I do not think this is great for businesses unfortunately.
Unfortunately not for me. I can see this is a very useful product for some situations, however it is too labour-intensive for us. We have just two people who need to schedule their days through this right now and if we were to change anything in our booking types, it cannot be automatically applied across the board, and we would need to change each booking individually. We would then need to go into the second person's booking to do it all again. I think this is a huge oversight and Tidycal really needs to consider how much of an impact this would have on businesses and how it impacts on their reviews. I think that it is really important for people to clearly understand that this product does seem to be only suitable for individuals right now, and does not seem suitable for businesses. I think for an individual who was offering maybe one or two services, this is perfect, but for anybody else I unfortunately cannot see how it is an efficient program that will not impact heavily on your productivity. I may not understand the product properly, but I have read all the reviews and questions and I think I have a good grasp on it. I am unfortunately going to ask for a refund. I cannot see anywhere that these things are going to be addressed quickly, so I have no choice. I think the program and the responses from the developers are great and this is certainly a niche product that could be used by some, but it is poorly integrated for team use as far as I can see.

May 9, 2024Hey, EthicalCaringGroup!
Thanks for your review. We've talked a lot about in other Reviews and the Q&A that TidyCal is specifically made for individuals -- solopreneurs, marketers, executives, leaders, and other one-person businesses.
Making TidyCal multi-user, multi-brand, round robin, or team would be complex and expensive. We couldn't offer a reasonable Lifetime deal at this price. That's why team-based calendar tools start at $16+ per USER per MONTH. Ouch. Super expensive. We want to be affordable and simple for the individual segment of the market.
For the solopreneurs and individuals out there (contractors, consultants, executives, individuals), we'll keep focusing on giving them the best product possible. Thanks for being clear here that TidyCal isn't made for most teams. We agree, and have no plans of targeting that demographic.
Thanks for giving TidyCal a try!
