I think it's been helpful for our team. Unlike Forecast, only those who have access to Team Cal and the actually employee getting the task can see the schedule. For those that may work with the employee that day, they wouldn't know what their schedule is unless they asked or were given access.
I like that it goes directly to the employee's calendar so that they see the tasks daily. If they have other meetings or vacations on their calendar, we are able to see it and avoid any conflicts. I also like that it is pretty easy to us with the drag feature.
I think it still has a lot of room for growth. For what we use it for as an interior design firm, we have a lot of repeating tasks from week to week, and it is not as quick as other programs we have used in the past (Forecast, for instance). We have to put in the project and description every time and if we do drag the task through the week, it puts the task at the top of the google calendar rather than in the employee's daily calendar. The different format can be confusing at times for employee's.

This has saved me time (and grief!) at work.
Teamcal syncs with Google Calendar and provides an easy to understand schedule view. It's really great because scheduling meetings for multiple people with Google Calendar can be difficult. Google Calendar doesn't have a scheduling view, and that's what Teamcal provides. Teamcal layers each person's calendar as a row so it's easy to see when someone is free.
The software is really simple - it does what it says and nothing more beyond that. It would be great to have additional features related to project management.

uniting different calendar tools into one easy to use application
Ease of use, great ability to filter down different departments to sinlge users to see availability of time slots
so far, I am not missing any features, although my use of TeamCal is user-only, not sure how it handles as an admin

It's been great since day one. The biggest benefit by far is the ability to catch double booking and alert staffing about said issue, ensuring there are enough team members to support an event.
Hands down, the ability to see my whole team's (over 60 reports) specific google calendars and what is on the books for each of them. Personally, my favorite view is "the week at a glance" This allows me to identify potential conflicts at a broader scale. I also love how customizable you can make your team view, for example, I have my FT reports listed first and then my PT reports below them, regardless of alphabetizing , and on top of that, I can color code to specific area's of expertise.
Having to manually enter each team member. Once you are done, adding new hires isn't that time consuming.

It has been an excellent experience for our team so far and replaced a bunch of other tools we used for team planning.
Most of all I like the direct Google Calendar integration. Meetings and other calendar entries added by my team members are displayed automatically in TeamCal. The integration makes planning super fast because I don't need to run around and bug everyone for their appointments.
It doesn't offer any functionalities for time tracking. For the use case I need it it's great, but it might not be a good fit for others.

It's been an overall good experience. When I was trying to use Gantt in this way they were the ones who suggested to try this and it has been working good. would just love a couple of changes mentioned above to make it even better.
I am using the software probably a little differently than it was intended but it is working pretty good for us. We are a small to medium sized company with a lot of projects happening at once and we are using TeamCal to help identify where resources might get stretched. We aren't using it to manage the projects, we are using it as an overview tool.
Because of the way we are using the software we would really like to be able to see things in a 3 month at a time or more format like the Gantt software allows. I think that it would be helpful if the weekend days were shaded a different color.

Overall it has been good. Minor changes would make it even better.
Love that I can see my entire team and other teams so easily in one view
Very difficult and time consuming to arrange the calendars within the TeamCal view. Would be great if we could drag and drop.
