CalGet
AddCalLooking for a CalGet alternative?
You're probably here because you hit a usage cap, need more team seats, or want features like Smart Links. Here's an honest comparison to help you decide.
TL;DR — The quick version
- 29-48% cheaper at equivalent tiers ($12/mo vs $16/mo for starter plans)
- Unlimited calendar adds on ALL paid plans vs CalGet's 1,000-10,000 caps
- Smart Links for campaign tracking with UTM parameters — CalGet doesn't offer this
- Honest note: CalGet is a solid product. We think AddCal offers more value, but both platforms handle the basics well.
Bottom line: If you're outgrowing CalGet's limits or need Smart Links and better team support, AddCal is likely the better fit.
Why people look for alternatives
We hear the same reasons over and over from people who switch.
Paying more for less
CalGet's Starter plan costs $16/month but only includes 1,000 calendar adds and a single team member. You're paying a premium for features that should be standard.
Tight usage caps
Even CalGet's Standard plan at $32/month limits you to 10,000 adds and 2 team members. Growing teams and successful campaigns quickly outgrow these limits.
Missing campaign tracking
Without Smart Links, there's no way to pass UTM parameters through calendar links. If you're running multiple campaigns, you can't tell which one drove the adds.

Core Features
| Feature | AddCal | CalGet |
|---|---|---|
| Add to Calendar Links | ||
| RSVP Management | ||
| Subscription Calendars | ||
| Embeddable Calendars | ||
| Custom Branding | ||
| Analytics Dashboard |
Both platforms handle the basics. If add-to-calendar links and RSVPs are all you need, the decision comes down to pricing, limits, and how much time you spend in the dashboard.
Advanced Features
| Feature | AddCal | CalGet |
|---|---|---|
| Smart Links with Parameters AddCal Advantage | ||
| Zapier Integration | ||
| API Access | ||
| Real-time Sync | ||
| Multiple Calendar Support | ||
| Custom RSVP Forms |
AddCal's Smart Links let you pass UTM parameters and custom data through calendar links, which is essential for tracking campaign performance. CalGet doesn't offer this, making it harder to attribute calendar adds to specific campaigns.
Usage Limits & Pricing
| Feature | AddCal | CalGet |
|---|---|---|
| Starting Price AddCal Advantage | $12/month | $16/month (Starter) |
| Business Plan Price AddCal Advantage | $20/month | $32/month (Standard) |
| Event Adds/Clicks AddCal Advantage | Unlimited | 1,000 (Starter) / 10,000 (Standard) |
| RSVPs per Event AddCal Advantage | 250 (Premium) / Unlimited (Business) | 500 (Starter) / 5,000 (Standard) |
| Team Members AddCal Advantage | 5 (Premium) / Unlimited (Business) | 1 (Starter) / 2 (Standard) |
| Calendar Subscribers AddCal Advantage | 2,000 (Premium) / Unlimited (Business) | 500 (Starter) / 1,500 (Standard) |
This is the biggest gap. CalGet caps calendar adds at 1,000-10,000 depending on your plan, and limits team members to 1-2. AddCal offers unlimited calendar adds on every paid plan and up to unlimited team members on Business, so you never outgrow your plan.
Who should switch (and who shouldn't)
AddCal is a good fit if you...
- Are hitting CalGet's 1,000-10,000 add limits
- Need more than 1-2 team members
- Want Smart Links for campaign tracking
- Want to pay less for more features
- Need unlimited calendar subscribers
CalGet might still be right if you...
- Are deeply integrated with CalGet's API in custom code
- Usage is well within CalGet's limits
- Only need a single team member and don't need Smart Links
What our customers say
"We switched from CalGet after hitting the 1,000 add limit during a product launch. AddCal's unlimited adds mean we never worry about caps again."
"CalGet's 2-member team limit was a dealbreaker. With AddCal Business, our whole marketing team can manage calendars without sharing one login."
"The Smart Links feature alone was worth switching. Being able to track which campaigns drive calendar adds has transformed how we measure event promotion."
