Just okay
Simple tool. Features are similar to Calendly's free plan except TidyCal allows for more event types. Unfortunately, some essential features for me are lacking and I'll likely refund.
Pros:
- Simple, easy to use
- Inexpensive
- Not heavily branded
- All the essential integrations are there imo
Cons (Minor):
- You can't set a meeting location
- You can't delete contacts (if you do a test booking, the info will be there forever)
- You can't include links or bullets in your booking type description
Cons (Major)
- Google Calendar integration is buggy - it lets me book times when my calendar says I'm busy (my biggest concern with this tool)
- If you use the Zoom/Google Meet integration, ALL booking types will produce a web conference link which is confusing for clients if you intend to use it for in-person meetings as well (especially since you can't set a meeting location)
- No option to send reminders
- "Name" input field is all one field and not separated into "First Name" and "Last Name" (seems minor, but if you intend to integrate other tools using Zapier it's v important to have those as separate fields)
Overall, decent tool if you only need basic features and don't need much flexibility in customizing your appointment types. It's really just a slight step up from Calendly's free plan ONLY in that it lets you have more than one booking type. Otherwise, you're better off using something a little more advanced.
