    I think Calendar is inferior to Calendly.

    Chose Calendar
    Calendar has some very unique and useful features that other apps and software don’t have for scheduling multiple people and teams. Calendar also is easy to share and use.

    Chose Calendar
    The calendar application's user interface is first-rate. It simplifies scheduling, which is a problem that most individuals face on a regular basis. As a result, it challenges the idea that giving a calendar link to someone represents a lack of personalization. You may set up a …

    Chose Calendar
    Calendar has a fantastic user interface. It makes scheduling simple, which is something that most I people deal with on a daily basis. It also turns the notion that "sending someone a calendar link is impersonal" on its head. You may schedule a meeting in any of a person's …

    I believe Calendar is the de-facto standard for scheduling and meeting these days. If you want to use it in an enterprise environment, it has a cost per user so I consider it to be a professional tool. If you have a very small business or personal matters, Calendar outside of Workspace is a better option, although it's almost the same tool.

    I think it's appropriate for everyone that meets with customers, meets with people within their businesses. I even put my personal calendar on my work calendar. I'm just looking at it every day, so I think everyone could use it.

    Cons

    • The booking page is really helpful for external people who want to chat with me, but so few people use it, that it makes it more frustrating. The solution exists but nobody is using it. It needs to be highlighted more
    • You have to switch between email accounts or set up additional calendars to schedule work events vs personal events
    • integrations with other calendars don't update quickly, so sometimes a coworkers vacation doesn't show up in the calendar until much later

    The platform itself is pretty user friendly even if you don't have a technical background. You can easily schedule meetings, block out focus time, update your time off, and add meeting notes. The settings are easily mapped out in terms of functionality and if you need help you can easily search for an answer on Google search

    Most of the other services we would use don't have the same integration with other Google services that Google Calendar has. The ability to view and set things from your email is very convenient. So is the ability to have your notifications automatically show up on an Android phone as a reminder.
