Scheduling with a phone number attached
OnceHub does the booking page and the routing every scheduler does, then hands the booking a dedicated phone number, so a call that was always going to happen on the phone gets booked and dialled from one record. Free covers one link and one calendar. Past that it is priced per seat, and the routing tier costs about twice the basic one.
Our note
Against Calendly and Cal.com this is the pick only if the phone number or the routing matters, since both of those do plain scheduling for less. On the free tiers the three are close enough that the deciding factor is which one your calendar prefers.
Appointments and classes, free for three people
Picktime books appointments, classes and rooms, and its free plan is unusually complete: three team members, unlimited bookings and the mobile apps included. Paying adds resources, locations and email customisation rather than removing a cap on how much you can work. It suits somebody running sessions who does not want a subscription before the first booking.
Our note
For a small team this is the most generous free plan in the category by a distance. The interface shows its age next to Cal.com, which is the trade you are making for three free seats.
