Do I need to install anything to use WhenMeet.me?
No. WhenMeet.me is a web link that needs no install, while Microsoft’s scheduling poll is an Outlook-native workflow.
Microsoft’s scheduling poll workflow is strongest inside Outlook and Microsoft 365. WhenMeet.me is a web link for mixed groups: it reads Microsoft and Google Free/Busy directly, then covers everyone else with a hand-marked availability grid.

|---|---|---|
| Pricing | Free | Bundled with Microsoft 365 |
| Install | Web link — no install | Outlook-native workflow |
| Data source | Live Free/Busy + manual marking | Free/Busy + poll responses |

WhenMeet.me is the better fit when you need real cross-provider Free/Busy matching without polls or sign-ups, or a free personal or team booking link that is ready the first time you open Booking links after connecting your calendar. It is free and works for any group size.
Microsoft Scheduling Poll / FindTime can be a better fit if your team is already standardised on it or if you need features it offers that WhenMeet.me does not.
