Scheduling meetings, sending invites, managing multiple calendars, and syncing across devices is straightforward and reliable. The ability to integrate with tools like Gmail, Google Meet, and third-party applications saves time and reduces administrative overhead. I also appreciate the clean interface, real-time synchronization, and the ease of sharing calendars with teams and clients. > > **Cons**: One limitation is that some advanced scheduling and resource management features are less comprehensive than those offered by certain enterprise-focused calendar platforms. Managing complex recurring events can occasionally be cumbersome, and customization options for notifications and calendar views could be more flexible. Additionally, when working across multiple organizations, permission management can sometimes become confusing. > > My overall experience with Google Calendar has been very positive. I've used it extensively for project coordination, team meetings, client appointments, and personal scheduling. The platform is stable, easy to use, and accessible from virtually any device. From an IT perspective, deployment and user adoption are simple because most people are already familiar with Google's ecosystem. While there are areas that could be enhanced for enterprise users, Google Calendar delivers an excellent balance of functionality, usability, and reliability for both individual and professional use. ----- ### "A Utilitarian Tool For Work Organisation" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *18 August 2026* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love the colour coding and how easy it is to organise meetings with people internally and externally. The google meet integration makes it super easy to set up and attend meetings too, reminders come whenever you schedule them as well which helps with organising your day. Really easy to share calendars with others too and see the layout of your day. > > **Cons**: I find it hard to see a monthly layout that gives me a loner term view. Anything longer than a week starts to look clunky as well (in my opinion). Not essential but the font and layout is largely unchangeable (may be a positive for some). Also there's no barrier to random salespeople sending invites which can mess up your day if you don't remember who put what in your calendar. > > Yeah generally positive, for all the things I need it to do it's spot on. Makes meeting invites and scheduling time super easy (even if some of the longer term calendar views aren't so user-friendly) ----- ### "The best free calendar tooling" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *15 August 2026* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Google Calendar has become the de-facto calendar tool for most businesses and probably individuals, probably down to it's ease of use, great UI and it's integrations with Google Meet/Gemini. > > **Cons**: I am concerned about its privacy given the recent cyber-attacks utilising google calendar and scammers 'placing' events onto people calendars through gmail. > > Overall it is a good tool, and is free for most people. You can't go wrong with it and it integrates nicely with GMail. ----- ### "Easy to share easy to use" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *16 March 2026* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Very easy to use and allows you to see all your calendars in one place. Automatically adding appointments/meetings from you calendar (joint or personal) making it a very convenient tool especially across groups in both business and personal settings. > > **Cons**: Limited colours for tagging appointment types is my biggest bug bear because the last thing you want it get confused about what is happening when. > > Overall, it's great. It works perfectly showing me my work appointments alongside my personal commitments. and being able to shift between a 7 day view right back to a daily agenda is extremely helpful. ----- ### "My favourite calendar app" — 5.0/5 > **Abby** | *11 May 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I like about Google Calendar is how intuitive and easy it is to use. The interface feels fresh, modern and is very visually appealing, which makes organising schedules much less overwhelming. I also like the ability to use different colours for calendars and events, making it simple to separate work, personal life and other commitments at a glance. Another big advantage is that it’s free to use, while still offering powerful features that feel premium and the paid options are good and reasonably priced too if you need more advanced tools through Google Workspace. Shared calendars are especially useful for coordinating with the team and, on a personal note, for syncing with my partner. The syncing and integration across other systems like Gmail, HubSpot, Zoom etc. and devices work really smoothly. Overall, it feels reliable, user-friendly, and well-connected with other apps and platforms. > > **Cons**: What I liked least about Google Calendar was honestly very little - I haven't had any major issues with it. Overall, think its a great, easy to use software and works well for what I needed. ----- Page: 1 / 174\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/213340/google-calendar?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/213340/google-calendar) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | ----- ## Structured Data
