Great Calendly alternative
The product couldn't be easier to use, fits well in my technical stack (I use Gsuite) and is super reliable. Well done guys!
PROSI was using Calendly in my previous job. I found Koalendar on Google and chose it because it lets people book meetings with me easily and is super easy to configure. I find the pricing super fair as well.
CONSSetting my availibilities could be a little bit easier (apply availabilities for one day to the other days of the week for exemple).
Reasons for switching to Koalendar
The product is easier to use and cheaper

Best Calendar App Out there!!!!!

PROSThe product is super easy to use and I love the fact you can generate a QR Code for the customer to scan to make an appointment. I put it on all my business cards as well as flyers!
CONSAbsolutely nothing at all, I absolutely love it
Reason for choosing Koalendar
Integration and also the QR Code Scanner sold me from the get go!

Koalendar Review
The interface is very simple and it was really quick to set up and I loved how it seamlessly integrated with my google calendar
CONSI’ve had difficulties integrating it another google calendar outside my organization. The paid version is too expensive for for the additional features it provides. Doesn’t really provide justification to pay almost $10/monthly for the upgrade.

Simple, Inexpensive, Focused Alternative to Calendly
Outstanding. This is rock-solid software, and I'm impressed with how much it offers for free. Most of my users can get away with the free version.
PROSKoalendar doesn't nickle-and-dime features like the competition. The free tier is decadent in what it offers... for example we can build unlimited meeting types (the competition limits you to one) and sync with all of our Google Calendars, a must-have for me. The competition limits the number of calendars that can integrate, even at the highest tier! An inexpensive upgrade provides even more flexibility (e.g., custom fields, group meetings, exports, custom branding).
CONSOnce I upgraded to the paid version, I had everything I needed, so I wouldn't say I *dislike* any of the following, but from what I understand, Koalendar doen't yet offer complex integrations with platforms like Salesforce, alternate videoconferencing platforms, etc.
Reasons for switching to Koalendar
Sooooo many more features I need for the price.

MY search paid off - I found exactly what I was looking for. Simple and efficient solution.
Being a teacher and a consultant - it's imperative for me to help people get in touch with me in a simple and organized way.
PROSIntuitive, user-friendly, great UI. It does exactly what I need it to do - enables people to book slots with me easily, even those who are not tech-savvy. On the other hand, I can choose to have more than one person booking a slot with me at the same time. I was so happy to stumble upon this awesome calendar that I have subscribed to, bookmarked, and told everyone about it.
CONSIt took me forever to find it! Had I not been stubborn and determined to comb the internet for the right product - I would have never found it. My search lasted for about 10 days, in the Internet era - that's forever, many would have given up (we are used to getting a million hits in a single search). It might have been my poor description of what I needed while searching for it, but such a great tool should be on the first search page when I type calendar in the search box. Also, I expect Koalendar to make it to the list of Best Calendar Tools 2021 on many different websites. :)

Google couldn't provide what I needed, having the option to book more than one person in one time slot;

We implement systems that work
It has made it easy to implement on a team level when the team members don't need the upgraded functionality. It was also easy to implement on a team level where I can set it as an installed extension when adding new users.
PROSIt was easy to integrate into our Agency where we use the G-Suite Workplace. It allows for seamless communication between team members and clients. I highly recommend Koalender for its ease of use and ability to implement it quickly.
CONSBeing able to set more than one block of time during a day
Reason for choosing Koalendar
It was simple to implement and I didn't need the additional functions that are part of Calendly's system.
Reasons for switching to Koalendar
The ability to use with Google Meet.

The best alternative to Calendly I've found so far!
With Koalendar I have found my perfect online booking solution. It's functional, attractive, easy to use and the support is great. [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] has put together such a great piece of technology here. My hat is off to him.
PROSThe thing I love most about Koalender is it's so easy to set up and use. I had my installation set up, my availability schedule published and this all integrated into my website, ready to take bookings in just a few minutes. Add to that its very professional look and the fact that you can choose to have meetings scheduled in Google Meet, Zoom or a custom option and you just can't lose. And with the Google Chrome extension, I can instantly log in at any time and update or change my schedule in seconds. It's just so flexible.
CONSAs a small business owner, there really isn't anything I *don't* like about Koalendar. I needed an online appointment booking option that was affordable, easy to use and that I could easily integrate into my website. Koalendar does that. What's not to like?
Reason for choosing Koalendar
Koalendar is much more affordable, easier to use and simple to integrate.

HIGHLY RECOMMENED!
It was accurate and easy to use! I was able to schedule several students per audition time. I highly recommend this product! I love that I can export all of the information to an excel. Very easy and helpful!
PROSThis product enabled me to set up appointment times for auditions for our beginner band drive. I loved being able to schedule a few students to one appointment time. I also liked being able to personalize questions. This was VERY EASY to use! I like that it sends email reminders to the participants and that it has an option for people to reschedule or cancel their time. Everything was in real time! GREAT APP!
CONSI can't think of anything. This product really did exactly what I needed it to do!

It not a bad system for simple purposes like barbers, bakers, yoga coach.
PROSYou can set Google hangout or Zoom appointments if you pay for pro. Plus, give you a link to send to anyone or setup a landing page.
CONSKoalender is very stripped down from calendly and acuity scheduling. It doesn't connect to quickbook or Facebook and other programs.

Scheduling for Distant Office Hours
I use this app to schedule my office hours for distance learning. It is so much easier to have a streamlined system for appointments than simply sitting on zoom and hoping someone shows up. I have multiple classes that I am in charge of, so on this app, I am able to have students state which class and projects they need to talk about.
PROSThis is such an easy feature to use. I love how I can set my availability at the beginning of the week, but then as I make various appointments on google calendar, the app recognizes those and does not double-book me.
CONSI have not yet figured out how to set a weekly availability that repeats from week to week. So I have missed a week where I forgot to set it up until Monday and that delayed appointments. I also wish there was a way to set an appointment for multiple people. My students often come in to work on group assignments, but there is no way to include additional emails in a single appointment.
Reason for choosing Koalendar
Mostly because of the Koala in the emoji. It was cute
Vendor Response
Thank you Courtney for your review! By default, your weekdays availablity repeats every week. Or you might be using specific dates? Also you can increase how many people can book the same time slot at the bottom of your page editor.

Change my hiring process
Great experience it has truly help my hiring process
PROSThis software has changed the way I hire and interview new hires. With COVID and trying to social distancing, it has been a challenge to hire and interview because everything is virtual. With Koalendat it allows the candidates to self-scheduled themselves for the interview day.

Virtual Recording Calendar using Koalendar
Very positive for both my company and our clients.
PROSThe ability to post multiple "calendars" that allow me to set up different appointments for different clients without them seeing each other was crucial. We are embedding 3 calendars into our webpage for one client and had 3 appointments set in the first 40 hours. Initially they did not want to use us for the appointment setting but they could not figure it out themselves. They gave us a change and all of us are really happy! It has also been helpful to be able to ask questions that require mandatory answers. It has guided our speakers to see what the need to do and/pr provide before they arrive at their appointment.
CONSI wish we could set firm times for appointments, that are locked. There is only one workaround and it is really complicated...
Vendor Response
I appreciate your feedback Michael. Would really like to know more about your issue with times not being locked? What do you mean by that?
