Worth knowing
Cal.com
- The free plan is limited to 1 user; shared team availability and round-robin scheduling need the Teams plan.
- Cal.com announced in April 2026 that its production code was going closed source. The open-source edition is now Cal.diy, without Teams, Organizations, Workflows or SSO.
- Cal.com recommends Cal.diy for personal, non-production use only; self-hosting the commercial product requires an enterprise license from sales.
- SAML SSO, SCIM and sub-teams start on the Organizations plan at $28 per user / month, billed yearly.
Lunacal
- There is no free plan: all three plans are paid once the 7-day trial ends.
- Multi-session packages, team scheduling, round robin and webhooks need the Teams plan or higher.
- SSO and email from your own domain are Enterprise only, and a custom domain for booking pages is an Enterprise add-on.
- Text message reminders are billed per message segment at rates that vary by destination country.
