My company uses Doodle when we are working with a client and need to schedule a call or meeting between our employees and theirs. Coordinating calendars is something I do pretty regularly, but to do so with people outside of our organization is taxing. Doodle is a more professional and efficient manner of asking "What works for you? Here's what we've got." You get answers easily and quickly and can make a decision just as fast.
Pros
Organizes people's time across companies.
Gives organizers an easy way to lay out time/date options.
Gives participants an easy way to convey their availability.
Is a professional and efficient manner in which to schedule meetings and phone calls.
Cons
Doodle page can be overwhelming with ads.
If you have a lot of available dates and times, the current scroll feature gets long and a little hard to view.

I don't have time to go to 10 people and ask for their availability and hope a date and time matches up - Doodle does it for me. I've had to bring together a group of 10 people for a voluntary meeting and I didn't want to overburden anyone with the endless email chains of "I am free at this time on this date" over and over. I created a Doodle in about 3 minutes, sent it out and we were able to come to a conclusion pretty quickly. It happens even more quickly when people know to expect a Doodle link from you - consistency is key!
We currently use Doodle to help collaborate with others outside of our organization. Within our industry, there are many moving parts that make it difficult to effectively and easily manage large groups of people with often busy schedules. Doodle allows us to schedule meetings and phone calls at convenient dates and times without large email chains or multiple messages.
Pros
It makes it easier to collaborate with large groups of people.
The platform is simple and easy to use for beginners.
You can easily see what options are most desirable, who chose the options, and visualize schedules.
Cons
It can be difficult to arrange times in a concise way, or allow users to specify their own times.
A note section would be helpful, allowing users to specify certain time constraints.
Likelihood to Recommend
Doodle is well-suited for collaborations and organizing meetings for multiple people. Examples include scheduling calls, meetings, or events for certain days or time frames. It may not be well-suited for smaller meetings or situations in which there is a very small time frame (i.e. a few minutes, or a short phone call).

Doodle helps us communicate our needs better and actually manage communication within the company in the most efficient way. Before Doodle, we used endless emails or even offline meetings - what a waste of time it was! Since we started using Doodle, we’ve saved a lot of time on the operational tasks.
Pros
User-friendly interface.
Easy onboarding.
Easy usage.
Cons
It could work better on mobile.
Would like to see more features.
Likelihood to Recommend
It will work well in some organizations that work mainly remotely but need employees to communicate their needs and requirements out loud. We have been working from several countries and I can see nothing but benefits from using Doodle in our company. It works great for corporate purposes, too. Highly recommended.
