Vectera

Vectera is an online meeting and scheduling platform designed for professionals who conduct client meetings, including healthcare practitioners holding appointments with patients. It combines appointment booking and secure video meetings in a single tool, addressing the inconvenience of using separate systems for scheduling, calendar management and video calls. Professionals such as therapists, coaches, financial advisers and consultants often need a solution that is simple for clients to use, protects confidentiality and presents a professional image, without the complexity of enterprise collaboration suites. Vectera’s approach is to provide a branded client-facing experience where clients can book appointments, receive reminders and join meetings directly from a browser, without installing software or creating accounts. The platform, which originated in Belgium, places emphasis on data security and compliance with European privacy regulations, which matters to practitioners handling sensitive personal information. The combination of booking and meeting in one place reduces friction for clients who are not technically confident.

Key features include online booking pages linked to the professional’s availability, synchronisation with Google Calendar and Microsoft Outlook, automated email and text reminders, and personal meeting rooms that stay consistent across appointments. Video meetings support screen sharing, file sharing, a collaborative whiteboard, document co-browsing and meeting notes, helping professionals guide clients through information during sessions. Custom branding allows businesses to display their logo and colours, and team features support scheduling across multiple advisers or practitioners. Integrations with CRM systems and other business applications help keep client data aligned, and meeting recordings can be captured where appropriate and permitted. Encryption and hosting in the European Union support confidentiality and GDPR compliance. Vectera is used by independent professionals, healthcare and wellness practitioners, financial services firms, legal advisers, educators and other client-facing businesses. A free version is available alongside a free trial, and paid plans start from around USD 9.99 per month.
