## Good for

- Solo users who want unlimited event types without paying
- Developers adding scheduling to their own product
- Organizations that need SAML SSO, SCIM and compliance attestations

## Worth knowing

- 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.
