What you give up vs Calendly
- Scope is hotel-specific; not a general-purpose appointment scheduler
- Channel manager integrations (OTA sync) are limited compared to commercial PMS solutions
- Mobile app for guests/staff is absent out of the box
- PrestaShop heritage makes theming and customisation non-trivial
What you gain
- • Full data ownership — self-host QloApps on your own infrastructure.
- • No per-seat SaaS bill (Calendly: per-seat fees for multiple event types).
- • Open-source code you can audit and extend (OSL-3.0).
