Calendly vs Vagaro

Calendly is a scheduling tool that lets people offer booking pages and coordinate meetings across calendars. It supports one-on-one, group, collective, multi-host, round-robin, and team scheduling, with two-way calendar sync and automated reminders. Users can collect payments through Stripe and PayPal; payment tools also include links, packages, and invoices. The always-free plan allows one event type, one calendar connection, and one-on-one scheduling, and signup does not require a credit card. Standard costs $10 per seat per month billed yearly, while Teams costs $16 per seat per month billed yearly; both list up to six calendars per user. The service is available through mobile apps and a browser extension, and lists more than 150 integrations, including Google Calendar, Microsoft Teams, Outlook, Zoom, HubSpot, Mailchimp, and Zapier. Teams adds administration features such as team groups, admins, and centrally managed events. Enterprise lists SSO, SAML, domain control, audit log compliance, a data deletion API, dedicated account support, onboarding, and implementation. Calendly was founded in 2013 and is headquartered in Buford, Georgia.

Vagaro is business management and scheduling software for beauty, wellness, and fitness businesses. It combines booking pages and payments with calendar and resource management, reporting, inventory, invoices, memberships, packages, gift certificates, and customer tracking. Businesses can offer group bookings, automated reminders, and two-way calendar sync. Vagaro says it serves independent providers through businesses with multiple locations, and listings on the Vagaro Marketplace come at no additional cost. The web-based service is available through vagaro.com, with Vagaro Pro apps for Apple and Android devices. QuickBooks and Xero integrations can import sales transactions, taxes, tips, and refunds; when synchronization starts, QuickBooks initially imports only the previous two months of Vagaro data. APIs and webhooks can connect accounts to external systems and send real-time business-event notifications. The One Location plan costs $30 a month, billed monthly, for one location. A United States base subscription is listed at $23.99 a month for the first six months, with one bookable calendar included. Vagaro offers a 30-day trial, which excludes email marketing, text marketing, and the branded app.
