Zoho Bookings Calculate Travel Times
Hi. I run a photography business that means I travel to homes to shoot photos/videos for Real Estate agents. One big reason I can't use bookings is that I need it to calculate travel time from a location and automatically block out travel time when a client books. So the client would input the address on the bookings page, and then the travel time would be marked off the calendar. This would be a useful feature for any type of services business that travels to locations when a client books.
