Overall Satisfaction with Calendly

Calendly is currently being used within our HR department, more specifically within our talent acquisition department. One big issue any recruiter faces is scheduling interviews. Oftentimes it involves phone tag and multiple emails to connect with an applicant in order to schedule an interview. With Calendly, the main business problem is addresses for my department is interview scheduling. Calendly links up with your Outlook calendar and shows candidates time slots you are available based on your real-time calendar. Calendly is a huge time saver!
  • Linking with my Outlook calendar and updating real-time is a huge benefit.
  • Calendly will automatically add a scheduled event on your calendar, no syncing or adding your own event is involved.
  • To some Calendly may need to have additional customization features, but for anyone needing a simple scheduling tool it comes highly recommended.
  • Recently, I have noticed the integration of adding my Calendly request into my Outlook calendar has been a bit delayed. I would like to see it sync up faster like it used to.
  • It has saved me time, which is worth really any price!
  • It has taken the hassle out of setting up interviews and no longer leaves me playing phone tag.
With Calendly, it syncs with your Outlook calendar so you never have to worry about over-scheduling yourself. When I used to use Doodle you had to set everything up and manage it in Doodle's program. You had to block off times and put in a lot more work for the same result. Doodle might be better when you need to schedule days of interviewing or days of meetings but for here and there interviews I would prefer Calendly.
I have never had to use the support or customer service for Calendly, which just goes to show that this program is easy to use and straightforward.
