Streamline Your Workflow with Calendar Scheduling

Calendar scheduling can be challenging, but it doesn't have to be. You don't have to juggle manually reference multiple agendas in order to manage client bookings, employee availability, hiring, onboarding, and payment collection. Instead, you can just use Cal.com, an all-in-one open-source time management solution.

All Cal.com accounts come with unlimited active events, unlimited bookings, and unlimited availability schedules. Signing up for a team plan means that you can take advantage of features like collective events, and round-robin scheduling, as well as admin-friendly managed booking templates.

You can even use Cal.com to launch your own time-based marketplace. This could be a platform for influencers, creatives, or professionals where they could sell skill-based services, book appearances, or offer mentorship.

The reason why Cal.com can help you do all of these things is because it's been built to be both functional and flexible. The open-source aspect of the product means that anyone who's comfortable with code can access our GitHub in order to create a self-hosted instance of Cal.com tailored to their exact needs.

We know that this use case doesn't apply to everyone. That's why the default hosted Cal.com experience is no-code friendly. Our interface has been designed to let users have granular control simply by accessing event-level settings and activating or deactivating features with the flick of a toggle.

In addition, our app store is packed with free integrations so that users can add to customize their calendar scheduling environment. This is a great way for individuals and teams to enhance their workflow by adding tools that support automation, communication, and analytics.
