So how do you know which meeting scheduler tool is the best fit for you? Getting to the bottom of it, let's look at the popular scheduling tools Calendly and HubSpot to help you determine which one is best for your business goals.
Both Calendly and HubSpot offer tools that simplify the process of setting up appointments, even for those who lack technical expertise. What's more, both platforms have a variety of features that cater to different scheduling needs, letting you experiment with scheduling options.
What is Calendly?
Calendly is an efficient meeting scheduling tool that lets you easily schedule and manage appointments – no matter the size or complexity of your team. With Calendly, you can streamline your workflow and reduce the time spent on scheduling, freeing up your time to focus on more important tasks.
Whether you're scheduling one-on-one meetings, group events, or even webinars, Calendly makes it easy to customise your availability and preferences. You can set up specific time slots, duration, and even buffer times between appointments to ensure you have enough time to prepare for each meeting. With its rescheduling and cancellation options, you can quickly adjust your schedule without the hassle of sending more emails or making another phone call.
What is HubSpot?
HubSpot really doesn’t need an introduction. A leader in the conversion and CRM+ space, USA’s HubSpot’s meeting scheduler is actually free.
One of the most popular selling points is the tool coming integration-ready with whatever apps your company and team(s) are already using. Plus, any meeting contact is quick-synced with the HubSpot contacts database so there’s a uniquely built-in ecosystem with HubSpot to ease running your business – from meeting scheduling to warm-lead nurture and everything else.
Prospects can even schedule meetings with more than one person from your organisation in what are called group meeting links, which we think was a very cool, power-to-consumer feature.
