Benefits of scheduling software
Booking and managing appointments can be time-consuming. There are schedules to cross-compare, locations to confirm, emails to send, and even documents that need to be signed before meetings can take place. This is a lot for one person to manage, but with the right tools, it doesn't have to be.
Calendar scheduling platforms like Cal.com and Cronofy transform the way individuals and organizations manage meetings. Using a designated scheduling tool lets team members benefit from multi-calendar integration, workflow automation, and routing forms that speed things up. Cal.com and Cronofy's integration options let users efficiently connect various teleconferencing solutions, payment gateways, and CRM products to create a custom scheduling environment.
Incorporating a calendar scheduling tool as part of your organization's workflow is a simple way to reduce overhead and increase efficiency by saving time-based resources.
Shared features
Cal.com and Cronofy are two industry powerhouses that share several features. Both offer a scalable and secure scheduling solution for individuals and businesses. These products are not only ISO 27001 certified and SOC2 attested but also GDPR, CCPA, and HIPAA compliant. Using either of these products means that professionals of all stripes don't have to compromise their standards to increase efficiency. Both products support multiple languages and time zones, which helps to eliminate confusion while also reducing barriers to booking.

Main differences
One of the main differences between Cal.com and Cronofy is their approach.
Cronofy is focused first and foremost on the needs of recruiters. In addition, the only free account it offers is sandboxed. Cronofy's pricing is also structured quite differently. While both Cal.com and Cronofy offer a team plan starting at $15 per month per user, Cronofy's next level up costs $799 a month, as opposed to Cal.com's price of $37. Cronofy also lacks comprehensive round-robin scheduling and isn't the easiest for no-code users to customize.
In addition, Cronofy has limited automation options, few integrations, and no way to monetize meetings or implement no-show fees.
This stands in direct contrast to Cal.com, a product that's built for developers, businesses, and the everyday person alike. Cal.com's default hosted product allows the regular user to customize their calendar scheduling environment in a modular manner. A wide variety of settings and features can be enabled simply by selecting them via dropdown menus or by activating them with a toggle. This helps to reduce learning barriers and means that even non-coders can become power users.
Cal.com also has a built-in app store that supports single-click installs and integrations. This makes it easy for all users to enhance their calendar scheduling workflow by adding a wide variety of conferencing, analytics, monetization, and CRM products.
In addition, Cal.com also supports unique enterprise-level plans that facilitate the creation of time-based marketplaces.
This means that established brands as well as recently funded startups can use Cal.com to offer a completely white-labeled platform that facilitates booking-based businesses similar to Uber, BetterHelp, and Telus Health's MyCare.
