CEO Arts and Crafts Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A standard for booking management if you are inside the Microsoft Ecosystem, otherwise keep searching" February 9, 2026 4.0 I was looking for a booking solution for both internal and external meetings that would suite my brand and need. Overall this is a solid solution, but if you want customizations and more importantly, to work with other softwares, you may need to check other alternatives Pros A great solution if you already work (or planning to work) with other microsoft solutions like Teams or Outlook in a cohesive ecosystem. It solves you a great list of headaches! It also comes at a very cheap price point and it's easy to implement with forms and pages. Cons If you want more customization options for your business or plan to use other products integrate with Microsoft Bookings, that are outside of Microsoft native programs, then you should think about it not twice but thrice. Switched from [Calendly](https://www.capterra.com/p/148036/Calendly/) We needed a more automated and easy to implement product Review Source Bill L. Vice President of Sales and Operations Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Booking meetings have never been this easy! " February 2, 2026 5.0 My overall experience with Microsoft Bookings has been positive. It makes scheduling much easier by allowing people to book time based on real availability without back-and-forth emails. The integration with Outlook and Microsoft 365 is a big plus, keeping calendars up to date automatically. While the setup can take a bit of time at first, once it’s configured it runs smoothly and saves a lot of administrative effort. Pros It allows for customers and team members to book or schedule a meeting with me easily without a lot of emails back and fourth on availability. Cons There are really no cons that I can think of for this product - it provides a easy setup and link system for clients/customers and staff. Review Source JW John W. Owner, Designer Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Microsoft Bookings is Great for Small Businesses" November 18, 2025 4.0 My overall experience is good! I would recommend this as an option to any small business wishing to find an affordable yet robust option for scheduling appointments. Pros It's somewhat simple to learn and fairly intuitive. The interface is laid out well and easily navigable. Scheduling is pretty straightforward with the ability to setup individuals within your team. When configured properly it works quite well with Outlook calendars. Cost is reasonable for my business, and payments can be paid out yearly or monthly. I've not had to contact customer support, but using AI tools like CoPilot have helped me figure out most of any issues I've had with it. When properly connected to Outlook, the reminders / notifications via Outlook work perfectly. Cons I had some trouble connecting it up to my Teams app installed on my computer. It simply would NOT add a calendar event. I also had trouble getting the Online Chat option to work through my website and enabling the Booking option through it. However, upon adding a connector (which took some research) I was able to get the calendar issue resolved. The Booking issue in the Online Chat eventually worked out, but I cannot remember how I fixed it. Lastly, the load times of the scheduling app can be a bit lengthy when embedded on a website. Alternatives considered [TimeTap](https://www.capterra.com/p/139709/TimeTap/) Reason for choosing Microsoft Bookings Much cheaper. The cost of TimeTap was way outside of my budget. Plus, with an Office 365 account, I get a LOT more things (SharePoint, Word, Excel, Outlook, OneDrive, etc). Review Source Nona P. Management Technician II Law Enforcement Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Convenient -- especially if you already pay for it -- & gets the job done" May 19, 2025 5.0 Overall, Microsoft Bookings served the exact purpose I needed it to; best of all, it was simple to set up. When my organization was looking to pay for an outside calendaring/booking service, realizing that we already pay for Bookings in our Microsoft bundle and that it is quite easy to use was a very pleasant surprise. Pros Microsoft Bookings is very user friendly -- the fact that it is easily packaged with Microsoft software is an added bonus. The interface on the sign-up side is straightforward, and the ability to have reminders sent out to attendees automatically as an included feature is invaluable. If you already calendar with Outlook, this integration is very smooth (and again, very convenient as far as reminders go) Cons I have an outside vendor that I needed to have access to my Bookings page. As she did not have an email address within my organization (and for security reasons, could not), this meant there were limitations to her access, which was a bit inconvenient as a middleman needed to be designated for changing availability. Alternatives considered [Doodle](https://www.capterra.com/p/142620/Doodle/) Reason for choosing Microsoft Bookings Since we already pay for Bookings, it was the better choice. Switched from [Calendly](https://www.capterra.com/p/148036/Calendly/) We realized we already pay for Bookings and were looking to cut costs as it was. Review Source JH Jimmy H. IT Manager Building Materials Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Get your email signatures cooking 🔥with MS Bookings!" April 24, 2025 5.0 Overall it's been a huge asset to our organization that allows customers, vendors & partners to easily "book" time with key personnel just by following a link in the signature of an email. Pros I like most the solid seamless integration in our O365 platform. Specifically our calendars & email. It's a great consistent business tool supporting multiple departments & locations. Cons As with most organizations, we use Outlook, Exclaimer & MS Bookings. Details vary per user, department & location. Getting the initial config dialed in took a while, fortunately there's plenty of "testing" options before going LIVE & it won't disappoint! Review Source RW Ray W. Senior Consultant Accounting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Must install and use for finding avaliable timeslots for people to book" November 14, 2025 5.0 I really enjoy using it and people book with me daily using this app. it's easier than me finding time slots and afterwards sending them to people Pros Helps people book meetings based on my outlook calendar easily and find open slots and spaces, it's great value for money and the learning curve is very easy. Cons It cannot work with google software, so it has to be microsoft stack like outlook and outlook for web Switched from [Microsoft Excel](https://www.capterra.com/p/176574/Excel/) Excel spreadsheets are a thing of a past, it's not easy to manually find the available time slots Review Source KP KimAlyse P. Positive Outcomes Professor Professional Training & Coaching Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great Bookings!" June 16, 2025 5.0 Overall, this is a great product. It makes scheduling easy for potential clients and keeps me organized. Pros Primarily, it easily synchs with my personal Google calendar. It also allows my potential clients to book initial meetings with me. Cons There really isn't anything that causes me to not like this software. It is easy to use and has been very reliable. Switched from [Setmore](https://www.capterra.com/p/122035/SetMore/) This was easier to synchs to my Microsoft calendar and my Google calendar. Review Source TQ Tawanda Q. Director of Finance Mental Health Care Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Microsoft Bookings Easy Use" May 16, 2025 5.0 I was able to schedule appointments with my staff and clients. And my clients were able to book appointments with me without any issues. Pros I like the way Microsoft Bookings can handle scheduling a small or large business. I also use it for my personal business. Also, it is simplified and easy to navigate. Cons I don't have any Cons for Microsoft Bookings. It was very easy to use, and I did not have any issues. Review Source EM Elizabeth M. Director of IS Project Management Mental Health Care Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Scheduling made easy!" September 18, 2025 5.0 I have personally used Microsoft bookings to handle scheduling appointments with people that I work with. It’s very handy and helpful to have it. Connect to my Outlook calendar and email and I constantly get updates on activity regarding my bookings. Pros Microsoft bookings is easy to set up and allows for flexibility to accommodate your schedule to people. I need to make an appointment with you. You can copy your link and add it to your email signature or send out whenever you need someone to schedule an appointment with you. There’s tons of customization options with all the features available. This is a great option to Calendly and is native to Microsoft. If you connect your Outlook calendar to bookings, appointments will show up on your calendar and you can integrate zoom or other virtual meeting platforms. Cons The only thing I can share about Microsoft bookings is that there is a learning curve if you’re unfamiliar with using scheduling software tools. But there are tons of tutorials on how to use everywhere. Switched from [Calendly](https://www.capterra.com/p/148036/Calendly/) Microsoft bookings is native to our Microsoft suite of tools. Review Source YL Yannick L. Talent Manager Hospitality Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "TOP-Tool zur einfacher Terminkoordination mit Bewerber/-innen!" August 8, 2025 5.0 Pros Ich nutze Booking für die nutzerfreundliche Terminabstimmung mit Bewerberinnen und Bewerbern und bin sehr dankbar für das Tool. Die Terminierung, Terminverschiebung und auch Absage für Bewerber/-innen ist sehr einfach zu handhaben. Bei den Bewerber/-innen kommt es ebenfalls gut an, dass man nach meiner eigenen Verfügbarkeit die Termine selber und mit sehr wenig Aufwand aussuchen kann. Auch ganze Bewerbertage konnten wir mit Bookings schon organisieren, ohne viele Leute anrufen zu müssen. Cons Von der Funktionalität fehlt mir nichts. Super wäre noch, wenn man seine individuelle Buchungsseite etwas mehr und kreativer gestalten kann. Das ist aber mehr Spielerei und kein Must-have. Review Source Shannon A. Product Evangelist Architecture & Planning Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Better than nothing - Room to improve" November 3, 2025 3.0 Overall - Positive. It's certainly better than nothing if you're already using the Microsoft 365 suite of apps. Pros It is nice to be able to link a calendar to an email to help with groups trying to book a time together. Cons It's pretty cumbersome to setup for groups and relies on one person chasing the rest on a group to ensure their calendar is actually up to date. Review Source KS Kara S. Administation Education Management Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Bookings! A great way to keep my meetings and tours easily accesssible to customers" July 30, 2025 5.0 Overall, it's been easy to use and figure out without having to look up videos or tutorials. I love the integration with the other Microsoft produces I use, keeping me organized. Pros This is support easy to use and set up for simple meetings. I've played with it for more advanced bookings for tours and groups and I'm excited to get started using it! I love that you can add logos and customize your booking page. I love that it integrates with my outlook ap and calendar. Cons I can't figure out how to make certain changes or delete a shared bookings page, even as the administrator. It would be nice for customers to be able to pay through the bookings page. Review Source Lauren S. Administative Associate Higher Education Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great for quick appointment scheduling" January 14, 2026 4.0 Pros Microsoft Bookings makes it easy for me to manage appointments for myself and others. As an administrator, being able to quickly manage appointments is a must and this service makes it easy. Cons Some of the booking templates feel limited. I also was unable to make use of the shared booking pages for my organization, but I am sure they are helpful for others. Alternatives considered [SignUpGenius](https://www.capterra.com/p/135392/SignUpGenius/) Reason for choosing Microsoft Bookings My employer prefers Microsoft products to others. Review Source RG Ritu G. Scientist Biotechnology Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Microsoft bookings is easier to use and makes scheduling a breeze" December 29, 2024 4.0 Overall, Microsoft bookings make meeting scheduling with clients and customers and also managing your own scheduling a breeze. It also has an app integrated into Outlook and Teams and one can directly manage calendars and meetings from Teams and Outlook. The bookings and calendar are secure and stored directly in Microsoft 365 platform. I recommend it for all organizations. Pros I personally like that Microsoft bookings is integrated with the Outlook and Teams which makes booking for meetings whether in person or virtual a breeze. It also prevents the repetitive bookings. One also receives reminder text and email notifications which are super helpful. I can manage my personal calendar as well as shared bookings. Cons I like everything that Microsoft bookings offer and you don't have to take subscription if already have Microsoft 365 subscription from your organization. Review Source GA Gabriel A. Sales Engineer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great time booking system to save time" March 15, 2025 5.0 I use Bookings every day to manage my availability & avoid back-and-fourth exchanges to book my meetings with collaborators, partners, prospects & clients. Such a time saver Pros \- Perfect to manage calendar availability - Possible to create multiple meeting types - Sync with Microsoft Outlook Calendar Cons \- It will be great to have more timing granularity Review Source ST Sophia T. Human Resources Assistant Banking Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Bookings at ease!" October 29, 2025 4.0 When I first utilized it, a walk through guide did not pop up, so it took some trial and error testing with a colleague for certain settings. However, since my initial use, quick start guides, templates, etc. pop up, which is very helpful. Pros I stumbled upon Bookings while looking for a way for employees to schedule headshots with me. Bookings came in very handy. It allowed me to fill up open slots and make sure there were no duplicates. There are features that allow you to select specific days or certain time frames which helps with usage. Cons Not necessarily something I do not like, but I wish it had a feature to limit the amount of people who could sign up for the same time frame. This could be offered through Microsoft Outlook as well. Review Source Glen S. Director Staffing and Recruiting Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Microsoft Bookings - a great alternative to Calendly." December 29, 2024 5.0 It's pretty easy to set up a calendar. Our MS365 is the online version. It works very well and customers are booking meetings. Microsoft helpdesk is great. They want to phone you if there is ever a problem. Pros We have the MS365 suite. We only pay £6/month for two users, with six email addresses. The suite of tools/apps is great—including Microsoft Bookings. It's better than free Calendly and probably on a par or better than paid Calendly. It's so easy to add calender booking links to pretty much anything to enable clients to book with you. Cons Nothing to not like. It's a booking calender and does the job well. Review Source MZ Mischa Z. Online Marketeer Renewables & Environment Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Easy to convert leads to calls" January 4, 2026 4.0 Pros Integration with office365 is still amazing. It's handy that you can plan time in front and after a meeting automatically to block. Cons Still the lack of customisation, but in addition there is no way to change the calendar to not show the weekends. We use it for business purposes and we don't operate on the weekends. It confuses the people booking. (because the week starts on Sunday by default and there is no way to change it to start on Monday) Alternatives considered [Calendly](https://www.capterra.com/p/148036/Calendly/) Reason for choosing Microsoft Bookings We already used the microsoft environment, so it made sense to try to get what we wanted there first. As that was the 'free' option. Review Source AW Andrew W. Head Manager and marketing Sports Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Convenience in a bundle" February 20, 2026 5.0 My overall experience with Microsoft Bookings is a 10/10!! The convenience and professionalism and organization is all I need! Pros The best and most important thing I love about Microsoft Bookings is the scheduling/appointment process for my clients and I!! Cons There is not much that I do not like about Microsoft Bookings honestly! I guess you can incorporate AI somehow, that’s the future. Review Source EW Eddie W. SPM Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Straightforward, affordable and logical booking/meeting scheduling tool" February 22, 2025 4.0 Affordable and logical booking/meeting scheduling tool that may no thave the flashiness of competitors Pros Easily accessible and logical way of scheduling meetings Cons Not as flashy/presentable as other tools Alternatives considered [Calendly](https://www.capterra.com/p/148036/Calendly/) Reason for choosing Microsoft Bookings Easier integration with existing Outlook Review Source LM Lucia M.

It is available online and on mobile devices to ensure easy and smooth booking. It is so easy to use and makes managing appointments easy. Cons Microsoft Bookings has been all good. All features works and no complaints. Review Source LT Luke T. Fusion Engineer Oil & Energy Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Microsoft bookings review" December 30, 2025 5.0 Very useful tool for producing booking requests and organising events with numerous of different attendees. Pros Very good value for money for managing any kind of booking processes. Generally very helpful software. Cons Although it is well priced, there are a few free versions of alternative software which could in time be more competitive. Review Source VT Valerie T. Research Associate Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Using Microsoft Bookings" April 9, 2025 5.0 Overall, it's been helpful but there could be some small changes to help with ease and navigation of the website. Pros It helps manage the calendar with different people on the team and avoids scheduling conflicts. Cons There were so many functions that sometimes it was hard to navigate.

Transportation Planner Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Microsoft Bookings Review" December 21, 2024 5.0 Pros Similar to outlook, made it easy to navigate and setup.
