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 Timekit 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 Timekit'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 Timekit are two industry powerhouses that share several features. Both platforms allow the creation of individual meetings as well as collective events. All paid users have access to advanced features like round-robin booking that makes it easy to distribute events among team members based on demand.
Both Cal.com and Timekit understand that boundaries are important. This is why they both offer extensive booking limits to help ensure that there's always enough time between appointments. These booking limits include things like buffer times as well as minimum scheduling notice. In addition, each platform also lets users specify how far into the future an event can be booked.
Using these services also enhances the way teams work by simplifying administration through the implementation of advanced routing forms, automated reminders, and custom meeting templates. These improvements increase performance by reducing attrition and taking the stress out of both local and global meeting coordination.

Main differences
One of the main differences between Cal.com and Timekit is their approach and communication strategies. Cal.com is open-source by nature. Because of this, it's invested in ensuring that users can easily understand the product and its offerings. This means that Cal.com users don't have to be a detective or play a guessing game when trying to find out essential information. A great example of this is security. All of Cal.com's essential certification information can be found as part of the footer on its homepage. Timekit, on the other hand, is a bit less forthright when it comes to communicating whether or not the product is SOC2 verified or suitable for being used by professionals in industries that require HIPAA certification. Both Cal.com and Timekit are great for anyone who wants to customize a product via API; however, Timekit lacks robust customization options for no-code and low-code users.
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.
