Advantages of having sign-in options:

• Customers can access the portal and view their appointment details and history.

• Bookings forms are auto-populated using the customer details stored once they sign up.

• Rescheduling and canceling is quicker from the customer portal.

Advantages of removing sign-in options:

• Eliminating the sign-up option allows the user to make bookings as a guest. This may be preferred by some as they do not have to go through the account creation process.

• Not all types of businesses have customers who have to visit repeatedly. For such businesses, a sign up option is not necessary.

• Some customers have privacy concerns where they don't want to reveal their personal information.

• Removing it avoids confusion for the customer.

Ultimately, it's your decision to have the sign-up option or to encourage only guest user bookings. Here are the instructions to allow only guest bookings in Zoho Bookings.

1. Click the Settings icon  in the menu bar.

2. Navigate to Workspace and select the required workspace in left pane. Then click Booking form.

3. Click the Registered Users tab.

4. Deselect the checkbox labeled "Booking as a registered user." This will remove the sign-up option from the booking page and allow only guest bookings.
