Comparisons
Five schedulers, compared on what decides it.
How each price grows, which plan screens a booker before the calendar, and what a team of ten pays a month, read off each company’s own pricing page on 25 October 2026. Every page also says plainly who should stay where they are.
At a glance
All five on one table.
Alphabetical, not ranked. Each figure links to the pricing page it was read from, and each name to its full comparison.
| Scheduler | How the price grows | Screens bookers before the calendar on | 10 hosts, a month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Setupp | Flat per workspace | Pro and up | $40.83 |
| Acuity Scheduling | Per account, by number of calendars | None listed on the pricing page | $55 |
| Cal.com | Per user | Teams and up | $120 |
| Calendly | Per seat | Teams and up | $160 |
| Chili Piper | Per plan, 15 seats included | Routing & Scheduling and up | $1,250 |
| SavvyCal | Per user | None listed on the pricing page | $100 |
List prices before tax, in US dollars, read on 25 October 2026. Setupp’s figure is billed yearly and every other one is billed yearly. Each name is a trademark of its owner, used only to name the product being compared.
Pick the one you typed
Five comparisons, alphabetically.
Not ranked. Ranking five products we do not describe would be an opinion with nothing underneath it.
The intake form is a gate, not a form.
My intake form collects answers nobody reads until it is too late. Can the answers actually decide something?
Not for you if: You are booking appointments rather than meetings: classes, recurring sessions, packages, deposits, or anything that takes payment at the point of booking. Setupp has no payments, no packages and no class scheduling, and is built around a meeting with named hosts.
10 hosts, a month
Hosted, flat-priced, and the calendar is conditional.
Can I stop paying per seat without running scheduling infrastructure myself?
Not for you if: Self-hosting is the requirement. There is no self-hosted edition of Setupp, the source is not published, and neither is planned. If the point is that it runs on your own hardware under your own control, nothing further down this page changes that and you should stop reading here.
10 hosts, a month
A scheduler that asks who is booking, before it books.
Am I paying per seat for people who barely book, and can I stop anybody who finds the link from taking an hour?
Not for you if: You need scheduling for a team that books across dozens of separate calendars with per-person branding and its own domain. This is one workspace with one booking surface.
10 hosts, a month
Qualify the inbound. Route it simply.
Can I qualify inbound meetings without an enterprise contract, and what do I give up?
Not for you if: Routing is the requirement: by territory, by account owner looked up in a CRM, by round-robin weighting, by named-account list. Setupp has round robin and collective assignment and nothing that reads a CRM record to pick an owner. That is a real gap and no part of this page pretends otherwise.
10 hosts, a month
The bill stops being a function of headcount.
At what team size does a flat price actually beat what I pay per seat?
Not for you if: You are one or two people and the per-seat rate you actually pay is low. The calculator below will say so plainly rather than rendering a zero, and below the crossover a per-seat plan really is cheaper.
10 hosts, a month
Which is the point. If a comparison page can be written without knowing anything about the other product, it cannot be wrong about the other product. What differs between these five is which question the reader arrived with, and which readers each one should send away.
The only prices on this site
Four of them, per workspace, and hosts are included.
Read out of the same constants the pricing page renders, so this table and that one cannot disagree.
| Plan | Hosts included | Per month |
|---|---|---|
| Free | 1 | Free |
| Pro | 3 | $19 |
| Team | 10 | $49 |
| Business | 50 | $249 |
Nothing is metered per booking at any tier, so a good month costs the same as a quiet one. Adding a host is a setting rather than a purchase, until you cross the number on your plan.
About these pages
Why they are written this way.
Why prices and screening, and not a full feature table?
Because features change quietly and a grid of ticks is wrong within a quarter. Prices are published, dated and easy to recheck, so they are the only facts about other products on these pages, each read off the company's own pricing page on 25 October 2026 and hidden automatically if 90 days pass without a recheck.
What if I pay something different from the list price?
Most teams on a contract do. Every page has a calculator that takes your seat count and your real per-seat rate and works out the crossover against our published prices, including the sizes where a per-seat plan is the cheaper one.
Do the pages ever say to stay where I am?
Every one of them, in a section headed 'when not to move', written before the rest of the page. Below the crossover a per-seat plan really is cheaper, there is no importer, and there are things Setupp does not do at all. A comparison page that cannot reach 'don't' is an advert with a calculator drawn on it.
Is Setupp affiliated with any of these companies?
No. None of them. Each name is a trademark of its owner and is used only to name the thing being compared against, and each of their prices links to the page it was read from.
Stop taking calls you would have declined.
Connect a calendar, add the questions you already ask on every call, and set your minimum. It takes about twenty minutes, and it saves the half hours you spend finding out a call was never going to work.
Free for one host, for as long as you like. You don’t need a card or a sales call to start.
