Checkfront vs. Chili Piper

Checkfront is very intuitive and user friendly which makes it easy to train new seasonal staff quickly. We operate out of several different locations. Each outpost manager has the ability to go into checkfront and modify inventory based on their needs and availability, which makes communication easy and eliminates overbooking

The customer and inventory calendar views allow me to "play Tetris" with lodging assignments to optimize guest experience.

It is very well suited for anyone looking for a scheduling tool that integrates directly with Salesforce and/or Marketo, or other marketing automation platforms. Especially if you need to route to teams based on different regions or other criteria.There are other simpler scheduling tools out there, but this makes routing and tracking on the back end much easier with the best integration with other tools.

• The Google Calendar integration is seamless, a unique zoom link is also automatically created when a meeting is booked on my calendar.
• The booking link is simple for my prospects and customers to find time on my calendar.
• The chrome plug in is useful to use no matter what tab or page im sitting on.

• The ux interface could be easier to navigate for admins
• The set up or meeting types could be more intuitive, as an admin I have had to help our reps set this up a lot as they have gotten confused
• Chili Piper can have certain words they use like booker assignee which could be better defined in the onboarding process for reps

• Support was very responsive during our integration phase, and after that too.
• They have the whole infrastructure built to notify customers about bug/outages, which is excellent. Entire System outage only happened once, but being updated on fix progress helped a lot to keep our team calm.

I've used Drift and Salesloft scheduling tools. They all connect to google calendars, but Chili Piper is the only that I'm aware of that can insert time suggestions without actually blocking the time off as well as Round Robin assignment of meetings. Chili Piper has been the easiest to use as a sales rep.

Incentivized

• More qualified opps
• Increased efficiency. Much less time spent trying to line up availability etc. No more back and forth email chains trying to find times to meet.
• Increased transparency. All meetings and Chili Piper events are logged directly in Salesforce for us.
