A Microsoft Bookings alternative for teams that drive to their customers
Microsoft Bookings comes with many Microsoft 365 plans and fits teams that already work in Outlook and Teams. When you drive to your customers, the question isn't only whether someone is free, but where they'll be just before and just after.
Every fact about Microsoft Bookings on this page comes from its own website, checked on October 18, 2026.
What Microsoft Bookings does well
- Already included if your business has one of the Microsoft 365 plans that come with it.
- Outlook calendars and a Microsoft Teams link in each booking, for staff who live in Microsoft 365.
- Services with several staff members, email confirmations and reminders, and custom questions on the booking page.
Where it stops when you drive between visits
- Travel time is a buffer you set for each service. It's the same before every appointment, whether the customer is next door or an hour away.
- It offers the times your staff are free without looking at where their other visits are that day.
- It doesn't put a day's visits in driving order, or invite customers when a recurring visit is due.

Switching from Microsoft Bookings to Qouh
- Import your customers from a CSV or Excel file, or let them come in through your new booking page.

- Share your new booking link where your old one was: your website, your emails, your van.
Questions
Can I bring my Bookings setup over?
Not automatically. You set up your appointment types once, which takes a few minutes, import your customers from a CSV or Excel file and share your new booking link.
Does Qouh do Teams meetings?
No. Qouh is made for visits at the customer's place. If most of your appointments are Teams calls, Microsoft Bookings will suit you better.
Can I see my visits in Outlook?
Yes: Qouh gives each person a private calendar feed that Outlook can subscribe to. It shows your visits; it doesn't read your Outlook busy times. Google Calendar connects both ways.

Type the stops of a day you know well and see how much driving the planned order saves. Free, no account needed.
