# Cals vs Google Calendar appointment schedules

If you already pay for Google Workspace, appointment schedules are built into your calendar. Cals adds Microsoft calendars, team scheduling, client hubs and your own brand.

## The short version

Pick Google appointment schedules if you work alone in Google Workspace and need a simple booking page with nothing extra to set up.

Pick Cals if you also use Microsoft calendars, need round robin or collective meetings, or want branded pages and client hubs.
