Calendly vs Square Appointments in a nutshell

Calendly is a scheduling software that lets you eliminate back-and-forth emails. Input rules that indicate your available times. Share the link with your guests, and they can pick a time that's convenient for them. Calendar invites and reminders are automatically set once it's confirmed. The free version lets you schedule unlimited events and integrates with Zoom, GoToMeeting, and Microsoft Teams. You will, however, need a paid version to get access to their customer service. You’re also only allowed to have one calendar per account on the free plan.

Square Appointments is an appointment scheduling tool that lets you run your business from your smartphone. The platform gives you an option to create a booking site, an online store, or embed the calendar link to your existing website so you can share your calendar with your clients. An important consideration, however, is that Square Appointments is designed to be used with Square. Currently, it also doesn’t integrate with Zoom or Google Meet for seamless online meeting setups.

“I use Koalendar to schedule tutoring session with students. I was able to get it set up and sent to students in about 5 minutes. Support was extremely friendly and is a real person rather than a robot or outsourced.”

Lucas M.
Tutor

“I was looking for a free, easy manageable and customisable calendar app for ages. Koalendar offers all that. So I have recommended the app already to 2 of my colleagues.”

Nika B.
Event & Sustainability Manager

“Koalendar has made scheduling meetings and calls so much easier. I no longer have to send over an email with all of the dates/times I am free. I just simply send a link and they can see the times I have open. I love it!”

Jeffrey L.
Application Support Specialist

“This has been a great tool to schedule virtual appointments with my students. I am able to easily provide a link under my signature in my email and on Google Classroom. Students can easily set up an appointment that works for them. This has been a tool for keeping appointments organized.”

Annette R.
Middle School Teacher

“When Doodle dropped their calendar sharing support, I tried different tools but they all didn't provide the features I was looking for. Eventually I found Koalendar and it's exactly what I need. It has a free version, it's easy but flexible to configure and people wanting to book a meeting with me can do it fast and easy.”

Roger L.
CEO

“This software has changed the way I hire and interview new hires. With Koalendat it allows the candidates to self-schedule themselves for the interview day.”
