Head of Communications Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Misleading misrepresentation" April 27, 2026 1.0 \- misleading misrepresentation and a waste of time for our team. Would not recommend for anyone planning to use for more than one person Pros \- You can customize the UI in terms of fonts, colors, and look and feel. It has one of the best (and worst) UI customizations I've found - for an individual working alone, the price point is good Cons \- misleading marketing. The agency plan that is "recommended for teams" is actually not suitable for teams at all. We wasted hours trying to force it to do basic things - misleading marketing x2: the agency plan does NOT actually license the agency features across your team members - awful marketing via their forced branding. Even on the highest paid plan, regardless of your brand style, they FORCE their big blue logo on your page. - On my team members page, it is so bad, the logo actually covers up some features - If you build a booking type from the "agency" account, it uses the same meeting location for all members. So how can two members schedule an external meeting at the same time? How is that an agency approach. Review Source R Reviewer Spanish tutor Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Really good app for Spanish lessons and classes in general." April 17, 2026 5.0 Pros I work teaching Spanish lessons, and Tidycal has been really useful. It is a really intuitive platform, I love that it is so easy to create my meetings and to classify them. It is totally worth the value and the return on the investment. Incredibly, even the free version is so complete, different from other calendar apps that you have to pay for some basic features. Cons I have not had the opportunity to use the customer support because everything has been working smoothly. Review Source R Reviewer Certified Sleep Practitioner Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Great Scheduler" March 27, 2026 5.0 Really easy to set up and use, and easy for my clients to book sessions with me too. Really good value for money. Pros TidyCal is super easy to set up and use. I love the fact that I can easily have multiple booking types. Cons Nothing really. I've used lots of different schedulers over the years, and TidyCal is by far the best in my opinion. Review Source Sabre’ O. Systems Strategist Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Best scheduling app " March 25, 2026 5.0 Absolutely love, makes my life so much easier and I love how I can have it branded to my business. And it’s the easier thing to use Pros How easy it is to set up and the different ways you can set up your booking links. With limits daily, monthly, etc Cons That their isn’t an app, and wirh creating the confirmation email and booking event, it changes together, instead of you being able to edit them on by one Review Source Bakari C. Web Designer Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Awesome Automated Booking Scheduling App " January 21, 2026 5.0 My experience with TidyCal has been very positive over the years. I have never encountered any problems, nor have I needed to contact support. It simply works for me. Although I've seen other booking scheduling apps with attractive designs, I still find TidyCal's simplicity sufficient for my needs. Pros I've been using TidyCal for about 4 to 5 years, and I appreciate its ease of use and my lifetime subscription, which eliminates the need for annual payments. It's very convenient for sharing my TidyCal calendars, allowing others to set up appointments and connect easily. Additionally, it automatically integrates with Zoom, streamlining the process for everyone involved. I have five different booking types for both client and personal use. Having separate URLs for each booking type is beneficial, as I can easily share them via email, text messages, or social media. It's also convenient that TidyCal sends specified email reminders before scheduled meetings. This a great time saver. Cons I guess TidyCal could use some additional design features, including the ability to add images in booking pages. Review Source R Reviewer Executive Coach Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "TidyCal - great value for a scheduling app" January 5, 2026 4.0 Similar to other scheduling apps, you can create various appointment types, connect them to your calendars and direct people to book a time that suits them. Since its connected to your calendar of choice (if you keep your digital calendar up-to-date) no double bookings and back-and-forth by email about when is a good time to meet. Once you have set it up clients can book a time slot. It works as expected. You can get very granular as to what times of day and what weekdays you are available, set up prices and have clients pay right when they book (via Stripe or PayPal) and of course the integration with your calendar will avoid any double bookings similar to other services like this, probably the most known is Calendly. It has most of the usual perks that come with schedulers: It connects to your digital calendar (Google Calendar, MS365 and Apple's iCal are all supported), connects to your video conference tools (TidyCal supports Google Meet, Zoom and MS Teams) as well as payment systems (Stripe, PayPal). You can embed a specific appointment type on your website (or the page with all the ones you make visible) as well as 'invisible' appointment types which means these will only work when you send the link to a specific person. The webapp gives you an overview over any bookings made, automatically sends emails with video call links to you and your client, adds the call to your calendar of choice and so on. In the appointment types you can specify that one or multiple email reminders are sent out to your customers ahead of the call. Customers can click a link to reschedule. We tried to use the team function for our team, but it turned out that for that to work all team members need to have purchased a license, something not clear from the advertising. Not a deal breaker, but something worth noting and being aware of if you want to use this with your team. I would like to see an app for my phone for this, but the reality is I would most likely not use it that much, so the lack of a mobile app was not a real problem when I looked at this. The main difference to Calendly is that you trade in a tiny bit of polish on the web app for cost saving. TidyCal is not a subscription, but a one time fee. Meaning, you only pay once up front for the service and then can use it indefinitely, rather than dishing out for a recurring monthly or annual subscription. Pros \- connects to Google Meet, Zoom and MS Teams. That means a meeting link is sent out to you and the client automatically - embedding your page (with all visible appointments) or a single appointment type in your website is easy peasy - you can set up appointment types as 'paid' and connect it to PayPal or Stripe so booking a session includes the payment process - no recurring subscription, but a one time payment Cons \- teams functions are only available if all users on the team have a paid 'tier 1' license - no mobile app - web app layout forces you to do more clicks than needed during setup and could use some polish Review Source R Reviewer Project Architect Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "A timesaver and efficient way to get your calendar filled with bookings." December 13, 2024 5.0 I've been using it for about 3 months now and it really has saved me so much time. Pros It is very easy for clients and prospects to book time on my calendar without me having to do anything. Cons Does not integrate fully into as many 3rd party solutions as other platforms. Review Source R Reviewer Owner Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Excellent booking tool" September 19, 2025 5.0 Great value, lifetime deal, super easy to use, very intuitive booking system, flexible bookings, and excellent support! Pros TidyCal has been a fantastic tool for me. The thing I appreciate the most is the one-time lifetime price — no recurring subscription fees, which makes it an incredible value compared to other scheduling platforms. It’s also very easy to use. The interface is clean and intuitive, so setting up was quick and hassle-free. I love that I can create multiple booking events for different purposes, which gives me a lot of flexibility in how I manage my calendar. On top of that, their customer service has been excellent — quick, friendly, and genuinely helpful whenever I had a question. Overall, TidyCal has everything I need without the complexity or ongoing costs, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a simple and effective scheduling solution. Cons The only downside I’ve found is that TidyCal currently allows you to set just one currency at a time. Since I work with clients from different countries, they all have to pay in USD, which isn’t always convenient for them. Having multi-currency support would make the platform even better. Review Source Wendell J. owner Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "A great scheduling software for the lean business owner" June 9, 2023 5.0 With a lot of the same features that you likely are accustomed to in other bigger named schedulers, you wont miss out at this price point. The software was a bit buggy and didn't have many features a few years ago. Now, I am glad we got it at the LTD. Pros This software was a great deal a couple of years ago and is still living up to the price. Cons Sometimes the Google Calendar sync drops. Review Source The Crafting L. Owner Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Simple, Powerful Booking Tool That Just Works" July 10, 2025 5.0 TidyCal has streamlined how I manage client appointments and events. Before this, I was juggling manual emails and inconsistent time zones, but now I can send a single link and let people choose a time that works. I especially appreciate the ability to create both free and paid booking types, which lets me separate discovery calls from paid consultations. For the price and functionality, it’s an outstanding solution especially for solopreneurs, coaches, and service based businesses. Pros TidyCal’s interface is incredibly clean and user friendly. Setting up booking pages takes just a few minutes, and I love how easy it is to integrate with Google Calendar, Zoom, and payment platforms like Stripe or PayPal. It’s also amazing that there’s a one time payment model instead of a recurring subscription... rare in scheduling tools! Being able to set different appointment types, availability windows, and automated confirmation emails is a game changer for my small business. Cons It’s a bit basic in terms of advanced features if you’re looking for deep CRM integration or detailed analytics, this may not be robust enough. Also, the mobile UI could use a little polishing. Nothing deal breaking, but it’s more functional than sleek on a phone. Review Source Anabella D. Propietaria Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Simple pero efectiva" August 7, 2024 5.0 Hay herramientas más conocidas donde todo es pago y no tan útiles como TidyCal. Es simple pero efectiva, además cada vez estan agregando más posibilidades, incluso en la versión gratuita. Hay una opción de adquirir una membresia lifetime, fue mi caso luego de comenzar a utilizarle. Pros Es simple de implementar, bastante completo por su costo beneficio y simple para utilización del cliente. Tiene varias integraciones en su versión gratuita y en la versión paga posibilidad de seguimiento. Cons Tal vez lo haria más atractivo visualmente, posibilidades de personalización Review Source George R. Director of Development Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Streamlined Scheduling with TidyCal — Even the Free Version Delivers" July 7, 2025 5.0 TidyCal has been a great tool so far. Even using the free version, I’ve been impressed with how much flexibility it offers. It integrates seamlessly with my Google Calendar, which keeps everything in sync without any extra effort. I especially appreciate the ability to add custom questions to the booking process - I've used this to gain affirmative consent for potentially recording a meeting, which has been seamless and professional. The control over time slots, buffer times, and availability settings makes scheduling easy and efficient. Very satisfied with the experience so far! Pros Seamless Google Calendar Integration – Keeps your schedule automatically synced and up to date. Highly Customizable Booking Options – Control availability, buffer times, and add required questions like consent forms. Great Value – Offers generous features in the free version, with an affordable one-time payment for premium access. Cons Limited Integrations – Fewer native integrations compared to tools like Calendly or Acuity. No Mobile App – Access is limited to web browsers, which can be less convenient on the go. Basic Branding on Free Plan – Custom branding and more advanced customization require upgrading. Review Source Neil G. Owner Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Can't go wrong" October 17, 2023 5.0 Overall, my Tidycal experience has been excellent. Not regretted or had second thoughts. It embeds into my website, people make bookings and I get alerted. They can be paid-for or not. Way better value than the rest. Pros Tidycal has all the needed features that all the 'big' platforms have. I also like how there are additional design features to make the text stand out a bit (highlighting). A particular favourite for me is that unlike other platforms, each Tidycal booking type has its own calendar - this is super-useful when promoting different types of bookings. It's really easy to use, totally reliable and price-wise, is amazing value. Cons I think I would like to see more native integrations. I use Zapier to connect things and it works, but native would be more efficient. Review Source David D. Artistic Director Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Scheduling made simple but robust, can even take payments" July 25, 2022 5.0 We use different calendar solutions and they all require a great deal of setting up, using Tidycal in al least one of our projects has been really nice, from deployment to user experience. Pros The ease of deployment would be number one! You don't have to have any previous experience or programming skills to make your scheduling page look nice and to be functional. Cons To be honest, it does the job and very well at that, maybe not having the option to create a team, but apparently, this is in the works. Review Source R Reviewer Owner Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Goodbye Calendly, Hello TidyCal" June 8, 2023 5.0 TidyCal is a wonderful tool, greatly under priced - at this time, it is an absolute steal. I use TidyCal for all of my meeting scheduling and consulting. Soon, I will also be using it for my personal training and self-development coaching business. The team behind TidyCal releases new features and additions every month - and they actually tell you what those updates are in an email. The team is highly responsive to customer requests. I would recommend TidyCal to anyone looking to switch from another scheduling tool. Pros \- cost-to-benefit ratio- easy to use- easy to integrate Cons I have not found any cons in my nearly three years of use Review Source R Reviewer Advisor Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Saved me so much money! " July 24, 2024 5.0 Pros I purchased the LTD of TidyCal on a whim after seeing it on another site. I am so glad I did because even though I didn’t know I needed it at the moment I soon found out how helpful it would be to my business! It is easy to use and allows for me to embed each individual page into my website where I need it! I can easily schedule when I’m available and not available as well as charge for my services directly through the pages. Cons Haven’t found anything I dislike so far. Review Source Ben A. Web dev Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Just works and easy to use!" July 26, 2022 5.0 This calendar booking just works! I did not have so high expectations for TidyCal with such a cheep price. But I'm really amazed. I've tried other alternatives and they just didn't cut it.. Pros It integrates with Zoom, it has group meetings, it's translated into Swedish, I can easily embed it on my WordPress website. Cons It would be great with a feature to send out an automatic follow-up email where I can say thank you for the meeting and ask them to reach out again if needed. Review Source R Reviewer Founder Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Simple and efficient" October 4, 2023 5.0 Excellent. I've been able to book appointments so much more efficiently at low cost Pros Simple easy to use user interface. Everything clicks as I expect it to. Cons Very minor hiccup encountered if a user reschedules using the original calendar app. Review Source Verified Reviewer Musician Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Gran relación calidad/precio" April 17, 2023 4.0 Pros La facilidad para manejar citas y tener el control sobre un calendario profesional, todo por un precio muy inferior a otros competidores. Cons Supongo que al ser una opción más económica, está menos preparado que otros productos para la integración de diferentes plataformas. No es un problema mayor, pero al escalar el negocio puede que se quede corto. Review Source R Reviewer Director Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Best Appointment Booking Software" April 10, 2025 5.0 This is THE BEST booking app I have used. I moved form Calendly (which was way too expensive for very few features) and have not looked back. Tidycal has so many different features, customisation options and is super easy to use. I can't live without it now! Pros Multiple features, ease of use, integrations with other platforms. Cons Nothing. Everything about Tidycal is fantastic! Review Source R Reviewer CEO, Coach Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "TidyCal a nice alternative to the other calendar guys" March 3, 2025 5.0 A good product, at a fair price. Made for business owners and creators. Easy to use, easy to integrate. Pros Ease of use, cost, support, and integration with so many other products. Allows me to sell services from the program. Cons A lack of some functionality like in Calendly. Review Source Brittni A. CRM and Email Marketing Specialist Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Great tool especially with the one time payment" July 18, 2025 5.0 TidyCal was easy to set up. Also very easy to integrate a payment processor to be able to take paid meetings. Overall great tool. Pros Great product. Similar to Calendly but with a one time payment instead of monthly. Works great to book calls. Cons I don't think it integrates as easily with other platforms as some don't support the integration. I also dislike that it only lets you have one booking page. I also use Appointlet and over there I have a few different booking pages. I use one for existing clients and one for discovery calls. That way, prospects see my paid consulting, where as existing clients have meetings added to their monthly invoice. Review Source R Reviewer Owner Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Best online booking calendar that won't break your bank" March 6, 2025 5.0 It's pretty, it's easy and does the job. 🎯 And I pay only once! Pros It's simplicity, in design and function, I get drawn to something that's plain looking for me. Less for me is pretty. Cons Its long wait for Outlook calendars to sync. Review Source R Reviewer Photo and Videomaker Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Simple and that's what we want" May 26, 2025 5.0 Overall the software is simple and does what you pay for. It's more easy to get than the other main one, and has pretty much the same fucntionnalities. Pros Simple and straight to the point, it offers also the ability to pay only once which i like a lot. You can set appointments and have a synchronisation with you calendar which is great Cons The software could be translated in more languages which will be great for ease of use. Also API could be implemented in more automation app like zapier, IFTTT fors example Review Source LA Lukasz A. Founder Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "It is light, simple and cheap" December 20, 2024 5.0 It works perfectly, without any problems. It is also friendly to people who make appointments with me. Pros TidyCal is super easy to set up, even non-technical people will have no trouble setting it up. This saves a lot of time compared to competing solutions on the market. Cons This isn't a big problem for me, but there are limited options for customizing the look to your needs.
