market dominated by closed SaaS schedulers, while the hosted version ships with mature integrations, a growing app ecosystem, and enterprise‑ready controls.

The cadence of product updates is active and transparent, with meaningful upgrades to the native video stack, API surface, and organizational management in recent releases.

• Open‑source foundation and self‑hosting option.

The codebase is public, extensible, and can be deployed on owned infrastructure for tighter control over data locality, security, and compliance. This model also benefits from community contributions and faster iteration on niche capabilities compared to closed platforms.

• Pricing that scales from individual to enterprise.

There is a Free plan for individuals with unlimited bookings; the Teams plan is listed at $15 per user per month; and a higher tier with advanced org and enterprise features. The official pricing page clearly delineates feature progression from Free to Teams to higher plans, and third‑party comparisons align on the $15 user price point for teams.

• First‑class scheduling mechanics for teams.

Round‑robin logic with timestamp basis selection, routing forms, and team workflows are called out in public materials, and recent release notes highlight improved scheduling logic granularity and organization‑level permission clarity, which is critical for multi‑team deployments.

• Native Cal Video with new privacy and accessibility controls.

The built‑in video product gained advanced options: enable or disable recording per attendee role, automatic transcription, and post‑meeting redirects to a custom URL. These are configurable within event location settings and are supported via API v2 for programmatic management.

• Robust API v2 and developer ergonomics.

Recent updates expose endpoints to fetch full event details from Google Calendar, manage Cal Video settings, and improve caching and API‑key listing performance. There is also a refreshed app install flow to add apps directly to specific event types, which reduces setup friction for complex workflows.

• Broad integration surface through ecosystem partners.

Zapier offers templates to push bookings to Google Calendar, create CRM contacts in HubSpot, send Slack notifications, write rows to Sheets, and more, which covers most no‑code automation needs. This complements Cal.com’s own App Store and API for deeper integrations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing that I dislike or that isn't working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The platform feels so premium, and has all functionalities which can be required just in a calendar. We are able to create multiple meeting links, have embedded on our webpage & socials too. It also integrates directly with slack, notifying us with bookings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike nothing in Cal.com so I have nothing to write here Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

LOOKS GREAT, and easy to install & Customize. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I run a small agency and have been recommending your services to my clients. However, I have been waiting for support for five days without a response.

This delay is quite disappointing, as the ability to provide timely support to potential clients is often a key indicator of success in converting new customers.

I hope this issue can be addressed promptly, as I value the potential of your platform and would like to continue recommending it with confidence. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like that its completely free, and the design is really nice to look at. The flexibility and intuitiveness of the product also allows me to have a likeable degree of control over my events and schedule, and the fact that I can trigger webhooks with the system allows me to incorporate it with other applications. Whenever I'm facing issues, the customer support will always get back to me within the day itself, and the issues I face is usually resolved as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I guess the only thing I dislike is the fact that some details in the form for my customers to book is locked to being required to be filled up, which in some cases I don't really need. E.g. Name, Email, and I think contact details are required as well, I know most cases we do need these details, but it would be nice if I can have the option to remove them Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Their booking UX is really well designed, and it is cheaper per-user than Calendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Their core problem is that they are so focused on their own UX that they are not paying attention to the UX that 99% of people that interact with them will use: the calendar invite. It's not customizable at all, is super-basic, and looks terrible on Microsoft 365. They want to be used by businesses, but the experience they give my customers is really bad, and has caused more problems than it solves.

Their focus on open source means they leave it to other people to solve their problems for them, and it shows. Customer support has not been responsive, and fixes my well-documented issues have been pushed out for 4 releases, without so much as a plan to fix them.

They also will not fix their booking UI snippet integration so it fills 100% of its container at all times, meaning my website is at the mercy of their Tailwind implementation.

This product has a long way to go before it can compete with Calendly or Chili Piper. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This service takes the low bar set by the "free" or entry tiers of competing services and goes so far above, it's out of sight. Cal.com can be self-hosted (amazing), but even without doing so, their free, hosted plan does everything you would need for basic calendaring/availability-based scheduling. It doesn't feel like anything is limited. Customer support is friendly and helpful (even to free users). Easy to implement with several calendards to create combined availability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Only room for improvement, in my opinion, is more clarity on custom fields that are end-user facing. The options are all there, and the default layout is sufficient for most, but I would be a little confused with making customizations to them, as the UI shows all options for various different user-facing screens. It's not obvious how to show certain fields on certain end-user pages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Cal.com team is responsive to the many issues on the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It doesn't connect to Salesforce and struggles to successfully scheule meetings with the correct person. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Leaving a 5-star review here is a no-brainer: it integrates seamlessly with my existing calendars to prevent double bookings, gives me friendly, memorable links to share with people, all while streamlining my other workflows and with an incredible pricing model at a fraction of the costs of the competitors.

Combine this with their talented team led by their meme-posting CEO Peer and you’ve got a winner. I am eternally grateful for this tool and my decision to switch to it from Calendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing at all. I've thought long and hard about this and I dislike nothing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
