SimplyBook.me vs Koalendar in a nutshell
Simplybook.me is an online booking system that's best for service-based industries. It lets you manage schedules for all your providers and create customizable booking pages for your clients to pick their preferred times. A downside to the SimplyBook.me is that it isn’t very easy to pick up for staff and clients. Be sure to allow time for staff on-boarding and feature exploration so you can make the most of the platform. Appointment durations are also only set to one kind. For example, if one appointment is one hour, then all your appointments need to follow the same time frame.
Koalendar is a great SimplyBook.me alternative because it offers a clean, modern, and intuitive interface, for free.
Your invitees will get a delightful booking experience along with a customizable questionnaire to qualify them. You'll also enjoy a live and quick customer service, directly from the developer.
But don't take our word for it: feel free to try Koalendar's free forever account .

Testimonials
Professionals ❤️ Koalendar
Thousands of teachers and business owners are enjoying the benefits of using a simple online appointments scheduling software.
“We’ve doubled our attendance rates and number of bookings, reduced the time we spent on scheduling by like 12 hours per person, per week, and everything is completely customized with our school’s colors and logo.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”

SimplyBook’s free account includes fifty bookings per month, one provider, and one custom feature. You must manually renew the free plan each month, and accounts that remain expired more than three months can be deleted, so active users should log in regularly.
The fifty booking cap, the single provider limit, and the monthly renewal step create friction for growing teams. Many switch when they need more providers or features without managing custom feature counts.
The free tier includes 50 bookings/month, 1 provider, and 1 custom feature, and it must be renewed manually every month. If a free account isn’t renewed and sits expired for too long, it may be deleted — friction that can catch busy teams by surprise.
