Acuity Scheduling vs CalHouse: What's right for me?

Sure, we belive CalHouse is a great scheduling software. But we want to keep this comparison honest and let you decide what's best for you: Acuity Scheduling, CalHouse, or another app.

Both Acuity Scheduling and CalHouse offer unlimited meetings, calendar connections, and  group scheduling. Though, there are small differences between the two that pile up.

In terms of features, one of the key differences between Acuity Scheduling and CalHouse is that Acuity doesn't have custom branding, while CalHouse does.

Enjoy one-off pricing

CalHouse offers liftime pricing. Pay a single time for the tool and enjoy it forever, just like things used to be before.

Acuity Scheduling works with monthly subscriptions, and they are not the cheapest scheduling software. Their pricing ranges from $16 to $61 per user/month.

CalHouse Pricing Page

CalHouse is like an investment in your work. Instead of paying monthly fees for Acuity, you can get the lifetime offer and enjoy all of CalHouse by paying a single time.

Most of the other online scheduling apps run on monthly subscriptions too. Hence, this is one of the reasons why CalHouse is rather unique compared to Acuity or other apps.

Custom branding

This feature is essential for small and large businesses, and Acuity misses it. To have custom branding is to personalize your calendars, appointments, and everything else.

If you have a business, you'd like to add your personal touch in most places. This includes logos, brand names, specific colours, and other things that make it feel like home.

With CalHouse, you can add custom branding and even offer your users more of a "personal" connection by having a fine touch of your company's branding instead of nothing.

Availability of a free plan

You can use CalHouse with the free plan without encountering any hidden fees or huge limitations. Our free plan is quite generous and allows you to get work done the right way.

Though, Acuity Scheduling doesn't have any free plan. They have a 7-day free trial, but frankly, that's not enough time for you to get used to everything within the app and how it works.

And then, after the 7-day free trial expires, you'll have to start paying for Acuity if you want to stick with it: $16 to $61 per user/month.

None of that applies to CalHouse — we make things simpler: either stick with the free plan for as long as you wish, or pay just once and enjoy all of CalHouse forever.

Rich calendar connections

Connect any of your calendars to CalHouse: Google, iCloud, Outlook, Microsoft 365 — you name them, we'll connect all in just one place.

CalHouse is like a central hub where all of your calendars are synchronized. Using CalHouse means that you won't have to open several apps just to look at the same thing.

All of your events are synced in one place.

Though, with Acuity Scheduling, things are a little bit different. For example, they lack the Apple or iCloud calendar connection. If you're already using it, you wouldn't be able to sync it.

With CalHouse, you can connect your Apple device's calendar and sync it to the rest. If you're already using your iPhone, iPad, or Mac computer's calendar, you're safe with CalHouse.

Frequently asked questions

No items found.

Are your electronic signatures legal?

Our signatures are 100% legally binding, as SignHouse is built around US and International Laws concerning digital signatures. SignHouse eSignatures are on par with paper signatures, from a legal point of view!

Signing papers digitally started being equal to physical, handwritten signatures in the U.S. eSignature Act of 2000 (U.S. Federal Act) + the Uniform Electronic Transaction Act (UETA). As a consequence, laws in other countries have followed suit. SignHouse is built around these laws.

Are you adding an actual eSignature or just an image?

All signatures are a real, eSignature that is 100% legally binding.

We save important, relevant data (that can be used legally in all types of situations, including in courts) such as identifiable details of a person, IP addresses, etc, just so our electronic signatures can be as valid as digital signatures can get.

What about privacy and security?

SignHouse's signatures are secure for all kinds of businesses and companies. All our signatures happen on a secure, SSL-connected domain. Documents are not made public and unique keys are generated through SignHouse so that privacy and security are at the foundation of the documents on our platform.

How do my signees get to sign with SignHouse?

We've streamlined the signing process so that your signees can sign your documents with no hurdles at all — and with the smallest amount of steps required. It can take as little as 30 seconds!
