Picktime vs Calendly

Picktime is a straightforward, affordable scheduling tool best suited for small and medium-sized businesses. Its free plan includes unlimited appointments, online booking links, email reminders, drag-and-drop rescheduling, and basic reporting.

Paid tiers support multi-user teams, classes with waitlists, invoicing, revenue tracking, resource and room management, calendar sync, video integrations, and payment processing (PayPal, Stripe, Square).

It's a particularly cost-effective option for businesses needing flexibility without high costs.

Calendly is a cloud-based scheduling automation platform that eliminates the need for back-and-forth emails by enabling users to share their availability via personalized scheduling links.

Invitees simply select a convenient time, which is then automatically added to integrated calendars (such as Google, Outlook, Office 365, or iCloud) while respecting the privacy of existing appointments.

Offering freemium access for individuals and tiered premium plans for professionals, teams, and enterprises, Calendly includes support for varied meeting types (“Event Types”), buffer and notice times, and customizable booking rules.
