Compare
ManageCal and Teamup, compared honestly.
Both are shared calendars built around sub-calendars and nine access levels, and both are made for organisations rather than individuals. Teamup is established and does more; ManageCal is new and does a smaller set of things differently. This page says which is which.
| Teamup | ManageCal | |
|---|---|---|
| Sub-calendars and folders | Yes | Yes |
| Access levels | Nine, per user per sub-calendar | Nine, per person per sub-calendar |
| Calendar views | Twelve, including Scheduler, Timeline, Table and Year | Five: Day, Week, Month, Agenda and List |
| Custom field types | Four: single-line text, formatted text, choice and number | Nine: adds date, checkbox, web address, email address and duration |
| Changing a field’s type | Not possible once the field is created | Allowed when no stored value would be lost |
| Apps | iPhone, iPad and Android | None yet; runs in a web browser |
| Sharing outside accounts | Links without accounts, embedded calendars, event pages | None yet; everyone signs in |
| Integrations | iCalendar feeds, Zapier, Microsoft Teams and an API | None yet |
| Single sign-on | Yes, including Azure, OIDC and SCIM | None yet; sign-in by email link |
| Priced per | Master calendar | Workspace, which holds several calendars |
Where Teamup is stronger.
- More ways to see the calendar
- Teamup has twelve views, including Scheduler (a column per sub-calendar), Timeline (a row per sub-calendar), Table, Year, Tiles, Multi-day and Multi-week. ManageCal has five. If your team plans resources side by side, Teamup’s Scheduler and Timeline views have no equivalent in ManageCal today.
- Apps for phones and tablets
- Teamup has apps for iPhone, iPad and Android. ManageCal runs in a web browser and has no app yet.
- Sharing beyond your own people
- Teamup can share a calendar by a link that needs no account, embed a calendar in a website, and publish a page for a single event. ManageCal has none of these yet: everyone who sees a ManageCal calendar has been added and signs in.
- Integrations and sign-on
- Teamup offers iCalendar feeds, a Zapier integration, Microsoft Teams, a documented API, and single sign-on with Azure, OIDC and SCIM. ManageCal offers no integrations yet, and sign-in is by a link sent to your email address.
- More on each event
- Teamup events can carry signups, comments and attachments, and Teamup sends change notifications and a daily agenda by email. ManageCal events have none of these yet.
- Your own bookings under “no details”
- In Teamup, Modify my events, no details hides the details of events created by other people. In ManageCal the no-details levels hide the details of every event on that sub-calendar, the person’s own included.
- A track record
- Teamup says it is trusted by over five million users. ManageCal is new, in development, and has no customers to point to yet.
Where ManageCal is different.
- More field types, and fields that can change
- ManageCal has nine field types to Teamup’s four, adding date, checkbox, web address, email address and duration. Teamup’s own help says a custom field’s type cannot be changed once it is created. In ManageCal it can, whenever no stored value would be lost: turning text into a choice makes an option of each existing value, and a change that would lose something is refused with a count and an example.
- Who and Where are ordinary fields
- In ManageCal, Who and Where are two text fields each calendar starts with. They can be renamed, retyped into a choice of your rooms, hidden or deleted, like any other field.
- Withheld means withheld, in search too
- A Reserved event in ManageCal is stripped of its title, description and every field value before it leaves the server, it never matches a search or a filter, and a refused double booking will not name it to someone who cannot read it.
- Changes that count before they happen
- Deleting a sub-calendar or a field in ManageCal first shows exactly how many events it will change, by running the change and rolling it back. Two administrators editing at once cannot silently overwrite each other: the later save is refused.
- One price for several calendars
- Teamup prices each master calendar. ManageCal prices the workspace, and a workspace holds several calendars: five on Team, twenty on Business.
The plans side by side.
Teamup’s prices are per master calendar, in US dollars, as its pricing page showed them on the date below; the first figure is billed annually and the second monthly. ManageCal’s are per workspace, and are indicative: ManageCal is in development and nothing is charged yet.
| Plan | Price a month | Users | Sub-calendars | Custom fields |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 5 | 5 | 1 |
| Plus | $12 annually, $15 monthly | 12 | 12 | 1 |
| Pro | $30 annually, $35 monthly | 25 | 25 | 10 |
| Business | $70 annually, $85 monthly | 50 | 70 | 20 |
| Enterprise | $125 annually, $160 monthly | 100 | 150 | 50 |
| Plan | Price | People | Sub-calendars | Custom fields | Includes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 5 | 8 | 3 | 1 calendar |
| Team | $20 a month | 40 | 40 | 15 | 5 calendars |
| Business | $50 a month | 100 | 100 | 50 | 20 calendars |
It depends on what you are scheduling.

- Your fields will change as you learn what you need, without starting them again.
- Some people must see that time is taken and learn nothing else, including from search.
- You run several calendars and want one price for them.

ManageCal vs Teamup: questions.
Is ManageCal cheaper than Teamup?
On list prices, ManageCal’s Team plan is $20 a month for 40 people across 5 calendars, where Teamup’s Pro plan is $30 a month billed annually for 25 users on one master calendar. Prices are indicative while ManageCal is in development, and nothing is charged yet.
Do the permission levels work the same way?
They share nine names and the same idea of setting access per sub-calendar. Two differences: in ManageCal the no-details levels hide a person’s own events too, and Add Only cannot change an event once it is added, where Teamup allows a short window.
Can I move my calendar from Teamup to ManageCal?
There is no importer today. You would set up the sub-calendars, fields and people in ManageCal and enter the events there.
Which has more calendar views?
Teamup, with twelve to ManageCal’s five. ManageCal has Day, Week, Month, Agenda and List.
Is ManageCal affiliated with Teamup?
No. They are separate products from separate companies. Teamup is a trademark of its owner, used here only to compare the two.
