Overall Satisfaction with Google Calendar

We use it to schedule meetings, whether those are ad hoc or recurring. People also use it to let people know when they'll be out of the office, or what their standard working hours are. Overall it makes it much easier to manage a fully remote team because we know when everyone is available.

Pros

  • set recurring meetings
  • integrate with tasks that are assigned to people with due dates
  • see the availability of coworkers to find an appropriate meeting time

Cons

  • The booking page is really helpful for external people who want to chat with me, but so few people use it, that it makes it more frustrating. The solution exists but nobody is using it. It needs to be highlighted more
  • You have to switch between email accounts or set up additional calendars to schedule work events vs personal events
  • integrations with other calendars don't update quickly, so sometimes a coworkers vacation doesn't show up in the calendar until much later
  • Faster booking of larger meetings without having to ask everyone when they're available
  • Seamless booking with external people across video conferencing platforms
  • Easier to organize meetings around deep work time
It's so simple a child could do it. I've been using Google Calendar in my work for such a long time that I don't even think about it anymore. The Slack integration also makes it easy to get notified about upcoming meetings. I really enjoy how much mental load it takes off
Google Calendar is more ubiquitous. So many people use it, and it integrates with other calendar apps so easily that it was the obvious choice. We use it for everything, and it's never a problem for people using other calendar apps. Because it doesn't cause any headaches for us, or the people we want to talk to, we don't have to worry about how we make it work.

Do you think Google Calendar delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Google Calendar's feature set?

Yes

Did Google Calendar live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Google Calendar go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Google Calendar again?

Yes

It's great for meetings, events, tasks, meeting and event locations, synchronizing across time zones, setting up video conferencing through Google Meet. With these features it's really easy to create events with internal or external people. The integration with the Zoom calendar, Microsoft Teams, and other video conference software makes it easy to centralize everything. I also like adding webinars to my calendar so people know when I'm available
