What is the most annoying part of scheduling meetings?


^^ title says it all. Looking to see what parts people hate the most, and what could be made easier.

Having the people I need available be available.

When important stuff needs to be discussed, it's often red all day with no or very small gaps.

Coordinating the best available time for all, esp with folks at diff companies.

No easy way to fight against them happening. Can I spend $40 on my productivity? Not easily. Can I spend $1000 on a meeting? Trivially.

Having to solve the availability constraint manually. "Next earliest" could be a button click.

Say the meeting's been sent, and someone has an exception. Should be a single click again for next-next earliest.

This would solve most of my one-off meet needs.
