Bookings for Education?
We are actually running E3 licenses here on campus.
Hi Jason,
Thanks for your reply.
Since you are running E3 licenses, this makes it a little easier. Our work to bring Bookings to E3 is almost complete and we should have news in the next 2-3 weeks.

Has there been any word on this? We haven't seen it show up in the app launcher yet and would really like to get some of our internal customers using it over our winter break to be ready for the start of the semester.
Hi Jason,
We sent a Message Center communication to E3 admins about a month ago letting them know that Bookings will start shipping to E3 customer as off-by-default with a $0 add-on. This means that the admin needs to "purchase" the $0 add-on in order to get Bookings.
We are still rolling this out, so it might take some time to reach every customer.

Hope this helps!

We must have missed it. Thanks. We don't see it yet so we'll just keep checking back in.
That's great news! I found that I was actually able to get into it using a direct URL last night and it appeared to have full functionality. We can't wait to get started on it when it is officially launched.
