Considered Both Products	Doodle Bob Burleigh President Chose Doodle Actively shopping to replace Doodle Helpful? Matthew Gardner Director of Customer Success Chose Doodle We use Typeform for more complex uses but Doodle is used internally for submitting meal choices, voting, etc. Typeform is way overkill for that use case. Doodle is integrated into Slack so it makes this super streamlined! Incentivized Helpful? Ty Johnson Project Manager Chose Doodle For me, it is about usability. Doodle continues to be the easiest for me to maneuver and make my own. I have experienced Doodle as more customizable for me. It meets my needs and I can usually ask someone a question and they are already familiar with how to manipulate Doodle as … Incentivized Helpful? Edie Ingram Manager of Training and Organizational Development Chose Doodle Doodle is more customizable and I love the animation aspect. It is missing the engagement piece, but again I am new to it so there may be features in Doodle that I haven't discovered yet. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Executive Chose Doodle Doodle is far superior to Calendly. It's more intuitive, easier to log in and understand the interface, and has a dynamic dashboard where you can do everything yourself and see history. I selected Doodle because it isn't just a chrome extension. It has so much more to it than … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Manager Chose Doodle I have not used another scheduling tool outside of Doodle. Incentivized Helpful? Ty Johnson Education Manager Chose Doodle In comparison to the other tools that are used within our organization, Doodle stacks up to be more user friendly, convenient, faster, easily shareable, you do not need to be in IT in order to use Doodle, and results come right to your email. I will continue to use Doodle to … Incentivized Helpful? NK Nursultan Kalybek Vice President Chose Doodle What we would do before was to create chats with multiple participants, where we would set an agenda and announce there would be a meeting planned, and then proposing time options for that meeting, which would then be confirmed or replaced by other people. Doodle simplifies … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Employee Chose Doodle SurveyMonkey has many more tools available and works great for advanced sign-ups with an element of information collection. Doodle, however, is much better when you're trying to quickly find a common time slot for a meeting, and virtually takes 1 minute to set up and send out to … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Professional Chose Doodle Outlook calendar availability is tricky because there can be blocked-off calendar times during which a person may still be available. Doodle allows the user to make the determination of whether they are available to meet. Incentivized Helpful? Casey Herrmann Graduate Admissions Representative Chose Doodle Doodle works better than Microsoft scheduler because you can send to individuals outside of your organization. You do not need an account to respond. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Manager Chose Doodle Doodle is more efficient for getting a quick look at timelines and better identifying days/times to host a meeting or event. However, Outlook is more efficient for a wider range of tasks, such as sending calendar invites and visualizing personal/business dates. Incentivized Helpful? MUKESHI RANI MALIK Assistant Manager Chose Doodle I think Doodle is like Calendly on steroids. I have used Calendly for a pretty long time and I really like it but I feel Doodle's added functionality definitely makes it the more attractive option. Also, their pricing isn't that different so you just get more bang for your buck … Incentivized Helpful? Kinga Odziemek Owner & Creative Director Chose Doodle It is just more user-friendly and it took us less time to onboard each and every one of our employees. It is also light and not really advanced as for usage, very intuitive even for those who never used this kind of software before. And it looks much nicer than the competition! Incentivized Helpful? Emily Keener Instructional Designer & Learning Technologist Chose Doodle Microsoft Scheduling Assistant - works well if users have Microsoft calendars, but also presumes the user has put every event into their calendar - does not give the person a preference in scheduling meetings Incentivized Helpful? Alicia Meyer Resident Director Chose Doodle Doodle allows you to view more options simultaneously than Calendly, but Calendly offers more private interaction. Calendly is helpful for scheduling one on one meetings, but Doodle is much more effective with groups. Incentivized Helpful? Brad Henderson Co-Founder/Chief Janitor Chose Doodle For the same reasons noted previously, Doodle allows for the organizer to ultimately select/accept the time that works for them. Many competitors only allow you to show available times and the appointment goes directly into the organizer's calendar. I typically prefer to have a … Incentivized Helpful? Becca Guler Learning Specialist Chose Doodle I use Sign-Up Genius to list my open appointments and let students sign up for individual spots; I use the anonymous option so that only I can see the name and to others it simply appears as "already filled". Doodle is simpler in some ways that Sign-Up Genius, but Doodle's … Incentivized Helpful? Elaine Foster Customer Success Manager Chose Doodle Doodle is a platform that allows you to see others' availability, while Calendly and YCBM require respondents to actually make a booking at one of the times you offer. Doodle allows more flexibility in that you can see if there are multiple times when multiple people are … Incentivized Helpful? Ramona Burton Director of State and Local Assessment Chose Doodle I personally don't know of any other app that does what Doodle does. Incentivized Helpful?

Likelihood to Recommend	Doodle AG Doodle is great when you need to coordinate dates among a group and don't want to send a bunch of group emails or texts. It allows a number of dates to be proposed and the group can easily see those dates that are most preferred. If you need to do something more complex than that it may not be your tool. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Doodle AG Doodle allows you to view multiple meeting times simultaneously. I may never have 100% of my team available, but I can see that I have three other options with 90% availability. Doodle is a free resource that doesn't require users to create an account or exist in a network. I simply send the link and see the responses. Doodle notifies you as people respond, making the scheduling process quick and easy. Also, you can confirm a time through the software! Incentivized Alicia Meyer Resident Director Read full review
Cons	Doodle AG I wish that it offered more options in backgrounds, characters and props without having an additional cost, but that is to be expected. I would like an easier way to add my own fonts, characters , props etc, because I am a new learner this may not be an issue as I get more familiar with the software. I don't like all the sales emails I received trying to upgrade or add to my purchase. Incentivized Edie Ingram Manager of Training and Organizational Development Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	Doodle AG Easy to use and basically free. Incentivized Matthew Gardner Director of Customer Success Read full review
Support Rating	Doodle AG Doodle has customer service support available as needed, but honestly, it is so easy to use that I have rarely had to seek support. They are always a click away and responsive to resolving any need or to clarify the next best step to using Doodle to meet my needs. Incentivized Ty Johnson Project Manager Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Doodle AG For the same reasons noted previously, Doodle allows for the organizer to ultimately select/accept the time that works for them. Many competitors only allow you to show available times and the appointment goes directly into the organizer's calendar. I typically prefer to have a bit more control over that. Also, visually Doodle is more intuitive in how you schedule appointments than Calendly. I think Calendly tries to get a bit too cute with their interface instead of sticking to a more standard, familiar calendar interface when setting an appointment. Incentivized Brad Henderson Co-Founder/Chief Janitor Read full review
Return on Investment	Doodle AG Improved efficiency by avoiding the slow and inefficient process of emailing back and forth to set meeting dates and times. Allows for more informed decisions regarding meetings or making decisions, as all options can be laid out visually in a way that isn't possible in an email.
