MeetingPulse now offers improved features to make scheduling and managing bookings easier for both organizers and attendees. Below are the latest updates and how to use them.
1. Encourage Booking
Organizers can now make it easier for attendees to schedule meetings or sessions by providing calendar-friendly options immediately after booking:
Download calendar invites: After completing a booking, attendees can download calendar invites to ensure they don’t forget their appointment.
Multiple formats supported: Calendar appointments can be added to Google Calendar, Outlook Online, or downloaded as individual ICS files for any calendar application.

This feature encourages more attendees to commit to their bookings while keeping all appointments accessible and organized.
2. Time Zone Clarity
To avoid confusion for attendees in different regions, calendar invites are now automatically adjusted to their local time zone.
Attendees see the correct local time for their appointment in the calendar invite.
Organizers no longer need to manually convert times for international attendees.
Additionally, attendees can choose to switch their schedule to match the event’s time zone using the button in the upper-right corner of the Schedule module.
This ensures a seamless scheduling experience, reducing missed appointments and confusion.
3. Add Calendar Reminders
Organizers can now provide bulk reminders and make it easier to track all bookings:
Download all bookings at once: Organizers can export a single ICS file containing all scheduled appointments.
Automatic reminders: Attendees who add bookings to their calendars will receive standard calendar notifications.
This helps attendees stay on track and ensures organizers can manage multiple bookings efficiently.
Summary
These updates make scheduling smoother, more flexible, and attendee-friendly by:
Encouraging bookings with easy-to-download calendar invites.
Ensuring time zones are clear and accurate.
Allowing bulk calendar reminders to keep everyone on schedule.
