What do you like best about Clockwise?

I appreciate the ease of setting up Clockwise to work on my calendar. I really enjoy the lunch hour feature as it helps me set aside a time for a break. The integration with Slack is also super useful - I love that it updates my Slack status. It is also helpful to have focus time set on my calendar for the week - and for that focus time to be dynamic and adjust to meetings that pop up throughout the week! All in all - it is a useful tool that saves me time finding openings, setting aside focus time, and ensures I take a break throughout the day. As an admin on the account, it is also pretty easy to add users, which I appreciate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Clockwise?

The only thing I don't necessarily like is that we cannot remove free users from our team account - they have to remove themselves. This isn't much of an issue, just a minor inconvenience when trying to clean up membership after an associate has left the company. The meeting schedule feature isn't bad, but could use more robust features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Clockwise solving and how is that benefiting you?

Not having enough focus time.

Building in a midday break to recharge for the rest of the day.

Reduces scheuduling conflicts by being able to mark meetings flexible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Clockwise?

It is inconvenient to go around other people's calendars to find good slots to propose meetings. Moving meetings or optimizing the agenda is also a tedious and time-consuming task.

Since using Clockwise this has become natural, simple and without too much effort.

With the right information Clockwise can really make the job of scheduling meetings easier, especially when you have a lot of them.

I use it every time I need to plan a meeting.

I've never felt the need for customer support services.

I use it with GSuite and Slack and it has been really simple setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Clockwise?

If other people are not using Clockwise the calendar optimization is obviously less efficient, especially for 1:1s.

If the request to find alternatives about changing a meeting goes on too long or the sentences are too articulate, Clockwise gets confused. I suggest easy and direct speech. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Clockwise solving and how is that benefiting you?

Organizing meetings, changing dates, post-poning and canceling.

The best among all is finding a good time for all the people invited in a meeting. IMHO it is a tedious task that a machine can do faster and better than a human. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Clockwise?

It builds in the focus time that I need, but that I find too cumbersome for me to consistently put in place myself. I like that the AI scheduler responds to changes in my calendar even before I do. I've found that it's positively impacted my productivity, and made my colleagues more sensitive when it comes to booking over pre-allocated time in my calendar too. For a single user, I think the price is also reasonableand it was also easy to integrate with key tools I already use for work, e.g. Outlook, Asana. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Clockwise?

The scheduling from Asana could be improved to help with task planning and time management. For example, If I could split up focus time for one large task more seamlessly;instead of creating multiple sub-tasks which are difficult to schedule sequentialy using the AI scheduler. There could also be an easier way to cancel auto events without them being re-created in my calendar (i.e. I often skip lunch, despite my best intentions to schedule it in). If I could add labels to focus time blocks more easily, that would be great too, as I use my focus blocks to fill in my timesheet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Clockwise solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's supporting me in my time-management, and discipline. I consider myself 'ruled by my calendar', so if the time is scheduled, I'll use it accordingly. Clockwise also helps me keep track of my time to complete my timesheets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how intuitive it is. It is very simple to use, and it integrates very well with my day to day. I also like the continues improvements and new features added. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Clockwise?

I don't dislike that it isn't there, but it would be super helpful to have the opportunity to change the availability hours for specific links. Sometimes we send links to customers across different regions and would like to have more flexibility for them, but not in the other links I send out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Clockwise solving and how is that benefiting you?

It does a great job of helping me manage my day-to-day activities, and the scheduling links are incredibly helpful because it saves me the time of having to look for availability within my team for customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Clockwise holds spac efor me to focus and GSD every day. I've learned I can rely on it's amazing in Slack app summary of my day, lunch and after hours call out son Slack to my team members and ability to create swaths of deep focus time! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Clockwise?

I would love if there were custom features, like I walk my dog every day in the afternoon & would love an option for that to not only pop up in my cal but also on Slack with a specific emoji. Also would love an option to add custom US holidays for when I'm out of office. Even a simple "no entry" emoji would be great, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Clockwise?

I loved Clockwise when I first learned about it. It was exactly what I needed on my daily basis:

- easy to install

- sync with my Google Cal

- mute the noitifications when I'm in meetings

- auto-status when I'm OOO

- having all great summaries of meetings Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Clockwise?

- all the pros got killed once I realized that Clockwise can't read do all that when you are traveling and change time zones: I have 2 time zones in my Gcal, one primary another one secondary, I always keep my GCal time zones up to date and I expected Clockwise to sync with GCal, sadly it doesn't. It keeps clearing my "Do not clear" status in Slack, keeps changing my hours to "Late hours" while I'm on the opposite side of the world and it's morning for me. I tried to re-install, delete etc. I don't have time to do something that should be part of the intetegration.

Maybe that's only my case but I just can't bother. I realized that the more apps you have and the more bugs and imperfections you have - early days you'd care to figure out the technical side of things but when it's an efficiency/productivity app and it fails on such a fundamental issue - I just don't have any bandwidth to even try to solve for this, while I have other apps I need to battle with their bugs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Clockwise solving and how is that benefiting you?

Ease of use and integration between Slack and Google Calendar - the only use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
