The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Vimcal the free tier is iOS only; the desktop app for Mac and PC requires the $20 per month plan; Zeeg single sign-on and SCIM only appear on the Scale tier at EUR 30 per user per month, so an organisation that needs identity governance for a hundred occasional bookers pays a premium tier price for every one of them.
  • They diverge on capability: Vimcal covers Vim-style shortcuts, Zeeg covers European hosting.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Vimcal

  • The free tier is iOS only; the desktop app for Mac and PC requires the $20 per month plan
  • Events created on the free tier carry a Created with Vimcal signature, and removing it requires the paid plan
  • Personal booking links, scheduling polls and team scheduling features are excluded from the free tier
  • The executive assistant tier costs $75 per month, or $62.50 billed yearly
  • SAML SSO, advanced security controls and a dedicated support manager are Enterprise only, and Enterprise is quote only with no published rate
  • The lower rates of $16.67 and $62.50 per month require yearly billing

Zeeg

  • Single sign-on and SCIM only appear on the Scale tier at EUR 30 per user per month, so an organisation that needs identity governance for a hundred occasional bookers pays a premium tier price for every one of them.
  • Round robin routing, which many teams treat as the basic reason to buy a team scheduler, is held back to Business at EUR 16 per user, well above where competitors place it.
  • The integration catalogue and surrounding ecosystem are much smaller than Calendly, so a workflow that depends on a niche CRM or an existing Zapier-style recipe may need building rather than switching on.
  • There are no native mobile apps, so staff manage availability and bookings through the browser, which is workable but noticeably weaker for people scheduling from the road.
  • The CRM features are light by design and will not replace a real pipeline tool, so teams risk splitting contact data between Zeeg and their actual CRM and then reconciling it.
