Overall Satisfaction with Calendly

Customer support is 100% via email, which is ok, but very annoying. No matter how big the issue, it is 100% via email. This is true with the paid or the free version. They will ask the same scripted questions and send the same scripted "self-help" messages regardless of what you type. It is a good product, it is very helpful and will make your life easier. It, however, doesn't work great with Microsoft Office/Outlook. If you choose to use this service, unless you need the features that come with the paid version, I recommend getting the free version.
  • Scheduling appointments.
  • When it is working, it is very helpful.

No

If you are not very tech-oriented, try to find another solution due to the fact that all customer support is via email. If you can't figure it out based upon the email you sent and the one they sent you, then it is your issue. Also, it takes forever to get a response. My syncing issue has been going on for over 4 months.
