Hi everyone, good to see you!

Here's a simple yet efficient Zobot for organizing and scheduling appointments via Zoho Bookings. This Zobot can start a proactive conversation, schedule appointments/bookings with your website visitors on their preferred date & time, and makes the job easier for both operator and visitor. You can do slight customization to the script given here according to your business needs and use it on your website instantly.

How does this Zobot work?

This bot is integrated with Zoho bookings. It can engage visitors, list the available services, and schedule a booking on available slots only after verifying via email OTP . 
  • Schedule bookings: The Bot collects email, preferred date and time by calender widget and schedules a booking in available slots. 
  • Track bookings: The Bot assists in checking the status of bookings by simply receiving a booking ID from the user.
  • Verify email: The Bot is programmed to verify the email by sending OTP,  only verified visitors will be allowed to do further process. 
  • Reschedule bookings: The Bot can reschedule an appointment on the available slots by simply receiving a booking ID.

        Is there any way to set up plans and pricing in Zoho Subscriptions and have those available as Products in the CRM? We are trying to set up the CRM and the Products seem to be more geared toward selling products that are not subscription based.  So if we sell annual or monthly contracts which are $10/seat/month, I can set this up as a plan in Subscriptions, but how can I set the same thing up in the CRM for the salespeople to sell/quote? What is the best practice for setting up the CRM Products to

        Hello,  Is it possible to add customer address information to the Zoho bookings appointment screen? Or have it pull that information automatically from the CRM? We are wanting to use this as a field management software but it is difficult to pull the address from multiple sources when it would be ideal to have a clickable address on the appointment screen that opens up the user's maps.  It would also be advantageous for the "list view" to show appointment times instead of just duration and booking
