Ease of use, integrations are amazing. Our team uses this in almost every department.
Not their fault but Google is making it harder with the setting changes.
We are a multi time zone team so it is nice to be able to send a link and have someone find times that work versus guessing if you're being respectful of people's working hours.
The easy to to use website. It was so easy to connect my zoom account and to get my link to my customers. I have had no complaints from anyone who has booked a meeting with me
A few meetings were booked and a zoom link was not automatically send with the meeting confirmation. I was able to find the issue and it resolved
They make meeting with customer so simple and easy. My company used another provider in the past. This is so much better
It seamlessly integrates with Google Calendar, allowing me to send out my availability directly using Calendly, then customer invite syncs right back to Google with a new zoom event automatically added to the calendar invite.
No complaints on the app. I love using the app.
Calendly allows me to share a public link for my calendar/availability with customers, and seamlessly integrates with Gmail and Zoom. This enables customers to automatically schedule time with me, while integrating with Zoom to automatically embed a zoom meeting into each invite.
We use Calendly for various purposes in our organization. The primary purpose is to book product demos on our sales team calendars, but we also use it to book onboarding appointments for current customers, to schedule interviews during the hiring process, and to schedule meetings with vendors and third parties. I've used Calendly with Salesforce for demo bookings for many years and their new Routing for Salesforce feature is amazing. Now when someone goes to book a demo, we can route them to customer success if they are already a customer, and if they are a lead, Calendly will check to see who the assigned owner is in Salesforce and populate that person's calendar for booking. If there is no owner, we round-robin the appointments among our sales team. This ensures that people always get to the right team and the right person which has saved us a ton of time and made the process super smooth for our customers and prospects.
Honestly, nothing. The one issue I used to have with Calendly was that it couldn't find a lead/account owner in Salesforce but it does that now! The one thing that would make it even better would be the option to automatically CC another team member on event invitations. That would help out our sales process.
Leads can book demos directly on our sales team calendars. Our SDRs also use Calendly to book demos for the AEs, which helps us keep things fair (the event they use Round Robins the demos). It also provides us with consistent reporting both in Salesforce and in Calendly.
Super Helpful for Booking Calls - very client friendly
Nothing about it. it's super easy to use
Booking clients on my calendar for onboarding meetings and saving me time with Google Calendar
Website integration. Workflow and Team management
There is nothing bad about the product. Would like to see more integrations like slack
Scheduling is big time
The best thing about Calendly is the time savings. The amount of time people spend coordinating schedules to book a meeting is insane. To have a platform that allows you to automate that process in a clear manner is such a valuable tool. I wish I could get everything in my life scheduled via Calendly!
The two things I would change about Calendly are: 1) The perception that you are not being "personal" by sending someone a Calendly link. 2) Making it easier to build the workflow for more complex calendar coordination.
Calendly solves the timesuck that is coordinating schedules to book an appointment. Life shouldn't be that difficult, but it is (at times). Using Calendly streamlines one area of my life.
What I like most about Calendly is how it integrates seamlessly with the other platforms I use, including HubSpot and more, allowing me to track scheduled calls easily.
While Calendly integrates well with other platforms, there is a lack of customization options when setting up an out-of-the-box integration with HubSpot or Google.
Calendly allows me to open up my calendar to clients and, through the integration with HubSpot, means that all such activities are logged on contact and company records.
I like the custom features and how easy it is to book.
I wish the rescheduling/canceling link was more apparent to the customer.
Hard to find cancellation link.
Calendly is super easy to use, and I appreciate their intentional communication to customers. As a solopreneur, Calendly provides reasonably priced services that allow me to run my business smoothly. I can't recommend it enough!
Nothing. Calendly has always served me well.
Calendly solves my scheduling needs. I link it to my calendar and then manage my availability through the Calendly app. It's easy to update availability when my schedule changes too.
One aspect of Calendly that I truly appreciate is how it enables me to be easily accessible to both my colleagues and individuals outside of my organization with just a click. Through my personalized scheduling link, anyone can view my availability and effortlessly schedule appointments at a time that suits them best, eliminating the need for initial contact. This convenience is what I value most about Calendly, as it streamlines the process and allows others to efficiently book time with me based on their preferences.
Not only does Calendly provide me with an extensive range of features, but it surpasses my needs in terms of usability and functionality. Calendly goes above and beyond, offering me more than what I actually require for my use-case.
Coordinating and setting up meetings with stakeholders and team members in an organization like mine, is one task I find very cumbersome. Thanks to Calendly, I am having to do less in this aspect by setting up automated reminders and notifications for scheduled meetings. This eliminates the need for manual follow-ups and ensures that all participants are well-prepared and punctual for every scheduled meeting.
Very user-friendly, easy to manage, prompt responses
shows available dates to anyone who can view
organization skills, day to day tasks all in one area
It easy connects to my Gmail and Spark email
Workflows are expensive and can be confusing
Scheduling my meetings for me.
I like Calendly because it makes scheduling phone calls with clients easy. I love the ease of setting up and sharing the link with clients. I like the simplicity of the calendar design for clients, I also love how customizable it is for me when showing my availability.
None, everything has been working fine for me
Using Calendly avoids the back-and-forth when communicating different time slots. It also ensures that both parties are available and reduces phone tag.
That it integrates with my email and LinkedIn to allow easy adding of my calendly link
Sometimes, it failes to add my already integrated zoom link
Easy link and access to my calendar
