Calendly Reviews & Product Details

What I like most about Calendly is how simple it makes scheduling meetings. Instead of going back and forth through emails trying to find a time that works, I can just share my scheduling link and the other person can pick a convenient slot. It saves a lot of time and keeps everything organized. I also like that it integrates with my calendar and automatically blocks unavailable times, which helps avoid double bookings.

One small downside is that some useful features are only available in the paid plans, so the free version can feel a bit limited if you need more advanced scheduling options. It’s still a great tool overall, but having a few more features available in the free tier would make it even better.D Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It a very simple to use piece of software. One of the easiest to set up and run for basic calendaring and booking. Integrates with your standard calendars and video conferencing like outlook/google/exchange/zoom/teams/webex. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We don't love that we cannot double book appointments. I know they have group appointments and team scheduling but we wanted round robin staff members to look at each of their appointments and decide whether they want to double book that spot so they'd have two appointments at the same time. Many companies do this as a way to deal with rising no-show rates. We send a confirmation text for each appointment and if the lead doesn't respond then we double book the spot. In order to do this, we had to move to a different solution because it just couldn't work in Calendly. As a result we now use both Calendly and Oncehub. We also wish it integrated with our CRM (keap), though we work around it using Zapier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think that Calendly is the best scheduling tool out there as far as having all of the integrations that I need and for me to oversee my team and their schedules. Customer support is great - very friendly, helpful, and prompt. It is easy to integrate into our existing tools. We use it extremely often, on a weekly basis.

Calendly is not always user-friendly, especially for people who are not tech-savvy. I do not struggle with using the platform, but a few people on my team do because they find that what they are looking for is not always in the most intuitive spot. Sometimes, despite marking themselves as busy on their calendar, Calendly still presents those dates/times as options for booking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that I can sync my calendars to it and that it clearly shows my availability. It made it so much easier not to have to manually enter my schedule into Calendly. I also like having a link that’s easy to share with prospective and current clients so they can seamlessly set up meetings. With the paid option, I can create different links for different types of meetings, which helps me prepare appropriately for each one. It only took a few minutes to set up, and I really appreciated that. When I needed to contact customer support, they were responsive and provided solutions quickly. I didn't have to wait for days for them to respond. I don't log in frequently because I don't need to. It is always functioning the way it needs to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I haven't had great luck syncing it with my zoom account so I can just have my zoom meeting info sent to the client. It would be nice if they made that easier to use. I also don't like that I can't see how many people have signed up for a webinar type meeting, even though it appears that there is that functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how Calendly integrates directly with my Google Calendar, Zoom, and Meet. The notification features before meetings for reminders are mind-blowing. I appreciate that I don't have to worry about creating a Zoom link after getting an appointment, as this tool does it for me very smoothly. It's also great that I don't have to manually send Zoom links or do follow-ups; everything is on this tool. I'd rate the initial setup a 10/10, and I'm highly likely to recommend Calendly to others.

You can give a generous option for follow-up emails in free plans too. Just the follow-up reminder email part will be a big addition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I mostly use calendly for scheduling our business meetings. As this tool generates online link and can easily be shared through emails and whatsapp where the other member of team can click on the link and join the meeting instantly. Irrespective of asking all of them one by one this is the platform that helps in conducting professional meet up in simple and easy steps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As I use calendly almost everyday and the CRM integration that it provides is little complex to handle. Sometime the complete integration of zoom takes a lot of time and permissions which makes the process of meeting scheduling little time taking but overall it's a good tool for businesses according to my user experience.

Calendly has completely transformed how I manage meetings and scheduling. I really appreciate how effortless it is to coordinate with clients, colleagues, and partners without the endless back-and-forth of emails. The interface feels clean, intuitive, and easy to use, so setting my availability, customising meeting types, and integrating with the calendars and tools I already rely on is straightforward. The automation features like reminders, time zone detection, and buffer times save me countless hours and help me stay organised. Overall, it’s a reliable, professional, time-saving solution that makes scheduling seamless for everyone involved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Calendly is incredibly useful, some advanced features, like certain integrations, reporting, and customisation options, are only available in the paid plans. It would be great if more functionality were accessible in the free version. Additionally, occasionally syncing across multiple calendars can be a bit slow or require manual refreshes. Overall, these are minor issues compared to the time and efficiency it saves. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Calendly is most valuable for how flexible it is around scheduling logic. The ability to create different event types, each with its own rules, availability, and conditions, makes it easy to handle a wide range of use cases w/o manual coordination. The advanced settings (buffers, limits, availability controls) are useful since I have different needs and types of external meetings. They allow me to protect my time, avoid overbooking, and adapt scheduling rules to different stakeholders and contexts.

Overall, it reduced back and forth, removed friction from coordination, and made scheduling predictable and scalable, especially in environments, like mine, where calendars are already overloaded. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing major. It's a simple tool that does one thing. However, I prefer these days to use AI in my calendar. Calendly doesn’t provide much context around meetings themselves, which means it often needs to be paired with other tools for preparation or follow-up, and for rearranging everything.

What I appreciate most about Calendly is how it removes the hassle of back-and-forth emails by streamlining the scheduling process and making it automatic. It integrates smoothly with my calendar, adheres to my availability preferences, and enables others to book meetings with just a few clicks. This not only saves time and minimizes unnecessary complications but also helps keep meetings well-organized and efficient, allowing me to concentrate on more meaningful tasks rather than getting bogged down by logistics.

One aspect I dislike about Calendly is that many of the advanced features are only available with paid plans. Although the free version is helpful, its customization options, integrations, and workflow automations are somewhat restricted unless you choose to upgrade. This limitation can make Calendly feel less adaptable for more complex scheduling requirements unless you are willing to pay extra. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The main upsides of Calendly are automating scheduling to save significant time, reducing back-and-forth emails, improving professionalism with easy booking, minimizing no-shows through automated reminders, and offering robust integrations (Zoom, Google/Outlook Calendar) and advanced team features like routing and round-robin scheduling, all accessible through a user-friendly interface with a free basic plan.

Calendly's downsides include costs for advanced features, limited customization for complex rules, potential technical glitches like timezone errors or sync issues, dependency on technology, and a perception by some that it hinders personal relationship-building or gives clients too much control, while lacking robust built-in features like advanced lead routing or CRM functions, requiring reliance on integrations.
