Home visit scheduling

Appointment scheduling for home visit businesses

For any business delivered at a customer address, availability depends on more than an empty calendar. CalMov checks whether the service and its surrounding journeys can fit into the working day.

Common scheduling problems

The calendar hides distance

Two free hours can mean very different things depending on the previous and next addresses.

Coverage boundaries are unclear

Ad hoc decisions about distant enquiries make the diary harder to control.

Manual slot approval slows booking

Every address check adds messages and delays before a customer can confirm.
