## Why do teams choose Cronofy over Calendly?

## Combine calendars in real-time without creating groups

Calendly requires you to create a group of attendees to compare their calendars, this gives you no flexibility when coordinating group meetings.  With Cronofy, you don't need to set up polls requesting people's availability or create groups to compare calendars, you just add the emails of your attendees to find their combined availability in real time.

## Cronofy is the end-to-end interview scheduling solution

Recruitment teams often have complex meeting needs and Calendly falls short on customizable features to adapt to these needs.  For instance, recruiters find that with Calendly they can't personalize booking pages for candidates or curb unsolicited scheduling. Cronofy powers scheduling for over 75 Applicant Tracking Systems worldwide and fully automates interview scheduling for teams.

## Calendly is expensive when you need to scale

With Calendly, you might pay more for extra features, and you still pay during less busy seasons. Finance teams love Cronofy's pricing model  because we only charge for active usage.

> Cronofy has significantly reduced the time we spend coordinating interviews. Their sequence template feature has been an efficient way to schedule multiple interviews with a candidate, without our team coordinating calendars manually.
