# New 2026 Report on the Administrative and Executive Assistant Profession!

## Vimcal EA vs Competitors

At our core, we’re product builders (ex-Apple, ex-Twitter, ex-Microsoft) who’ve spent the past decade obsessing over the calendar experience for high-volume schedulers.

Every feature is built hand-in-hand with the EA community and stress-tested by the people who schedule the most, so these hold up not just on paper, but in the real calendars EAs live in every day.

## 10 durable advantages

### Competitors

- Auto-creating/deleting holds
- Time zone management
- Group polling
- Calendar audits
- Graphs and metrics
- <100 ms response times
- AI free time finder
- Keyboard shortcuts
- Mobile app
- Calendar product for executives

## Built with and for EAs

Missing even one of these capabilities creates friction that add-ons or one-off integrations cannot fix.

### Guided Onboarding

White-glove onboarding with templates and best practices

### Human Support

Fast support from real people who schedule all day

### Feedback Loops

Continuous feedback loops with EA champions and customer councils

### Training Resources

Training resources, office hours, and implementation help for Outlook and Google

## We support you the way you support your execs

That’s why **8 out of 10 customers** say that besides the product, our support was the #1 reason they chose Vimcal EA.

### Tailored 1-on-1 onboarding

Guided setup tailored to you and your execs' workflows.

### Fast replies from real humans

We support you at EA speed. Bugs are fixed and new features are shipped in days, not weeks.

### You shape the product

Nearly every feature started as a request from an EA. When you share feedback, we listen.

> “I have not seen customer service like Vimcal EA’s with any of the companies we’ve tried, and that includes big players like Asana.”
