Solid move a long time coming 👏 I did a usability walkthrough/review on Twitter for anyone interested: https://twitter.com/rarelyJeremy...

@pocketfreud Thanks again Jérémy!
Valentin Huang
Great, but why can I offer only 20 times to meet? If I want to share 30 minute slots to organize a 1h30 meeting, I very quickly reach the limit :/
Jeffrey Hardison
@vhuang That's a use case we hadn't heard before. I'll share it with the team as feedback.

Really helps to consolidate this functionality inside Calendly, so stoked to try it out with my different communities/groups.

@4chrisheuer Can't wait to hear what you think once you give it a whirl!

@lcfire Super simple, much easier than some of the other polling platforms. Would love to see it integrated into the Gmail Plugin :)

@thinkdeleon Thanks! A lot of credit goes to @lcfire on the listening front; she's always engaging with customers.
Rudy Arconte
Great! That's refines the competition, as I love the One-Off feature, this one is perfect!
Jeffrey Hardison
@rudy_arconte Thank you! And really appreciate you using One-Offs as well! I love One-Offs too.

I got to try out Calendly Polls during beta. It was easy to set up a poll and have people vote on times that work for them. Then with one click you can schedule the meeting on everyone's calendar. The user interface is very clean and easy to use, and unlike other products I've used in the past, it isn't full of annoying ads. The lack of ads makes me much more willing to share these polls, especially in a business context. Disclosure: my wife works for Calendly, but I really do love this product and have been a Calendly user since before she worked there!
Jeffrey Hardison
@jhaile Thank you, Jeremy, for trying out Meeting Polls!
Scott Hanford
About time! :)
Jeffrey Hardison
@scott_hanford haha, thanks, Scott!

This was much needed
Jeffrey Hardison

Congrats on the launch Jeff! Looks super useful
Jeffrey Hardison
@francis_larkin1 Appreciate it, Fran!

Overall, the feature looks very useful. But... I feel like it needs an option to automatically when complete instead of going back in and selecting it (at least for paid accounts). For example, this if we could indicate that we need votes from 7 users to automatically finalize. Then, when that number of votes is received, it can auto select and send out a time without us going back in and picking a top voted slot.

@scbarclay Love this idea and will be adding it to our enhancement list!

Hey, PH friends! 👋 I’m Jeff from Calendly, and we're excited to show you Meeting Polls, our newest way to schedule that lets a group of people quickly vote on preferred times before booking meetings. Go to https://calendly.com, sign in (or sign up if you haven't), and smash that Create button in the app. You'll see Meeting Polls as an option now! ✨ Some of you maybe use Calendly today to share *your* availability with others. But what if you want to give *everyone else* more of a say? With Meeting Polls, all of your invitees can vote on a time to meet. 🌅 The best parts? ➡️ It’s completely free. ➡️ And has zero weird ads. If you’ve ever had to schedule a call with several beta testers, a get-together with your team, or even a holiday meet-up with your fam, you know how tedious it can be to find a time that works for everyone. We hope Meeting Polls makes finding a time easier. 🙏🏽 And @chrismessina thank you for hunting us! ❤️ This is a public beta, so please try it out and let us know what you think! Your thoughts will inform what we build next.
Jeffrey Hardison
@lisadziuba Thank you!

Free options is not completely free, the product looks good
Jeffrey Hardison
@berthakgokong We're glad you like the look of the product. From our perspective, we've deliberately made Meeting Polls free for anyone to use. Do you think it's missing something in terms of being free?
