SyncGene tries to be a jack-of-all-trades, syncing calendars, contacts, and tasks across dozens of platforms. Don't Double Book Me does one thing and does it well: keeping your Google and Outlook calendars in sync so you never get double-booked. At $20/year with unlimited syncs and real-time updates, it's the focused alternative to SyncGene's complex pricing tiers.
SyncGene relies on scheduled sync intervals, so your calendars only update when the next polling cycle runs. Don't Double Book Me uses webhook-based real-time sync, so changes appear on your other calendar within seconds. When someone books a meeting on your work calendar, your personal calendar reflects it immediately.
SyncGene's premium plan limits you to 5 sources and costs $150-180/year depending on billing cycle. Don't Double Book Me gives you unlimited calendar syncs for $20/year with no source caps, no feature gates, no complexity.
SyncGene's team plan caps you at 4 members with 20 total sources. Our team plan has no member limit, no source restrictions, and costs just $16/seat/year, with consolidated billing and priority support included.
Don't Double Book Me was built specifically for professionals who need to block time across calendars without exposing sensitive details. You control exactly how synced events appear: as "Busy" blocks, private events, or with full details. SyncGene's broader sync approach doesn't offer the same level of granular visibility control for calendar blocking.
