Calendly is the booking link many clients already recognize, and its plan ladder fits both solo consultants and sales departments. The free plan gives you one event type and one calendar, which is enough to test the flow. Standard at $10 per seat per month billed yearly unlocks unlimited event types, six calendar connections, reminders, cancellation policies, branding removal and payments through Stripe or PayPal, plus payment links, packages and invoices for client work. Teams at $16 per seat adds round-robin distribution, centrally managed event types, form screening with routing to the right rep, and Salesforce and Marketo connections. Enterprise starts at $15k a year for 50 seats and adds SSO, domain control and audit logs. Calendly also sells a Notetaker and an email scheduling assistant called Callie as add-ons. The main drawback is cost for larger teams, because the sales features sit on the higher tier.
