[ Comparison ]
Calendly handles booking. ark.plan handles the follow-up.
From appointment to client follow-up
When a client books, arkplan automatically creates their CRM record — no more copy-pasting between Calendly and your follow-up tool.
Built-in invoicing
Generate PDF quotes and invoices directly from your services, with Swiss VAT. Calendly has no invoicing — you need Stripe, Zapier or a separate tool.
Data stored in Switzerland
arkplan stores your data at Infomaniak in Switzerland. Our practices follow Swiss nLPD and EU GDPR. Calendly hosts in the US, under American jurisdiction (Cloud Act).

-
Can I migrate my appointments from Calendly?
If you used Google Calendar with Calendly, your events are already there — ark.plan syncs with Google Calendar, so your existing appointments will appear automatically. Otherwise, Calendly exports to CSV which you can use as a reference during the transition. -
Calendly has a free version. Does ark.plan?
ark.plan offers a free first month (no charge before day 30). The Starter plan at 19 CHF/month already includes CRM, invoicing and time tracking — features that require separate subscriptions plus third-party integrations with Calendly. -
Does ark.plan support public booking links like Calendly?
Yes. Each professional gets a public booking page with a custom URL, configurable appointment types (duration, buffer time, language) and an embeddable widget for your website.
