FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Calendly vs Cal.com vs SavvyCal?
Calendly: industry standard, most reliable, $12-20/mo. Cal.com: open-source alternative, similar features, $0-15/mo, can self-host. SavvyCal: premium scheduling with overlay-style calendar (looks the best), $12-20/mo. All embed the same way on Website Killer.
Will Calendly slow down my page?
Calendly's inline widget adds ~80-120KB. For pages where speed matters, use the popup mode (loads JS on click) instead. For dedicated booking pages, inline is fine.
Can I take payment when someone books?
Yes — Calendly's Stripe integration lets you charge for paid consultations. Set the price per event type. Stripe processes the payment when the booking is confirmed.
Does Calendly handle group bookings?
Yes — set the event type to 'group' for one-to-many (workshops, group sessions), or 'collective' for multi-host (visitor books a slot when ALL members of your team are available), or 'round-robin' (rotates through your team to balance bookings).
