    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.

    X.ai is very well suited for a departmental type use where Amy has access to everyone's calendar. It is a requirement that people keep their calendars up to date and live by them. Otherwise Amy might think that you are free when you have a flight booked or are on vacation. She is extremely good for those times when a prospect agrees to talk to you at a conference. I just send them a quick email, cc Amy and tell her to set up a call, and it magically shows up on my calendar!

    Pros
    Google

    • Enables users to set their "working hours" and others can see if they are setting up a meetings a moon symbol next to their name to show it is outside of that invitees working hours
    • Allows you to easily create scheduled tasks directly on your Google Calendar

    • x.ai makes it easy to initiate, schedule, and manage meetings with internal and external constituents. Especially in the case of internal constituents, scheduling is almost instantaneous on the team plan because the AI can see the available/busy schedules for anyone in our G Suite domain and schedule meetings based on my preferences and the other person's availability.
    • The calendar function makes it easy for me to share a limited calendar with others so that they can automatically schedule a meeting with me without having to go back and forth.
    • The customer service team at x.ai is stellar. They are kind, quick to respond, and typically resolve cases on the first try. They are also incredibly receptive to feedback and new ideas that often get incorporated into the product.

    Cons
    Google
    • 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

    • One person mentioned that the zoom link isn't easy to open from the calendar appointment
    • Some people have been confused by using the names "Amy" or "Andrew", not realizing these are AI bots. So, I now use the "X.ai scheduler" to avoid confusion

    Usability
    Google
    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

    Support has been quick. We have not really had an issue, more just implementation questions.

    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.

    Heard about Claralabs AI assistant from friends using this service. But I found x.ai to be suited for my requirements. Claralabs is also good but when it comes to pricing and ROI, x.ai is better.

    Return on Investment
    Google
    • Very significant improvement in employee productivity (more than 10%), because people spend much less time arranging meetings.
    • Essential tool to develop remote work within the company during Covid.
    • No need to build an email infrastructure (significant cost reduction in IT infrastructure).

    • I have hours back in my schedule every week, meaning I have more billable time, free time, and fewer things to worry about!
    • Having an AI assistant fits for my personal brand.
