What's the difference between a reminder and a notification?
Reminders serve to alert you before an event starts, while notifications inform you about changes and updates related to an event.
Leverage automated notifications for more productive meetings
Customize your sender email addresses
Update the email addresses you use to send notifications and receive replies from invitees, and add other email addresses as CCs to gain complete visibility over the emails you send and receive from customers.

Email or SMS workflows
Create workflows with Zoho Bookings to send notifications, reminders, and follow-ups for your meetings. Plus, using custom functions to automate tasks with other applications when the appointment status is changed.
You can automate three types of emails when an invitee books an appointment with you:
- Notifications: Notify your team members and invitees via automated emails, SMS, or both when appointments are booked, completed, cancelled, rescheduled, or unattended.
- Reminders: Send automated reminders via email, SMS, or both to your team members and invitees days, hours, or minutes before the meeting starts.
- Follow-ups: Once a meeting is completed, you can follow-up with your customers on various intervals. Choose from our pre-loaded templates, or even create a new one.
