Teamup is a cloud-based calendar solution aimed at facilitating coordination across your entire team. It has a number of different features for teams both large and small.
Google Calendar is well suited for scheduling 1:1 and smaller group meetings and recurring meetings. It's also well suited to connect with scheduling software. However, there is still a lot of opportunity for improvement when you want to make a very well-organized calendar (for example, limitations with the meeting tagging & categories). It's also not as well suited for helping with scheduling for bigger groups.
It is very helpful for an organization where many people are working remotely. Especially when people are from different time zones and they need to be reminded a few minutes before the event. It is also useful to keep track of certain events such as meetings and employees taking leave. And it is a handy tool when you need to be reminded about recurring events such as daily standing meetings.
Makes it easy to schedule meetings and block off time
I can see everyone in my org's calendar's as well which makes it convenient when scheduling calls with multiple people so I can see when they have overlapping availabilities.
Integration with Zoom and Microsoft Teams for video calls that can be added from the calendar invite itself
Being able to group a team much easier so I don't have to add the same people over and over again without having to have access right to create a Google group
Room or space management, because of repeating events the rooms of the office tend to be always "occupied" but not everyone is there due to how the new hybrid way of working is
Better way of working together in the calendar events where it's easier for the team to prepare if I give a clearer better UI of all the documents/presentations they might need to look over
It's a bit outdated on how things should be working, the UI per say hasn't changed much and I believe there is still a lot more room for improvement in how the calendar shows, the creating process, the parameters on setting up an event and it could be better integrated with the g-suite and other tools
Most of the other services we would use don't have the same integration with other Google services that Google Calendar has. The ability to view and set things from your email is very convenient. So is the ability to have your notifications automatically show up on an Android phone as a reminder.
I find TeamUp really easy to use. We do not need much prior knowledge before starting to use it. Also, your team can collaborate under the common calendar workspace, which is important for organizational use.
