Google Calendar recently improved appointment scheduling (including through a public page): https://workspace.google.com/resources/appointment-schedulin...

Rough reminder for Calendly (and similar) that it's a feature, not a company.

This is a cool find! Calendly still has the killer feature of being able to check multiple calendars to find scheduling blocks. Syncing accounts on multiple Google Workspace instances at a time still remains a pain.

This is pretty but not robust. I'm speaking from personal experience because I recently built a scheduling integration for a client that is deeply in the Google Workspaces for everything club yet we still had to reach for Calendly because Google simply doesn't provide a proper API.

Didn’t knew they offered this!

We’re using cal dot com currently, but the amount of bugs is just insufferable for a basic tool like that. I cannot login into my account since 3 weeks now, because their 2FA is broken.

hey @ushakov, can you send me an email to peer@cal.com, can i look into your 2FA issue?

You already have my issue:

Thanks for sharing this!

You have to have tier 2 price (12/mo) or better at Google, feature wasn't in Tier1.

We were on the lowest tier and recently forcibly moved to a higher one (from 5.20 EUR a month to now 7.80 EUR a month to 15.60 EUR a month starting 2024), and it looks like I have access to the feature.

I've updated the blog to mention that this feature is offered by Google Calendar.
