Meeting- und Terminplanungssoftware.
4.7/5 (791 Bewertungen)Calendly ist eine Planungssoftware für die Organisation von Meetings und Terminen zwischen Einzelpersonen und ihren Kollegen sowie zwischen Unternehmen und ihren Klienten oder Kunden.
Mit Calendly können Nutzer ihre Verfügbarkeitsvorlieben festlegen und anschließend ihren eigenen persönlichen Einladungslink versenden, um Meetings oder Termine zu vereinbaren. Dem eingeladenen Teilnehmer wird eine Auswahl verfügbarerer, auf der Verfügbarkeit des Nutzers basierender Zeiten und Daten angezeigt, von denen er wählen kann. Die von Calendly vorgeschlagenen Längen der Meetings liegen normalerweise zwischen 15, 30 und 60 Minuten, die Nutzer haben jedoch die Möglichkeit, eine unbegrenzte Anzahl verschiedener Ereignistypen zu erstellen, die ihren Anforderungen entsprechen, die Pufferzeit zwischen den Terminen und eine minimale Mitteilungsfrist für die Planung von Meetings festzulegen, um Buchungen in letzter Minute zu verhindern.
Calendly ermöglicht es Nutzern, verschiedene Einladungstypen einzurichten und zu versenden, sodass die eingeladenen Personen die Möglichkeit bekommen, das Format des Meetings, das Teammitglied, mit dem sie sprechen möchten, oder beides auszuwählen. Meetings können jedem Mitarbeiter auch automatisch zugewiesen werden, wenn der eingeladene Teilnehmer seinen Termin auswählt. Nachdem die eingeladenen Personen geantwortet haben, können sie von der Ereignisbestätigungsseite zur Website des Nutzers oder einer benutzerdefinierten Danksagungsseite weitergeleitet werden.
Calendly versendet benutzerdefinierte automatische Bestätigungs-E-Mails und Ereigniserinnerungen an die eingeladenen Personen und benachrichtigt alle Besprechungsteilnehmer per E-Mail, wenn ein Teilnehmer einen Termin verschiebt. Durch die Integration mit Google- und Office-365-Kalendern können die Kalender der Nutzer automatisch aktualisiert werden. Bevor Ereignisse hinzugefügt werden, muss mit Calendly nach Buchungskonflikten gesucht werden.
Vorteile
TheThe best thing about Calendly is the ability to set schedules for specific event types! You can set blackout dates, available times, control meeting lengths, automatically add buffer time, limit the number of events scheduled for a single day, and more. This is perfect for setting up live events or meetings on an ongoing basis, but giving yourself enough heads up and flexibility to be in control. You basically give prospective customer the freedom to choose a date and time--but ensure that it fits in your schedule, too. Use this to schedule live demos with clients, training events, or even webinars. It's a great tool, especially for small sales teams that need a controlled flow of sales calls/demos.
Nachteile
Calendly is restrictive in analytics; for instance, I can't easily see how many people clicked to schedule an event, but didn't follow through. It's also difficult from a user interface standpoint. I find myself looking for settings and menus that are hidden within the slick, clean interface. On the scheduling side, it's pretty easy for clients to schedule events, but you can't customize the date picker--and that's really unfortunate, because I'd like to use it in more places but can't customize the look and feel or functionality.
Almost too numerous to list. I even use it to schedule meetings with producers about projects, not just my counseling clients. Custom links, buffering and limit to events per day. Its awesome!
Vorteile
Is it so easy for my occasional clients to set up video conference calls or one-on-one counseling calls, or group meetings with my company and our various producers spread between Tx and Ca.
One link, and it sends the appointment to my email AND Google calendar, and has a feature that allows the client to reschedule if needed. Another huge plus is the buffering. I can allow for meetings and calls that run extra long. This is very flexible and I can change it on a daily basis.
Set up is fast and easy, you can have multiple events that can be scheduled.
And that's the free account. If you upgrade, you can integrate with many apps and even book paid appointments through the system (Stripe only, tho).
Cloud based, so you don't have to download (yet another) android app. That's a big plus for me, as I do 95% of my work in a browser on a PC.
I have yet to need to contact their customer support, so I gave then 5 stars there, as I find it easy to use.
Cost to use is quite low, compared to other scheduling websites.
Nachteile
One big issue I have is, I use Opera as my main browser and it dislikes Google. So to use Calendy you need to use Chrome or Firefox to set things up and access all the features.
This is more of a Google issue, not Calendy.
In the paid appointment extra, they only take "Stripe" - if they ever add Square then it'll be well rounded out.
Payment for the level you want is on an annual basis, not month-to-month, so I consider that a negative.
We've been using Calendly for a little over 6 months at my company. This app makes finding times to meet with colleagues an absolute breeze. Working at a remote company with 90+ people, and specifically on a team of about 20, searching for available time slots in Google Calendar can be VERY time-consuming and challenging. With Calendly you are instantly shown the times available for the person you'd like to meet with. You can choose a time, and instantly add it to your Google Calendar. It sends them a reminder to their calendar as well.
Vorteile
Scheduling meetings is easy, and I don't ever have to rely on coordinating crazy google calendars with people. If you are setting it up for yourself to have people schedule meetings with you, it's easy to block out times that you are available or unavailable. It's also really great if you work with teams across different time zones as it takes your timezone into account when scheduling times with person/or vice versa, overall it's just one less thing to worry about.
Another super handy feature is the ability to request certain information from the person booking time with you. This makes it easy to request an agenda about the meeting or to perhaps ask a series of questions for recurring meetings with people.
Nachteile
The only problem I've had is mostly user error. As the one requesting a meeting, I wish there was an easier way to add calendar events to your calendar. I have on a few occasions forgot to add the scheduled time to my calendar (the option is there, I've just missed it a few times) would be awesome if it was automagically added some way to your Google Cal. :)
I love the simple UI and UX of this Software.
Vorteile
I really love how flexible Calendly has to offer, if you need a one-on-one Schedule, Calendly can give you that.
If you have a Team and you need them to schedule a meeting with your Prospects, Calendly has your Team.
If you need one member of your Team to schedule a separate meeting with your other member, Calendly will help you do that.
The integrations are also great, you can integrate Calendly with other meeting software like Zoom for a discovery call, GoToMeeting for Webinars, or even monetize discovery calls with their integration for PayPal or Stripe. Calendly will have those integrated easily.
I cannot stress enough how Calendly can customize your experience if you love certain Branding to be removed or to add, Calendly can do it for you.
There's so much to say but one thing stood out for me, the Timezone is already integrated with the Timezone of your Prospects, meaning, no more late, no-show meetings.
Nachteile
As much as I love Calendly, there are certain features that I don't like, well, every Software isn't perfect and we do have different take and opinion.
The Availability function to your Calendar, this is for me is confusing, you need to highlight first the day you want to be available until the date of your availability. I just wish Calendly can have a feature where you can just input a certain Date up until your Availability, more like a drop-down menu.
But that's just me, I still love how easy to use this software.
Each person in our company has a unique calendly link included under their email signature and available to share with clients as the need for a meeting arises. We save TONS of time using calendly and no longer waste time checking calendars, adjusting time zones, emailing back and forth, receiving responses after the proposed dates have passed, worrying we might double book, asking for phone numbers or addresses, etc. When a client schedules through calendly, the event apprears in Gmail with the location included and links to cancel or reschedule if needed. Everything we need "magically appears" without us having to lift a finger. Great asset to our work life and productivity!
Vorteile
I can share my calendly link with clients and contractors and they can easily schedule a meeting on my calendar without me having to be involved. It is user friendly for them and seamless for me. It requires no attention or maintenance on my part. You can connect calendly to your current calendar so that your availability automatically syncs as you make changes to your day. And this platform is highly workable for all of my needs without having to use a paid version! There are tons of customizations you can set, such as a buffer time to allow for travel between meetings, automatically blocking off or allowing specific times for each day of the week, disallowing bookings within __ hours, etc.
Nachteile
The ability to figure how exactly where and how to adjust all of the setup preferences is a little quirky. Some of the settings are "hidden" as sub-sections under other preference pages. I took a good bit of time setting and navigating through all of the customization options, but now that those are set, I don't have to think about or touch anything to keep Calendly working for me. With the free version, you can only have 1 meeting time for clients to choose from (for example, using my link, clients only have the option to schedule a 45 minute meeting with me). This is actually preferable to me though, as I don't want my clients to have to make more choices or spend more time in Calendly than needed. Using the free version keeps things simple.

If you schedule live events with clients on a regular basis, Calendly provides a clean interface to easily show others your available time slots and allow them to schedule an event. This has proved invaluable for our sales team to do live demos with prospects and not get too many scheduled at once. It also has allowed us to not schedule demos back to back without buffer time in between. That's huge!
