Ardexus CRM vs. Calendly

It is well-suited for mid-sized companies. And the pricing is relatively better. I don't think it will work well well with companies handling bleeding-edge tech. But if u are looking for a typical CRM which does what it's supposed to do, then go for it. And it works well with your ERP software too.

It's well suited for music students' lessons. It's well suited for online coaching, primarily through places like Zoom and more. It helps simplify things for your clients, lets you program your schedule, and allows it all to go automatically! If you are working with a senior population, it may be a little tricky for them to sign up and then really hard for them to cancel lessons. There isn't a way to go to the site and cancel. You have to pull up the confirmed email and cancel from there, but people can lose emails.

• Sales. Easy for people to book so less back and forth.
• Managed access. Easy for me to offer people the "right kind" of slot - I have like 5 hidden event-types I share only with certain people so they can access different availability.
• Collaborative events! Some of us frequently meet in pairs or groups, e.g., one of our regional leaders and I have a shared link we can send out to people to find a time that works for all of us. LOVE this.

• UI is very basic
• NO themes options in web mode
• NO Call option online

• If you have more than one company, you cannot use one account. This is the most difficult hurdle to me but still one I am willing to jump over considering all the benefits of Calendly.
• Adding custom color ability on event types. Example: One of my companies doesn't use any of the color choices. I would like to be able to color code those to my brand.
• Brand/Asset kit would be a wonderful addition. In profile settings, have a place to upload brand logo, assets, and brand color codes.

For all reasons like workflows, UI, and the way Calendly keeps all of us engaged through the Collective forum. It's indeed undeniable that no other product covers all business needs like Calendly does. On the other side, this has also reduced the workload by enabling us to focus more on other tasks for the day

Firstly, it's relatively cheaper than the other products in this segment but offers more features. For mid-Sized companies, this CRM is the best choice. If the company is already using Lotus Notes, the integration becomes easier. And finally, this is IBM-based.

Calendly is extremely easy to use for selecting times and days for meetings. From my end, it's very easy to indicate the days and times that I am available for meetings. I have used other scheduling products, but Calendly has the smoothest way of operating. I highly recommend it for scheduling meetings

Actually, I never had to use support during all this time.

There is a lot of support for Calendly. Whenever I have had issues navigating through it, especially as a new user, I found multiple support on the web addressing my questions or concerns. There is a lot of in app informative notes accessible to users to navigate through Calendly when needed.

Oracle CRM on-demand is better for a huge company; it doesn't offer the level of customization this CRM offers. It provides less scope for 3rd party integrations. The analytics are far better with Ardexus CRM. Oracle CRM has not changed in 10 years, whereas Ardexus CRM gets constant Updates.

Everything I've said previously. It takes me entirely out of the loop of coordinating people's schedules, sending invites, booking time, ensuring they get a Zoom invite, etc. It does everything while I do next to nothing, which is as it should be. As a team of one, my time should be spent doing what I do best and getting paid to do: coaching, teaching, consulting, speaking, writing, and creating training content and workshops.

• Over 300% as of last year. We had done a case study which was phenomenal because even I didn't know the numbers were that huge until we finally put pen to paper.
• Time!! I'm in the money business and you know Time is Money if you're in the same industry.
• Affordability. It doesn't break the bank for anyone - having an affordable product along with it being user friendly is a no brainer.
