The year that was at Zoho Calendar 2023- Part 1

Hello, amazing community members!

Happy new year from all of us here at Zoho Calendar.

As we begin the new year, we'd like to thank each and everyone of our community members for your unwavering support and love that you have shown for Zoho Calendar.  From exciting developments to significant milestones, our community has been at the heart of every success story and shared achievement.

In this special post, let's rewind the clock and delve into all the exciting updates and improvements that have shaped Zoho Calendar over the past 12 months.

All your pending invites in one spot

The more events you have on your calendar, the more likely it is that you will forget to send a response to some of the events. There's no need to stress because you can now RSVP to all your events directly from the Yet to respond section in the top right corner of your Zoho Calendar. Learn more.

Check-in for your day right from your calendar.

You can now check-in, check out, and manage your availability status directly from your Calendar, thanks to the revamped user profile section. Apart from this, you can access all the user guides and download the latest version of the Zoho Calendar mobile application from one place. Check out how!

Skeptical about the state of your event email invites? Worry not!

The view events tab now lets you see where your event email invites are in terms of the delivery status. You will see the "undelivered message" status and the reason for it next to the participant if any of the invites have not yet been delivered. Learn more.

Rapid meetings- for those who juggle an endless stream of meetings without a break!

Rapid meetings help you shorten your meeting duration by altering the default event duration. It helps to add a short buffer between back-to-back meetings by giving you time to take a quick break or prepare for the next meeting. Explore.

Simplify the rescheduling process with Event time proposal

With Event Time Proposal in Calendar, collaboration becomes effortless. The attendees can now propose alternative times if they're unavailable during the scheduled event. No more back-and-forths; effortlessly reschedule with just a few clicks. Learn more.

Automate your workflows with Zoho Calendar- Zapier Integration

Eliminate the need for manual tasks and unleash the power of automation for your daily work. With the Zapier integration, you can connect to more than 5,000 applications and automate event-based actions to streamline your daily tasks. Learn more.

Elevate your productivity with Zoom conferencing integrated to your Zoho Calendar

With this integration, you can now schedule and join Zoom meetings directly from Zoho Calendar. No more hunting for meeting links - just click the Zoom link in your event invite and launch your meeting right from Zoho Calendar without switching tabs. Explore!

Keep your team informed by setting up Out of Office in your calendar

When you take days off from work, whether it's for a holiday, a business trip, or any other reason, it is always a good idea to update your calendar so that no one tries to schedule a meeting with you or add you to an event. You can now quickly set up an Out-of-Office Event to notify your contacts that you won't be available for a few days or even a few hours. Check It Out!

Give these features a try if you haven't already, and if you have, let us know what you think.
 
We'll be back with more posts to keep you all informed on what's happening in Zoho Calendar.
 
Give these features a try if you haven't already, and if you have, let us know what you think. Have a look at our detailed Help guide on Zoho Calendar features and how to use them.
