Overall Satisfaction with Zoho Calendar

We use Zoho One, which is the entire suite of Zoho modules that seamlessly integrate. There is a desktop and mobile app that syncs, so you can have your calendar with you anywhere. A meeting or event can be added either in the Calendar app or via CRM, and it will appear in your calendar or be linked to a Lead or Contact in your CRM. Being able to have a fully synced calendar all the time is paramount.

Pros

  • Integrates with Zoho CRM
  • Integrates with Zoho Mail
  • Standalone Mobile app makes it convenient

Cons

  • Occasionally, recurring events won't appear
  • Zoho has always been responsive but the above issue still happens
  • New features are always being rolled out but mostly without prior notice
  • Like most calendars, it's great to see your day in advance
  • You can change the view from standard day, week, month
  • There is also a plan agenda view which is helpful
Since there are lots of preference options, it can be a little confusing when setting up. It does integrate with other calendars where you can choose one or two way syncing which is helpful if you keep separate personal and work calendars. You can set your start day of the week which for me I have it set to Monday. There are also time zone options which are great but still a bit confusing to me.
Since we use the full suite of Zoho modules, I'm not really sure how to answer this one, but we do occasionally use Zoho Bookings, which is like Calendarly but integrates with our Zoho Calendar when sending booking/appointment links to clients or vendors. For us, we always want to avoid duplicate entries.

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

Yes

Are you happy with Zoho Calendar's feature set?

Yes

Did Zoho Calendar live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Zoho Calendar go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Zoho Calendar again?

Yes

It's great for teams or if someone manages your calendar for you either in office or remotely. You can set parameters so if you attempt to add an event you'll receive notice of a conflict that you can override or it's a great reminder you may have entered an incorrect date or time. You can allow meeting invites to be automatically added or need to be approved. There are lots of color coding options to suit your needs.

Using Zoho Calendar

1 - I'm the sole user of Zoho Calendar, so I'm the one who maintains and depends on it for my schedule. I can accept an email calendar invite, which will add it to my calendar, but I rarely do that as I find most calendar invites lacking in the necessary details to make it helpful.
1 - Since it's just me, if you read my previous response, that answers this question.
  • Keeping track of meetings and events
  • Blocking out my work schedule
  • Enabling me to send a Zoho Bookings link without concern of a conflict
  • Visually seeing if my schedule is realistic or needs modification
  • Having it sync with the mobile app is critical
  • Being able to schedule an event or meeting outside of my office
  • Sharing my calendar with my wife so she sees how hard I work
  • If I had a virtual assistant they could maintain my calendar
  • My wife can see my calendar and know if I'm in a meeting before she calls
  • I review my calendar weekly to make sure I didn't miss anything
  • While reviewing my calendar, I'll recall client comments and add to their profile
I subscribe to Zoho One so I use many of the modules that come with that single subscription. I've had intermittent issues with scheduled Zoho Meetings through Zoho CRM not appearing in my Zoho Calendar. Zoho has been working on the issue but it will be fixed for a while and then I'll miss a meeting because it wasn't appearing.

Evaluating Zoho Calendar and Competitors

Yes - We've been Zoho users for about 10 years so the last time I used something else it was software called Daylight. It worked great but it wasn't cloud based which is the reason we switched to Zoho. At the time, we reviewed no less than 5 different software packages but most were single solution software and didn't have the full featured integration that is offered in Zoho.
  • Cloud Solutions
  • Scalability
  • Integration with Other Systems
  • Ease of Use
For a while when we were using Daylight as our CRM, we also were using AccountEdge which changed to MYOB and not sure if it is still around. Both accounting software was QuickBooks like. We had to enter client/vendor data in Daylight and then re-enter it into our accounting software increasing the chance for human error and if there were any changes, that required duplication of entry once again. When we switched to the various Zoho modules, that was completely elminiated greatly optimizing our operation.
I cannot think of anything we'd change other than the fact that there are more options available now than then. But I have not seen any other single sign-on software that is as fully integrated and covers virtually every aspect of business operations under Zoho One. It doesn't make sense to have multiple software with connectors or on Zaps to integrate.

Zoho Calendar Support

Support has been excellent. As always, they are quickly responsive, and I feel they genuinely wish to address and fix any issues. It's unfortunate that my issues with meetings created in Zoho CRM don't always appear in my Zoho Calendar. While they mostly appear, my confidence level on any given week that I can see what is on my schedule is decidedly lacking.
ProsCons
Good followup
Kept well informed
Support understands my problem
Support cares about my success
Quick Initial Response
Slow Resolution
I didn't purchase premium support because I feel my needs are basic, and I'm not trying to do anything unusual with my calendar, so it shouldn't be necessary. Also, I didn't know that premium support was an offer that Zoho Calendar has. I'm also the type of person who never purchases an extended warranty.
Yes - As I've mentioned several times in my answer/review to previous queries, I've had an ongoing yet intermittent issue with recurring meetings not always appearing on my Zoho Calendar. I've reported this issue, and it's been corrected many times. Unfortunately, the issue has appeared again, and Zoho support is working on it. However, not having a meeting appear in your calendar when you're dependent on it is not good, to say the least.
They are always very willing to address the issue. They acknowledge they are working on it and have even gone so far as to do a remote session with me to see if they can figure out why I'm having this issue. So, I do appreciate that level of support, yet I wish the actual issue would be finally resolved.
