When to stay with Calendly
If you run sales calls, round-robin across a team, video meetings or routing forms, and the people booking you are mostly other businesses, Calendly is built for that.
When linkz.io fits better
If your customers are the public, you want them to see when you’re next free without clicking through, you take a deposit, and you want one link that works on Instagram, Google and the side of the truck.
Coming soon: keep Calendly and let linkz.io show your next free slot from it, with Book opening your Calendly page.
