Book multiple staff for meeting
Exact same need. Main issue is checking availability first, or else the system will create more problems than if it weren't doing anything (and the old-fashioned multiple back-forth emails have to be used to check "are you available"/"no, but am here"/"well that doesn't work for me"/etc.).
Group booking is available in other programs (many of which can synch with MS).
Is anyone from MS hearing this and can comment on whether this is at least on the roadmap? If not, we won't hold our breath. If so, perhaps we use other options in the interim, but can place on our own tech horizons the idea of using more of MS apps. Otherwise, competitive options start to seem very attractive.
Anyone from MS, please share your thoughts/possible expectations. Thanks.
Want to invide 200 members to choose from 3 different (irregular) appointments.
I need to:
- Set a group limit to 75 people per appointment
- Set an end date to the calendar appointments since we only offer the appointment next week only
- Obviously let 75 individuals attend an appointment
- Let me send out additional info to the individuals on the three different appointments
Bookings seems to be far off as a solution to me right now. Can't fina any at all I'm afraid, apart from frekkin Doodle.
I wish I were telling the MS ecosystem has the solution with bookings. Not yet. Most robust system I've found (and the one I use, until Bookings comes of age) is Acuity Scheduling. They have extensive configuration possibilities, most of which I've tested/used/use.
can you let me know what other apps integrate with 365 that we can use for this as i think this is not going to be taken care of my MS anytime soon so we will have to look at moving to something else.
