Likelihood to Recommend 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.
Read full review 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.
Read full review Pros 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! Read full review I can sync it with my Google Calendar, so no double bookings. I can create several different types of meetings. I can set my availability, so no meetings are scheduled when I need to be working on client work. I can set a buffer between meetings. I can set up 1:1 meetings or group meetings and even pick different locations. It automatically fills in my Google Meet instructions for my clients. It allows me to charge ahead for bookings. Can't beat the price! Read full review Cons 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. Edie Ingram Manager of Training and Organizational Development

Read full review Support Rating 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.
Read full review Alternatives Considered 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.

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.
Read full review Return on Investment 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.
