Microsoft Bookings allows you to create a booking calendar for your different services.
The created calendar contains the list of your services with their schedules, runtime, and prices.

Your customers have access to a booking page to make an appointment by selecting one of the services you provide or even to pick a specific employee.

Bookings integrates custom fields that you create according to your needs. You will get all the necessary information for your service the minute your customer does the booking.
The association with Outlook helps you gain time and visibility in your schedule. It also allows customers to see availability when making an appointment on the booking page.
Whether for you or your customers, Microsoft Bookings saves you a lot of time thanks to its user-friendly features as they are related to the Office 365 suite.
