How Calendly and Outseta compare

Calendly is the standard for booking meetings. Calendar sync, a clean booking page, reminders, round-robin for teams, routing forms, and payment at booking, all refined over years. If the whole job is letting people pick a time with you, Calendly does that job about as well as it can be done.

Outseta is the quiet workhorse behind many paid memberships and small SaaS products. Subscription billing, authentication and gated content, a CRM, email marketing, and a support desk come together so a founder can add a paying membership to any site they already have. It is well designed, honest, and built by people who use it.

Where they are different

Choose Calendly when you only need scheduling, or your team needs routing and round-robin.

Choose Outseta when you sell a subscription and need billing, logins, CRM, and support in one place behind your own site.
