No: Calendly updates Salesforce records on Teams and lists no deal pipeline, and Chili Piper routes each lead to its owner in Salesforce or HubSpot, so both expect a CRM beside them. Laureo is that CRM, with booking pages, routing forms, quotes and invoices on every plan, and a booking creates or links the guest's contact.
