A Motion alternative for sales teams
Deals are not lost in the call. They are lost in the four days after it, when the follow up was a note in a CRM and never an hour in a week.
Why sales teams use Motion
A calendar this dense is what automatic scheduling was invented for.
Where it stops
It will move a block you meant to keep, which is uncomfortable when the block was a commitment to a person, and there is no free plan.
The week sales teams actually have
A calendar dense with calls, a pipeline full of next steps that all say follow up, and a two hour gap on Wednesday that is the only time this week anything considered could get written. Prospecting keeps getting the leftovers.
A next step in the CRM is not time in the week
The pipeline records the intention. The intention has no hour attached, so it competes with everything else and usually loses.
In UnaTask: A follow up becomes a block on a real day, which is what makes it happen.
Booking a call costs a thread
Availability negotiated over email is the tax on every deal, paid several times.
In UnaTask: A booking link that offers only the slots you want to give and knows about your focus time.
The call said things nobody wrote down
Three commitments were made on a call and two of them were remembered.
In UnaTask: A notetaker turns the call into assigned tasks, so what you promised is a task rather than a memory.
Prospecting is the first thing to be eaten
It is important and never urgent, so it gets whatever is left, which is nothing.
In UnaTask: Block it before the week fills, and see it get moved when it does.

What it costs
For a team of 5, billed yearly, Motion is about $1140 a year and UnaTask is €480 plus VAT. The two are quoted in different currencies, so we have not subtracted one from the other.
Motion: Around $19 to $29 per seat per month billed annually, more monthly. No free plan.
Common questions
Why do sales teams use Motion?
A calendar this dense is what automatic scheduling was invented for.
Where does Motion stop working for sales teams?
It will move a block you meant to keep, which is uncomfortable when the block was a commitment to a person, and there is no free plan.
Should we leave Motion?
Not necessarily, and we would rather say so. Keep Motion if your calendar is chaotic, you mostly work alone, and you would rather software reconciled it than do it yourself. Move if the missing piece is the week itself: hours on a calendar, for everyone, before the work is promised.
Does it replace our CRM?
No. The CRM owns the pipeline. UnaTask owns the week, and the follow ups the pipeline generates.
Can prospects book without seeing my calendar?
Yes. They see offered slots only, and your focus blocks are not among them.
