Top Rated SUMO Scheduler Alternatives
There are so many things I love about SUMO! To begin with, the people are simply the best. Supportive and there when you need them. They've had our back when it counts. Every time, they've gone the extra mile. The product itself is quite robust and configurable. Out of the box, it does the vast majority of things we need to do for Recruiting, Graduate Advising and Graduate Admissions. We have very, very specific logic for Undergraduate Advising scheduling (crazy complex). SUMO helped us with developing and plugging-in this logic. It handles roughly 2,000 Undergraduate students attempting to schedule on exactly the same day. So... Easy to use, easy to configure and very very capable with crazy nice people who have your back.

Our people are addicted to Outlook. We schedule lots and lots of appointments all at once the first part of each semester. This means that the native sync capability of SalesForce is insufficient to meet that demand. Salesforce for Outlook only syncs about every 5 minutes (or more depending on circumstances). Short of pushing the Sync button every time you schedule, there is no way to get SalesForce's native sync capability to sync at more frequent intervals. This opens the door double-booking.
This is NOT a SUMO issue. We solved this by also installing Riva which allows us to sync appointments every minute. Perhaps SalesForce's Lightening Sync will someday provide more capability. For now, the combination of SUMO and Riva is working wonderfully. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has completely disturbed the way I schedule appointments. The interface is less user friendly and making it difficult to create and manage my calendar. The automatic reminders are a needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Does not help me stay organized. Being unable to sync my schedule across all my devices. All SUMO Scheduler has consumed me so much time and cause stress.

Scheduling features
Working integrations were promised during the sales cycle
Their commitment to have the implementation completed in less than 6 weeks Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
During the sales cycle, we were promised that integrations with Salesforce and WebEx were available when in fact that was completely false. Unfortunately, we tried to implement this software for approximately 8 months and finally gave up after commitments and deadlines were continually missed. They strung us along claiming they have made enhancement/fixes and each time we experienced the same error or found more issues. Being in technology for my entire career, I understand there will always be challenges with implementing new software but the real test is how a company respond when this happens. Below is what we experienced:
- Implementation manager that was either new to the role or had very little understanding of the platform
- Director of Customer Success that had no urgency, empathy or skill in managing these situations
- Executives that lacked integrity and are more concerned about profit than having a great product that works
Despite dedicating a massive amount of time and resources in the hopes of making this work, the company still refused to provide any credit or relief on the fees paid. We provided undisputable examples of how they were in breach of contract but never received a response. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A plataforma líder de engajamento do cliente da SUMO acelera a capacidade de resposta da sua organização à demanda do cliente, necessária para impulsionar o crescimento dos negócios Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I've managed our relationship with SUMO from implementation to today and can say that it's been such a huge benefit to our organization. As a growing nonprofit that places a high priority on leveraging technology to allow our direct service providers ways to do their jobs, SUMO was a natural fit for us. The implementation process was seamless as their team was always available and very easy to work with (hey Stephen!). We're now able to more easily set up and manage user schedules. And our favorite feature has been the self-scheduler which has completely streamlined the scheduling process for follow up appointments with clients.
On top of a great product, the support team has always been responsive and helpful when working through bugs or issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not much. They're open to feature requests and are responsive to getting those implemented once the use case is understood. Sometimes there are small changes in version releases that reset settings that aren't communicated ahead of time, but that's usually an easy explanation to provide to end users.
