In an ideal world, finding a time to meet is simple. It's not a matter of coordinating multiple schedules or playing games of email or phone tag. Unfortunately, this isn't most people's day-to-day reality, but that doesn't mean things can't improve. Having access to the correct calendar scheduling tool can make a world of difference. It can help you streamline your workflow and incorporate booking boundaries to protect your work-life balance so you don't get burned out.
The challenge is finding the right tool to help you achieve this. Calendar scheduling, after all, is a constantly evolving landscape, and there are always new additions to it. However, if you're looking for a product that's both reliable and innovative, then Cal.com is precisely what you need.
You see, the team here at Cal.com isn't just product-focused; we're also people-focused. That means we're constantly assessing and investing in new ways of making our apps work with you. It would help if you didn't have to change who you are to take advantage of our system's benefits. Instead, we're committed to providing you with a set of resources that you can customize around who you are and how you schedule.
A new solution for an old problem
One of our more recent innovations is our troubleshooting feature. It's a simple and effective visual UI that lets you see where time-based traffic jams occur. This is especially useful if you receive a message from a colleague or a friend stating that they could not book an appointment with you, even though you're positive that you had open availability at the specific time they were trying to secure.
To access the troubleshooting feature, you have to be logged into your account. Then, all you have to do is visit any of your active booking links. When this has been done, you'll notice a button labeled "Need Help." Clicking on this button will open up a display that lets you view a variety of information so that you can see where things like date overrides, booking limits, and connected calendars could impact your availability differently from what you imagined.
Solving the situation with a single glance
This troubleshooting feature helps save time because it means that you don't have to go through various settings one by one to figure out what may have gone wrong. Instead, you can click a simple button and get a bird's-eye view of the situation. This means you can remedy and solve a situation that might have taken 10 to 15 minutes in just 1 or 2. The best thing about this feature is that, just like most of Cal.com's features, it's free regardless of your account type or subscription tier.
This is just one of many tools that Cal.com is proud to be able to offer to users. Our goal as a company is to ensure that everyone, regardless of income or geolocation, has access to robust, reliable, and meaningful calendar scheduling infrastructure. However, you don't have to take our word for it mindlessly. If you're the type of person who likes to learn by doing, we invite you to sign up for a free account using the link below. Happy scheduling!
