There is a "Book meeting" button in this extension that allows me to see a weekly view and click on the desired meeting time on the timeline. This extension seems to be the only way to get this functionality using Calendly on desktop. So I find it indispensable!

Overall Thoughts: Calendly’s Chrome extension generally offers a convenient way to schedule meetings without the usual back-and-forth emails. It has strong points like ad hoc link generation and integrations with major calendars. Many users praise it for time-saving features, professional appearance, and relatively smooth workflows. Despite these positives, there’s consistent feedback about needing more robust integration options and better user controls. Some users have raised concerns about privacy permissions, calendar syncing glitches, or lack of multi-language support. Customer support responsiveness also appears hit-or-miss, with some users finding it helpful and others getting no timely assistance. Key Strengths: Time-Saving & Convenient: Most people find the extension invaluable for booking meetings quickly and giving clients a self-service option. Ad Hoc Meeting Links: Creating quick, one-time scheduling links can be a big help for impromptu sessions. Professional Image: Sharing a Calendly link projects an organized, client-focused impression. Areas for Improvement Integration & Speed: Several reviews mention cumbersome or incomplete integrations with Google Calendar, Zoom, and other tools. A snappier and more reliable syncing process would remove much of the frustration users describe. Advanced Features & Customization: More advanced functionality like sending custom links directly from the extension could help target specific clients or potential sales leads, rather than relying on the general scheduling interface. Custom link generation for recurring or specialized events, or easily embedding branding, would enhance the extension’s flexibility. Permissions & Privacy: Some users worry about the extension asking to “read and change all data” on every webpage. Calendly explains why, but toggling permissions on/off more granularly might ease privacy concerns. Customer Support: A few reviewers cite slow response times or insufficient support channels. Improving response consistency and providing clear, in-extension help options would better serve users. Language Support: There’s repeated interest in expanding beyond English, especially Spanish and French. Adding broader language support could make the tool more accessible. Final Take: The Calendly Chrome extension can be a game-changer for scheduling, but it needs to address integration hiccups, offer more targeted link-generation features, and refine its privacy settings. If these points are tackled, Calendly would be well on its way to a higher rating, at least from me.
