Calendly = more work
Makes the person you invite break out of their workflow by switching tabs back and forth between their calendar and your scheduling window.
“The calendar visualization, especially across multiple calendars, is far superior to Calendly, and the user experience has been fantastic. I have completely stopped using other services."
Matt McBride
Head of Finance, Wonderschool
“Much, much, much prefer Boomerang - embeds your calendar right in the email, lots of ways to share availability, and less of the "you do the work" feel of Calendly, but just as efficient."
Gaurav Singal
MD, Harvard Medical School
“I'm an evangelist for Bookable Schedule. Life-changing and much more respectful to the other person, which was my main issue with the Calendly approach.”
