What it is

Zoho Bookings schedules appointments and other event types, including one-on-one, group, collective, and resource-based bookings. It provides booking pages, payment collection, round-robin scheduling, automated reminders, and two-way synchronization with Google and Outlook calendars. Teams can be managed with roles and permissions, while workspaces organize event types by location or department. Custom workflows can automate email and SMS communication, CRM updates, and invoice creation. Payments can be collected through Stripe, PayPal, Razorpay, and other major providers. Browser access and mobile apps for iOS and Android are available. The forever-free plan is for one user and includes one event type and workspace, online meetings, reminders, and two-way calendar sync. Paid plans start at $6 per user per month with annual billing, and the premium trial lasts 15 days without requiring card details. Zoho says plans can be canceled at any time without penalties or further charges and states that Bookings is GDPR compliant.
