What is Doodle?

Doodle is a meeting scheduling tool that lets you propose several times, share a poll and see which slot works best for the whole group. The free plan covers group polls and calendar connections, while paid plans remove ads and add automatic reminders, custom branding and team features.

Pros: what Doodle does well

  • Participants don't need an account
  • Simple group voting on times
  • Connects to Google and Outlook calendars

Cons: where it falls short

  • Free plan shows ads
  • Reminders and branding need a paid plan

Who Doodle is for

Anyone who regularly has to find a time that works for a group.

Who can skip it

People who only book one-to-one meetings through a single calendar link.
