A tool to make scheduling the next meeting easier with calendar integrations, booking pages, and customization. Trying to schedule a meeting can lead to the hassle of back-and-forth emailing to find a time that works. (“Next month is a no-go, too. Should we try for 3 p.m. CT after the next solar eclipse?”) Also coordinating between time zones and tracking availability across personal and work calendars can be a challenge. TidyCal is presented as an…
Tidycal have the 90% of the features of Calendly but for 29$ it is the best relation price-performance. Tidycal is very simple to set up and use.Very easy integration with zoom/365/google calendar If you need to integrate with PayPal it is easy and no extra cost (We do not use)
TidyCal was a cleaner product and integrated well with our existing Google environment. For certain positions, IT for example, it was a clear choice and users on both ends found it good.
Because TidyCal has more features, more user friendly and no issues with integration or worries about any errors or overlaps that might occur. On top of that, knowing that more features will come into play in the future, it is truly an amazing application that helps in my line …
I did not select TidyCal. Ultimately I selected Appointlet because I found the interface easier to work with. They also had a very generous free program and allowed you to take payments. From what I've seen it doesn't seem like you can easily take payments directly through …
It's well suited for music students' lessons. It's well suited for online coaching, primarily through places like Zoom and more. It helps simplify things for your clients, lets you program your schedule, and allows it all to go automatically! If you are working with a senior population, it may be a little tricky for them to sign up and then really hard for them to cancel lessons. There isn't a way to go to the site and cancel. You have to pull up the confirmed email and cancel from there, but people can lose emails.
Tidycal will modify the time zones between me and the individual with whom I wish to meet.
I will instantly receive a confirmation email after a client or friend schedules a meeting with me. Booking reminder emails are sent to attendees 24 hours and 1 hour before the meeting to reduce no-shows. TidyCal is a very user-friendly and simple program. I can rapidly assemble all of my calendars for integration thanks to the straightforward interface.
Sync with multiple calendar types so my schedule is always current.
Integration with Zoom to schedule meetings, send invites, and populate my Zoom app accordingly.
Automatic email communication to all parties with all relevant details in a clear format.
Allowing team members to do the same in a way that I'm also notified of what meetings are taking place saves a lot of time in terms of coordinating to find out what other people are doing.
Well-designed interface that simplifies everything down to its clearest expression. Language instruction and interaction are wonderfully simple and clear.
After a meeting is booked, having the ability to change the location without canceling the entire booking.
Being able to offer 2 different locked in locations for certain time periods of the day within the same event. So you're not having to create 2 events for the same thing, only different locations.
Giving users permission to create their own routing forms. We run an independent business model where our users like to have control over their subscriptions.
For all reasons like workflows, UI, and the way Calendly keeps all of us engaged through the Collective forum. It's indeed undeniable that no other product covers all business needs like Calendly does. On the other side, this has also reduced the workload by enabling us to focus more on other tasks for the day
I gave Calendly an 8 because overall I think it is very much user friendly even for someone who has never used anything similar. The only issue I have had with usability is what I already stated about how the settings are in sub categories making some things difficult to find at first.
I only reached out to Support once but they were very prompt and easy to work with. I had some questions about setting up the follow-up emails for after people would do the interview. They were very helpful and gave assistance and we solved the issue very fast. I would definitely recommend.
When I started using it, there were not many competitors in this space. I've seen some like Mixmax that seem to work well for solopreneurs or where free version might be better than Calendly's free version. I use the paid version of Calendly and it's just kept serving us well so why change?
In Google Calendar, we can't do advance booking. First, we have to collaborate on confirming a time suitable for everyone before scheduling a meeting this may lead to time waste for all the parties, this problem can be solved with the help of TidyCal resulting in better time management.
