Google Calendar

Pros

i like how I can customize each reminder and download calendar arrangements to integrate into my Google Calendar

Cons

Setting reminders on the Calendar is quite complicated and I don't get it most times, I end up setting it wrongly

Pros

What I like most about Google Calendar is its incorporation into the Google Workspace and the user interface. In a matter of seconds, I can go from scheduling a meeting on the calendar in Gmail or quickly getting a reminder about a meeting working with other production applications.

Cons

I don't have many negative comments about Google Calendar, but if I had to pinpoint anything, it would be network stability. Every so often, the workspace experiences lagging or connectivity issues, which impacts your ability to view Google Calendar.

Pros

Fast & easy to access, with colours that are easy on the eyes, and a no-frills experience of setting up

Cons

An outdated and cumbersome calendar configurator, aging architecture, missing core features, horrible troubleshooting.

Reasons for Choosing Google Calendar

Reasons for Switching to Google Calendar

Pros

I really liked the event management, the ability to create multiple calendars that allows me to divide private life and work.

Cons

I have always disliked less the fact that it does not allow you to create specific categories so that you can divide the various events within the calendar

Pros

Google Calendar makes it quick and easy to schedule meetings, send invitations, and add people to the meeting. It works seamlessly with my note-taking app and other integrations, saving me time and stress.

Cons

I wish it integrated with the iPhone more seamlessly.It sometimes seems like they're not compatible. I frequently have to log in to the calendar on my phone, which is frustrating and time-consuming.

Pros

Ease of integration with other apps that I use, including my practice management software and my children's school schedule. Easy to invite people to events and to share calendars.
Simple to add and edit (move, delete etc) events.

Cons

Display options could be better, for example, I would like to see more options for ways to see the diary, such as a weekly agenda view; and more colours. The calendar displays is pretty boring.

Pros

Can set up various types or calendars like personal and business. Can sync it with other calendar software so it automatically shows up when you have an event. Can automatically add people to their calendar when you have an event in your calendar. Can make ir easy to have people add an event to their calendar when you have an event.

Cons

Syncing takes practice to make it work like with zoom,, apps, etc

Pros

Easy to use, great for staying organized

Cons

I have no cons to report about google calendar

Pros

Seamless scheduling, sync, sharing and powerful API

Cons

Interface can be cluttered, and event management can get rigid

Pros

Google Calendar is easy to use, and I especially like the ability to share my calendar both personally and professionally with different levels of authority, including just viewing and able to make changes.

Cons

Google Calendar doesn't always get along well with Apple Calendar and that's a problem sometimes.

Pros

Everything is instantly integrated, updated, and synced to take into account my availability, scheduling preferences, and time zone. When working with international clients I never have scheduling misunderstandings, something that happened to me frequently before switching to Google Calendar.

Cons

I wish that the bookable appointment scheduler could automatically connect with Zoom easily to have the links provided to those who book upon scheduling.

Reasons for Switching to Google Calendar

Pros

It's a perfect tool to organise your time-table. It helps me have everything organised as well as get notifications for everything I shouldn't forget. Besides, it's really simple to use

Cons

The booking tool is not easy to sync with other softwares.

Pros

Simple to understand and navigate, simple to teach to new users

Cons

I wish Apple reminders could sync with Google Calendar. Or, Google Tasks were an app Siri could manage with voice commands as the Apple Reminders is. I use reminders all the time and it'd be great if for work (where I use Google Workspace) I could use voice to text for Tasks.

Pros

Google calendar is really user friendly and easy to use. I like that you can just click on the calendar at the date/time you want to add something and it opens up all the options to add details, add a reminder, invite guests, etc. For our office it's great because we can all see whatever we need to from wherever we have connection. As long as our phone has the google calendar app, we can see the full calendar from wherever we are, which makes it very easy to get information even when we're away from our computer.

Another great part is the integration with google meet, making it really easy to schedule meetings with team members. It's great to just add something to the calendar and have it automatically give the option to join the meeting through google meet - less work to set up a separate virtual meeting space, which is a big time saver.

Cons

The only thing I don't like about the calendar is the formatting changes it makes when you make edits from a mobile device. When I open an item on my calendar through my phone, if I have to make an edit to the description it changes the current formatting, making it much harder to read when returning to the desktop version. I'm not sure if this is something that is caused by the type of phone/OS I'm using, or if it's part of the calendar settings, but it can be annoying to have to fix formatting when I return to my computer.

Pros

I like the fact that you can easily integrate Google Calendar with many other applications. For example, I integrated Google Calendar with my Zoom account and now it creates events in the calendar whenever I create a Zoom meeting.
I also like the ease of use. It's very easy to create a task or event.
I also like the fact that I can sync the desktop application to the app on my phone. This is VERY help.

Cons

There are a few features on the mobile app that I wish was on the desktop application. For example, when I am creating an event and want to add a new notification, on the mobile app I see the option to automatically add a notification 1 day before the event. I have to add it manually on the desktop application. But for the most part, there is very little that I don't like about Google Calendar.

Pros

Ease of use, and ability to link calendar to many other platforms for work, including Noterro for business, Google email for flights/appointments etc.
I love the search option, when it came time to navigate my past appointments I could simply search in the type or location and it was able to pull up all of them from the first time I started using calendar.

Cons

Too few colours for tasks/appointments. I use it so frequently and would love to see more colour options available as it helps with remembering exactly what's been booked that day.

Pros

It can be used for both work and home, and the fact that the two calendars can be synced to avoid schedule conflicts is fantastic. Having reminders for meetings and appointments is a lifesaver.

Cons

Sometimes the reminders can be overwhelming when you have them set for several calendars and the sync does not recognize the same appointment on multiple calendars, so you may get doubles of one appointment

Pros

Google Calendar has the cleanest user interface which makes it easy to add schedules for tasks and events. Adding new events to my calendar is so easy and effortless. It offers very advanced security features which help ensure that all the personal data is safeguarded and kept safe.

Cons

Google Calendar has always hit the target for me and I have not seen a thing to complain about.

Pros

There are so many pros when it comes to Google Calendar.
1. Its FREE
2. Allows multiple profiles
3. Allows real time scheduling
4. It sends reminders for stuff you have coming up
5. Makes it so I'm not over booking myself and losing customers

Cons

I don't think I have anything bad to say about google calalendars because honestly it has saved my life and my business. No more losing out because I over booked myself.

Pros

I love the fact that Google Calendar keeps me on track every day with the ability to adjust on the fly. Having visibility of what my lead intake coordinator has set for me with consistent reminders leads has led to a stress-free lifestyle. The ability to video chat with "Google Meets" is a feature that should not be missed for a consultant! Integrated with the ability to include locations I know exactly when and where I should be from a few clicks.

Cons

It would be nice to give visibility to my clients for when my open slots are available to help them choose the best time to meet. It sounds like Google Calendar has this option though, so really it's on us! I don't dislike anything!

Pros

I love Google Calendar. I love the syncability it has. I can add all my important calendars for work, business, events, home, family, personal, etc. I can color code and see everything in a month’s glance. I love that it has an app as well. Makes it so much easier to use on my phone and tablet. All of my clients usually use Google Calendars as well so it makes it easy for us to sync calendars and dates. You can add links for Zoom, Skype, and other platforms for meetings, classes and more. Add addresses for specific places so you can tap and get directions to where you’re going.

Cons

I wish there were a few more color options for an even more customized calendar but other than that I love it.

Pros

It is very easy to import events, and to create repeats and exceptions.

Cons

I think that sometimes it’s a bit hard to navigate who created certain events in a shared calendar.

Pros

I can access to my calendar anywhere and my mobile and laptop is sincronized

Cons

Lack of groups, I would like to have grups which I can set meetings in the calendar, like work, school or book club.

Pros

Great product for simply organizing and planning my day. Sharing deadlines and plans with others makes it easy to keep everyone on task and on time. Love the sharing option to keep everyone informed and productive. Wonderful product for work and personal life.

Cons

I have been using Google Calendar for years but in the beginning, it took a bit of time and effort to learn how to use all the features in the app. As with all new things, there is a small learning curve, but it was well worth it.
