HoneyBook alternative
HoneyBook is a broad all-in-one with scheduling, automations and lead forms spread across three tiers. GoPlanEvent does a narrower job: you add a client, send an agreement they sign online, send invoices, and see the booking on your Google Calendar. One plan, $9.99 per user per month.
No card needed · $9.99 per user per month after your trial
Every business is different, but these are good questions to ask before you choose:
Many solo owners only use contracts, invoices and a calendar.
Features such as the scheduler and automations sit in higher tiers.
Team size changes which plan you need.

What GoPlanEvent does
Save your packages once. The client name, date, time, location, package, total and payment schedule fill in for you. Choose 50/50, 20/40/40 or a custom plan.
Clients sign on any device without creating an account. You see when it was sent, opened and signed. The signer's name, date, time and IP address are recorded, and a signed PDF goes to both of you.
Automatic numbers, line items, due dates, your logo and business name, and a PDF download. Create them from the payments in a signed agreement.
Agreements and invoices go out from your own address. Booked clients appear on Google Calendar and the event moves when the date changes. Teammates assigned to a client get an invitation.
Invite teammates and assign them to clients. Run more than one business in one account, each with its own logo and color.
See unsigned agreements, overdue or upcoming invoices, and your next four weeks of events, plus reports by period.
Solo owners and small teams (photographers, videographers, planners, DJs, florists, decorators) who want agreements, invoices and calendar in one place without learning a large system, with one price and no feature tiers.
If you want scheduling, automated workflows, lead capture forms and a broader all-in-one toolkit, HoneyBook lists those features and GoPlanEvent does not offer them. If those matter most, HoneyBook may be the better fit.
