Usability and implementation4.9

G2 currently rates SavvyCal 4.8/5 from 36 reviews and Capterra rates it 5.0/5 from 4. Reviewers consistently praise its visual calendar overlay, polished recipient experience and flexibility, though the small review sample and more advanced team setup should be kept in perspective.

Pricing and value transparency4.7

SavvyCal publishes a limited Free tier, Basic at $12/user/month or about $10/user/month on annual billing, and Premium at $20/user/month or about $17/user/month on annual billing. Annual plans save two months and there is a 30-day money-back guarantee, but active public scheduling links require a paid plan.

Integrations, security and trust4.2

SavvyCal supports Google, Outlook, iCloud and Fastmail calendars plus Zoom, Meet, Teams, Whereby, HubSpot, Close, Slack, Stripe, Zapier, API and webhooks. Its security documentation is unusually transparent about data-minimization practices, but it explicitly states SavvyCal itself does not currently hold SOC 2 or ISO 27001 certification.

Its signature calendar overlay lets invitees compare their own calendar with the host's availability instead of choosing from a disconnected list of slots. SavvyCal also supports meeting polls, team scheduling, round-robin and group modes, workflows, APIs/webhooks, conferencing integrations and focus-time controls such as ranked availability, time blocking and frequency limits.
