So how do you know which meeting scheduler tool is the best fit for you? Getting to the bottom of it, let's look at the popular scheduling tools Zoho Bookings and HubSpot to help you determine which one is best for your business goals.
Both Zoho Bookings and HubSpot offer tools that simplify the process of setting up appointments, even for those who lack technical expertise. What's more, both platforms have a variety of features that cater to different scheduling needs, letting you experiment with scheduling options.
What is Zoho Bookings?
Zoho Bookings is a good-looking and versatile scheduling software that simplifies the process of setting up today’s appointments while standing out a little from competitors.
A standout feature of Zoho Bookings is their having what’s called auto-customisation for your industry – whatever that industry may be. Very cool. They also uniquely offer pre-qualifying questions for any meeting scheduling to ensure your sales team (and the lead!) isn’t wasting time. Zoho calling themselves productive, professional, and painless rings true for the company, who enjoys good user reviews. They sync with multiple calendars and feature a user-friendly interface with a range of features like automatic time zone adjustment.
What is HubSpot?
HubSpot really doesn’t need an introduction. A leader in the conversion and CRM+ space, USA’s HubSpot’s meeting scheduler is actually free.
One of the most popular selling points is the tool coming integration-ready with whatever apps your company and team(s) are already using. Plus, any meeting contact is quick-synced with the HubSpot contacts database so there’s a uniquely built-in ecosystem with HubSpot to ease running your business – from meeting scheduling to warm-lead nurture and everything else.
Prospects can even schedule meetings with more than one person from your organisation in what are called group meeting links, which we think was a very cool, power-to-consumer feature.
