How to Setup Microsoft Bookings

What is Bookings?

Microsoft Bookings makes scheduling and managing appointments a breeze. Bookings includes a web-based booking calendar; it integrates with Outlook to optimize your staff’s calendar and give your customers flexibility to book a time that works best for them. Automated notification emails reduce no-shows and enhance customer satisfaction.
