Technologies such as Microsoft Teams and Azure have helped to make working remotely easier for most teams. For many workers, this has been a wonderful development that offers greater flexibility and opportunity. However, it has a drawback of increasing the number of scheduled meetings, chats and other check-ins. If you want to organize your meeting calendar more efficiently, you should start using Microsoft Bookings and Scheduler.
Microsoft Bookings integrates easily with Teams, so you can be confident that everyone has the details they need to connect to the online meeting. All you have to do is join the meeting either from your calendar or from the Teams app. It is that simple!
This workflow offers significant advantages over more conventional appointment booking. These are some of the ways that Microsoft Bookings may enhance your meeting calendar:
Scheduler is another powerful tool for organizing your meetings. Like Microsoft Bookings, it helps to reduce the amount of back and forth necessary to set up meeting times. It leverages the Cortana virtual assistant technology to book meetings.
When you want to schedule a meeting, you can ask Cortana to select some times within a certain timeframe. Cortana then contacts the meeting attendees and offers possible times. If you are all within the same organization, the system can preselect times that will work for everyone. All the attendees need to do is select the timeslot that works best for them.
Basically, Microsoft Schedule works like having an assistant to book meetings for you. You can even email Cortana to set up recurring meetings. When these are set using Scheduler, they can be dynamically adjusted to help work around conflicts.
Managing your meetings using Scheduler is like having a virtual assistant to help with all your planning needs. These are some of the advantages of using this tool:
Organizing meetings and managing your calendar can be a real chore in many organizations. There are so many competing priorities for time. Plus, whenever a larger group is involved, it can take seemingly forever to get to an agreeable date and time.
By using Bookings and Scheduler, you can cut out a lot of the back and forth needed for scheduling. You and your team already have your calendars organized in Outlook. There is no reason that setting up meetings should be so difficult. With these tools, you can save time, effort and stress.
Microsoft Bookings and Scheduler are powerful tools for teams trying to stay organized. If you want to harness these apps and other useful Office 365 solutions, you will need to be on the Microsoft Cloud. Cloudficient can help you migrate from legacy systems to the cloud.
