Availability Management Best Practices

Get the most out of availability management with these practical tips

  1. 1

    Connect all calendars you actively use (work and personal) so availability checks account for every commitment, not just one calendar.

  2. 2

    Add buffer times of 10–15 minutes between meetings to give yourself room for notes, bio breaks, and mental resets.

  3. 3

    Set date-specific overrides for holidays and vacations at least a week in advance to prevent last-minute booking conflicts.

  4. 4

    If you serve clients in multiple timezones, keep your working hours slightly wider than your local preference to accommodate common overlap windows.

Availability Management FAQ

Common questions about availability management

Can I sync multiple calendars?

Yes! Connect multiple Google Calendar accounts, Outlook calendars, and more. All connected calendars are checked for conflicts before showing availability.

How does timezone detection work?

We automatically detect your invitee's timezone based on their browser. They see times in their local zone, and the booking is created in your timezone. No confusion.

What are buffer times?

Buffer times are gaps before or after meetings. Set a 15-minute buffer after calls to take notes, or a 10-minute buffer before to prepare. No back-to-back meeting stress.

Can I set different availability for different event types?

Absolutely. Sales calls can be available 9-5, while coaching sessions might only be Tuesday/Thursday afternoons. Each event type can have unique availability rules.
