Appointlet is a great alternative to Calendly
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Appointlet is great! It is a very similar tool to Calendly, but they have a much better free plan. They have all the same features as Calendly, and they eliminate the issue of having to go back and forth to figure out a meeting time. They also have a feature where you can accept payments directly on your booking, which is a great addition that Calendly doesn't offer.
Pros
- Allows you to create multiple different meeting types
- Has a scheduling page for all meeting lengths or for specific meetings
- Easily allows you to connect multiple calendars to check schedules
Cons
- They don't seem to have a default schedule available ,meaning you have to customize your availability for each meeting
- I'm unsure if they offer time zone support when you are the one travelling (ie. can you easily change your time zone if you are going away)
- Reminder emails are only sent out if you purchase their premium plan
Likelihood to Recommend
Appointlet is a fantastic tool. It allows you to easily send a link to people to book meetings with you. I put it in my email signature so my clients know they can book a meeting with me anytime they need to. It eliminates the "when can you meet" back and forth emails, and is an incredible tool.
