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.
A booking page that reads your calendar
YouCanBookMe puts a bookable page in front of a calendar you already keep, and the customisation goes further than the category norm: the booking form, the confirmation email and the page itself are all editable. Free accounts connect one calendar, which is the constraint that decides most upgrades. Teams are priced per member rather than per booking.
Our note
Charged per member where Acuity charges per tier, which is what decides it for a team. One calendar is free, so a solo freelancer never has to pay. A group of five should do the arithmetic both ways before committing.
