Overall Satisfaction with Calendly

What a wonderful way to organise dates :) I work with clients globally and meetings are my all day business! I use Calendly to set up meetings and there's never a day I have to build booking related conversation with my clients, Calendly does it for me seamlessly! Love the fact that the team never fails to grow better in functionality.
  • Meeting reminders are set using workflows.
  • Ability to set up different meeting slots using the "Event" feature.
  • Possibility to work with multiple time zones.
  • Features that support pre-meeting notes/pointers.
  • I love the UI, but it will be definitely great if colors can change a bit.
  • Workflows are game changers, but having an automated system to send post-call notes as per different scenarios will be helpful.
  • Call confirmations can be indicated in a much brighter and visible way.
  • Workflows.
  • Multiple events.
  • Event settings for working hours and days.
  • I get to work with clients globally, able to manage multiple meetings without any hassle.
  • Content appropriate time periods possible with events (30 minutes, 45 minutes etc)
  • Meeting links that are customizable helps me capture more information right at the link, making every bit productive.
  • Zoom
Initially I used only Zoom to set up meetings. Had no clue how to make the best scheduling process in place. And them, Calendly came in. This was a game changer.

Zoom allows to just create meetings, but Calendly is absolute convenience! There's zero requirement to follow up with customers to understand their availability.

For all reasons like workflows, UI, and the way Calendly keeps all of us engaged through the Collective forum. It's indeed undeniable that no other product covers all business needs like Calendly does.

On the other side, this has also reduced the workload by enabling us to focus more on other tasks for the day.
