Appointment Enhancements

We released a series of powerful improvements to the Appointments module, designed to make scheduling appointments, managing availability, and integrating with your calendar easier than ever.

This release includes new features now available to all partners, including custom appointment site URLs, admin access to set staff availability, grouped appointment displays, and several user interface enhancements.

It also introduces a direct calendar integration with Google and Outlook, which is currently in closed beta for select partners with a general release coming soon.
