Acuity alternative

Since getting acquired by Squarespace, Acuity is known for being error-prone, support can be difficult to get a hold of, and they haven’t shipped new features in quite some time. SavvyCal is the Acuity Scheduling alternative that makes scheduling collaborative instead of a nuisance.

Acuity was a great start. SavvyCal picks up where it left off.

It’s been almost two years since Squarespace acquired Acuity. Not much has changed since then, but that’s also part of the problem. They’re slow to roll out improvements (if at all), it’s very difficult to get a hold of support, and they’ve been known to be error-prone.

Who wants to use a product that doesn’t innovate and isn’t reliable? Even though SavvyCal wasn’t even around when Acuity was acquired, we’re already running laps around them. New features are released weekly, you can get support directly from the founder, and it goes above and beyond where Acuity left off.

“SavvyCal makes me feel better about finding time to meet with clients, partners, and colleagues. It goes beyond similar tools by removing the awkwardness of imposing your schedule upon others.”

Make personalization a priority

With SavvyCal, you can create personalized links in seconds to make a great impression while also reducing the steps needed to schedule a time.

With Acuity, you have to send the same ol’ link to everyone.

Find the best time for everyone

With SavvyCal, recipients can overlay their calendar on top of yours to easily find mutual availability.

With Acuity, the burden is on the recipient to switch back and forth to find a good time.

Optimize for preferred times

With SavvyCal, you can optimize your schedule by presenting availability windows in a particular order.

With Acuity, recipients are limited to just one availability window.

Adjusting availability should save time, not waste time.

With SavvyCal, you can quickly make changes across multiple meeting types at the same time.

With Acuity, availability has to be manually changed for each and every link.

Protect against meeting overload

With SavvyCal, you can limit how many meetings can be booked per day, week, or month.

With Acuity, you might wake up to 10 back to back meetings on a Monday.

Customize availability on the fly

With SavvyCal, you can preview and manually allow or block off time before sending.

With Acuity, “ad hoc meetings” have to be created in order to adjust availability, which completely negates the purpose of creating preset links in the first place.

Select calendars on a per-link basis

With SavvyCal, you can check for conflicts across multiple calendars and set which calendar you want to store each meeting in.

With Acuity, every meeting is stored on the same calendar — don’t they teach you not to mix business with pleasure?

Multiple duration lengths for each link

With SavvyCal, recipients can book as little or as much time as they need.

With Acuity, you have to create a separate link for every duration variant you want to offer.

Ad-free meeting polls

With SavvyCal, you can invite people to vote on a set of times to meet without any distractions.

With Acuity, you’re out of luck if you want to schedule a group meeting.
