    Easy to Schedule

    Date: Jul 27 2022
    Summary

    Overall, I am grateful for Google Calendar and how easy it makes all of my work scheduling and how easy it integrates with other platforms and softwares.

    Positive

    Interview, meeting and time block scheduling is so easy to do. The best thing about Google calendar is how it is integrates with so many platforms. I love being able to use Calendly, Greenhouse, Google Meet, etc. and how easy it is use the Google calendar on these platforms.

    Negative

    The one con that I can think of is how slow my Google Calendar app on my phone syncs. There are many times a meeting is added or cancelled on my calendar that shows up on my computer, but not on my phone. I can't rely on my app 24/7.

    Very complete system to have a correct administration of tasks and events.

    Date: Nov 29 2022
    Summary

    Google Calendar has been an optimal platform to improve the planning process of my entire real estate services company, within our real estate company we constantly hold events to meet with our clients and be able to offer greater discounts on our properties, thanks to this Google Calendar platform We have been able to correctly consolidate the planning of our events, we have been able to add all the Contact data of the participants, in addition, we can send constant reminders throughout a day or during specific dates, we can configure this system to send immediate reminders from time to time. Since I started using this platform, the process of adapting to each of the functions to create a new event or create a task for 10 specific ones was quite simple, I quickly beat all the songs that this platform offered me, also, I loved it the experience I had from my mobile phone and it is also the version for computers, since I use the web version and be able to manage all kinds of events through that pressure, the web application is very easy to use, I can create tasks, create events, view the holidays that are in my country and many other things, really this Google Calendar application has made me feel very comfortable since I started using it.

    Positive

    Google Calendar is a service that began to be present in this company mainly because it was very important for us to have an organization for each of our plans, for different dates of the month. This platform emerged as the main solution to organize it correctly within the planning. of activities, meetings or events for specific dates. One of the first things I liked about it anyway is how affordable its plans are, as it charges very little money for the basic plan for each user per month, compared to other platforms that charge you more than double what Google charges. Calendar for a monthly subscription. The main reason why Kat takes note of these prices is because I was very impressed that we could have an administration of each of the events for specific dates without having to pay so much money, access to Google Calendar was quite accessible with respect to the prices that they offered us, I really loved the number of affordable plans that this platform offered me, it is very cheap compared to platforms like Calendly.

    The main feature that I liked in relation to the functions of this platform is that it offered me immediate synchronization with all the schedules that were carried out in my company's calendar, that means that all the schedules are synchronized in real time, I can view the calendar and see all the schedules for events, meetings or activities that involve our entire company for specific dates, the business plan offered me Google Calendar allows me to have a real-time view of all the schedules of my company, for For example, if a colleague has registered a new schedule for five days from now, I can view that schedule immediately from the Google Calendar application on my mobile phone, this helps me a lot since I can register any type of event or schedule for a date and all my employees will be aware of that event and the date and time to be held, in this way they can attend immediately. Another of the features that I liked about this platform is the excellent notification and alert system that it has, since every time I have created a schedule for a specific date within Google Calendar for companies, the notification and a half of the application of the mobile phone of each one of my employees, in addition, they also receive a notification in their emails, which helps each one to be informed about all the planning that is done within this company calendar. Another feature that I liked about this platform is its access within the web version within a browser, since I can access my calendar using a browser, this is impressive since Google Calendar is not only available for mobile devices, but also that you can also manage and plan new events or meetings for specific dates using my computer, in addition, Google Calendar has an excellent synchronization system between devices, therefore, all the grades that you make from the computer will be fully displayed from my version for mobile devices.

    Negative

    One of the main negative features of this platform is that it does not have variety when it comes to choosing some colors for the tasks or events that you add for a specific date, there is currently a function to choose the density and set of colors for each event that you register within the calendar, however, the only two options available are the modern style and the classic style, since it adds a white text to Black text to the planning that you make, however, you cannot add text with a color of free choice, you cannot choose the color you want for this rating you are doing. The second negative thing that this platform has is that it does not have an attendance confirmation system for each of the events that was entered into my calendar, it is very easy to avoid events and add descriptions and reminders for the people who will participate in this event However, currently there is no system for these participants to confirm their attendance for the event, this function is relatively necessary since it would help to avoid no-shows at our events, in addition, it would help us to send reminders only to people who have confirmed their support for our event.

    The third negative thing about this platform is that you cannot share an event that you have registered within your calendar, to an external platform, for example, you cannot share an event plan to a communication channel like WhatsApp or Telegram, it would be excellent to be able to use the Google Calendar mobile app and share all these events immediately with my messaging apps, currently this feature is available, as I can only create events and add the participants to send reminders and invitations, but I can't send the creation of that event through messaging applications.

    Google Calendar - Review

    Date: Jun 08 2020
    Summary

    Google Calendar is a very good product that helps professionals to plan and organize a day. The integration of google calendars with Zoom, Flock, and Slack helps in organizing meetings better.

    (+) Easy to use, helpful in setting meetings, and attending them.
    (+) Integration with communication applications like flock, slack, zoom, etc.
    (+) Great UI and UX.
    (+) Planning a day, setting convenient reminders for meetings.

    Negative

    (-) Drag and drop feature for rescheduling meetings is not in place.
    (-) Time zone conflicts should be taken care of.
    (-) Customization of calendar should be added.
    (-) Sometimes reminders fail to give alerts.

    Good all around platform for business and personal calendars

    Date: Jun 26 2020
    Summary

    I've been very happy with Google Calendar, more in my personal life than business. Having a "Family Calendar" that all the family members can use/see helps to keep everyone on the same page and helps us avoid important events.

    Positive

    I like that Google Calendar is tightly integrated with the google mail, chromeOS and android platforms. The ability to view multiple calendars at the same time helps keep my personal and business schedules well sorted out. The ability to share/delegate calendars is helpful for an assistant or other team member. Within our organization it helps with organizing/scheduling meetings. I like the ability to configure reminders as "Notifications" and "Emails".

    Negative

    With Google Apps for business the calendar function automatically adds a google handouts link which causes confusion for clients/potential clients if I don't go in and turn off the hangouts.

    Simple calendar program

    Date: Mar 31 2020

    Easy to use
    Compatible among many platforms
    Easy to sync events across devices
    Easy to create events
