Overall Satisfaction with Google Calendar

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Google Calendar across the whole organisation. It allows us to schedule internal & external meetings at convenient times for those staff members involved & easily make changes to appointments. The description allows us to include important information relevant to each meeting, including zoom links, notes about the clients' expectations of the meeting, agendas, addresses, etc.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Syncs with other software
App works really well
Allows sharing with specific people

Cons

Unable to edit appointments made though booking software directly in GCal
I'd like to have a field for contact number & a way to SMS confirm appointments
An option to send reminders to all calendars for appointments

Return on Investment

Saves so much time organising meetings
In conjunction with Acuity has automated client reviews

Alternatives Considered
