Doodle Reviews

It shows people's schedule in real time of when to schedule a meeting

Syncing features usually do not work because many colleagues are outside of your organization

Doodle is a great platform where I setup my meetings with the students. I really like and appreciate the simple but robust platform it provides to schedule and pole meetings. The feature to sync my work calendar (Outlook) is also really helpful.

The advertisement to the side of doodle poll or calendar is not very professional. I understand and can expect these advert for the free version.
One more thing, the sync feature of doodle with my Outlook calendar is slighliy weird. I also use doodle to setup a meeting call with my tutees via sharing my calendar. The tutees can find the suitable slot and book a time with me for a tutoring meeting. This is great as far. However if I make any changes to my work calendar, or some students cancel their meeting request, this does not turely synchronise with the doodle calendar.
So I believe the interfacing between doodle and outlook calendar needs to be improved.

Doodle is a great platform for companies that have meetings with outside shareholders. Scheduling meetings to fit into everyone’s schedule is hard, and doodle eliminates the need for the back and forth conversation to pick a date and time that works for most.

It is easy to set up a poll, input meeting times that are available, and have desired attendees vote. This makes for a faster and more productive way to host meetings.

I currently do not have any negatively to say about Doodle. For the uses we use, the platform works very efficiently.

I use it to organize meetings with clients or coworkers. I can schedule them in advance to have an organized agenda and when the day comes, Doodle notifies me with notifications which meetings are for that day and the time of each one. I have found it to be a useful tool in which I can trust my entire meeting agenda without forgetting any and have a good conversation without interruptions

I use the basic tools and they have always worked correctly for me without any failures or system crashes

This software is one of the most efficient tools to organize your schedules and coordinate tasks with your colleagues/team members. The User Interface of this application is simple and straightforward, which means it is easy to use for beginners as well. It has all the essential features to plan out your day. Doodle is most helpful in a work environment when you need to coordinate tasks and meeting with others. My team used to spend a lot of times running around to save the time when everyone is available. With Doodle, group scheduling options allows us to save time, make shifts and adjustment without breaking a sweat.

Sometimes there is a glitch, which delays to show the schedule I updated. Also it would be extra helpful if the software has more integration/collaboration with other work-related software.

it is great for scheduling office meetings

it is one of the more expensive options on the market

Ease of use and free option for occasional use to schedule events with multiple stakeholders when we want to choose the day/ with the highest likely attendance.

Sometimes I forget to click a button and then don’t realize that my information wasn’t recorded .

I love the ease of use. So intuitive and makes it easy to find a good date for everyone in the team.

The name. It needs to be updated, to compete with other softwares.

Easy to coordinate meetings with team members or groups of people.

Can be difficult for those not familiar with platform to onboard at first.

I love doodle. It helped with scheduling and communication across multiple people at one time. It saves time and emailing, which allows me to contribute time to other work duties. I like how I can give many options for scheduling and allow users to make multiple votes. Using this has improved meeting attendance as many users who select their availability are more likely to attend.

I wish some of the features were not paid only such as Zoom meeting option. I will like to be able to include the Zoom link within the Doodle poll.

Doodle makes scheduling meetings with large groups and 1:1 appointments easy. It was the first group scheduling software I ever used and is still very popular and familiar with most folks.

Google calendar has really stepped up its game and enabled booking features that make it easy to set up group meetings and bookings. So for those who already use Google suite, it negates the need for using yet another 3rd party app like Doodle.
Also while Doodle is great, sometimes it's better to use when2meet, which allows you to enter your availability by highlighting a calendar, thus negating the need to select specific blocks of times and casting a wider net of availability.
Lastly, Doodle changed some of its features (eg limited the number of people who can sign up for a slot) or moved them to a paid plan that really restricted the range of its functions.

-User friendly
- has opportunity for creativity
- helps organization skills

I have no cons about doodle. You cant go wrong with Doodle.

It is very easy to use, you can manage all your agenda in a single way and there is no complicated tasks

At this point, no dislikes or some problems with platform, so far so good

It's interface is very simple and straight-forward.

Recently they put some feature behind a paywall, such as editing options in a doodle.

What i like most about Doodle is that mobile access, wich deploys very well and is very stable

I think there's a bit much advertising with this tool

User friendly and very convenient and time friendly

I do not have an y cons. >It was a great platform.

As the leader of a non-profit organization, what I appreciate most about Doodle is its ability to streamline our scheduling process. With a diverse team of volunteers and stakeholders often spread across different locations and time zones, coordinating meetings used to be a challenge. Doodle has made it significantly easier to find suitable time slots for everyone, reducing the back-and-forth communication. This efficiency means we can spend more time focusing on our mission and less on administrative tasks

One aspect of Doodle that I found less favorable is its user interface when integrating with multiple calendars. Sometimes, it can be a bit unintuitive, and our less tech-savvy members occasionally struggle with it. Additionally, while Doodle offers many advanced features in its premium version, as a non-profit organization, we're always conscious of costs, and it would be great if some of those features were available in the free version to better support our cause.

The ability to obtain the availability of a group of people for meetings.

No real cons, but I don't use Doodle for anything else other than obtaining availability.

It’s a really simple software that enables our team to arrange group meetings/events by finding the perfect day and time that suits all. I like how you can have multiple options and it’s easy to navigate.

Too many ads surrounding it making it look crowed and often annoying. It shrinks the actual functionality part of the template forms.

Doodle has helped me a lot when it comes to scheduling group meetings and events. Its simplicity and intuitive interface make it very easy to use. The ability to create polls and have participants vote on their preferred meeting times saves a lot of email back and forth. In addition, Doodle offers integration with the most popular calendar applications, which helps keep everyone on the same page.

A drawback is that some advanced features, like tracking responses to multiple options, are only available in paid plans

Doodle's free version offers essential tools for checking availability across teams, provides great value for my organization.

I have no cons with Doodle so far, excellent software.

Easy to use and works with a single link. I'm guessing that the one booking gets an email which is great.

Maybe the number of emails after every booking. Finding my way around the "weekly/montly schedule" was a little difficult as well. An easier way of seeing the time slots and which ones were available (after it had been sent out) could be improved.

-very easy to set up.
-very easy to use.

-there can be lots of ads on the page so it is a little bit confusing the first times you use it.

Easy to find a time that suits everyone, very helpful for bigger groups

Free features are a bit limited unfortunately
