Simplify Scheduling and Communication with Cal.com’s Skype Integration

Prioritizing meaningful meetings

When it comes to calendar scheduling, Cal.com does things differently. We're focused on helping people connect and truly own their time; effortless bookings are just a bonus. We know that one calendar scheduling solution isn't going to fit all unless it can be tailored, and we know that what you need might change on a day-to-day basis.

Customization for your unique needs

This is why Cal.com's free plan is packed with best-in-class features that you're won't find at the same price point anywhere else. All Cal.com users have options for analytics integration, monetization, and we don't place arbitrary limits on the number of calendar connections or active meeting types that you can have. We want our users to be comfortable in their calendar scheduling environment.

Empowering user choices

We want you to be able to make the choices that matter to you, and we want to ensure that once you've made those choices, it's easy for you to take action and execute plans based upon them. This is one of the reasons why we've taken the time to truly invest in Cal.com's hosted product. Yes, we're an open-source project and an open startup, but we also know that the majority of our users aren't coders.

This is why we offer advanced granule-level controls via your account settings page as well as multiple dashboards like your events, bookings, and availability dashboard. This helps to ensure that everyone has access to advanced customization options.

The good news

Skype has been around for a long time. For many people, it was the first global teleconferencing product that they encountered. It's allowed people to build businesses, reconnect with family, and maintain effective communication lines, no matter where they are.

This is why we are happy to announce that Cal now has a built-in integration for Skype. This is fantastic for anyone who's not only fond of this product but finds it to be an essential component of the way they work.

Installing the Skype integration

To install our app for Skype, follow these steps:

  1. Visit the App Store

  2. Select the conferencing category

  3. Scroll down until you find Skype

  4. Click on the Details button

  5. Click on the Install App button

  6. Choose an event to connect to Skype (or select "Set Up Later")

As you can see, adding Skype to your Cal.com teleconferencing options is a simple and straightforward process. Once you've completed the steps above, you can start sharing your booking link and communicating with those who matter most to you on the platform you both enjoy.
