What problems is Cal ID solving and how is that benefiting you?
My entire professional focus is on fostering better conversations, yet before using Cal ID, I found myself trapped in frustrating meta-conversations. I was constantly caught in endless email and chat exchanges—"Does 15:00 work? No? How about Tuesday?"—and clients would sometimes arrive at the wrong time due to time zone confusion. On top of that, my afternoons were often double-booked because my personal and work calendars didn’t sync properly.
Now, everything flows much more smoothly. For discovery and chemistry calls, when someone reaches out after a talk or a LinkedIn post, I simply send them a single link. Cal ID checks all my calendars in the background, only displays my actual availability, and manages confirmations and reminders. This matches what many users describe: one link, no endless back-and-forth, and no scheduling conflicts.
For ongoing coaching packages with long-term clients, I set up a separate event type with a fixed cadence—weekly or bi-weekly—and built-in buffer time. The automatic reminders have significantly reduced the number of "sorry, I forgot we had a call" messages, which is especially important when we’re engaged in deep emotional or strategic work. Features like support for multiple calendars, automatic reminders, and buffer times are emphasized in Cal ID’s materials for therapists and consultants, and they fit perfectly with my communication coaching practice.
When I facilitate team workshops and internal trainings, I use a team booking page so multiple stakeholders can schedule time with me or an associate coach, rather than juggling separate links for everyone. Other reviewers have highlighted shared pages, routing, and round-robin scheduling as major time-savers for teams, and I rely on those same features for my group sessions.
For paid strategy intensives with global clients—such as one-off "communication audit" days with founders in other countries—I take advantage of Cal ID’s payment integration. Clients can select a slot and pay in a single step. Many existing reviews mention how valuable it is to accept payments from abroad and combine that with booking, and I’ve experienced the same benefit, especially when working with clients outside Europe.
The overall result is that I’ve eliminated almost all scheduling back-and-forth. My calendar is much cleaner, with fewer surprises and no accidental overlaps. I now spend more time preparing for meaningful conversations and less time playing "calendar Tetris." For someone whose work is all about making space for better dialogue, that’s a significant improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
