Appointment-Plus Scheduling Software Expands Within Enterprises, Large and Medium-Sized Businesses

Nov. 15, 2011 - PRLog -- In the world of online scheduling software, not all applications are created equally. While some may offer similar functionality, most lack the flexibility, scalability, support and advanced features important to enterprise companies, corporations and large and medium-sized businesses. These organizations demand a proven scheduling solution that’s configurable to their unique and specific scheduling needs. For a growing number of Fortune 500 companies, enterprise-level organizations and large and medium-sized businesses, that application is Appointment-Plus, which is why the worldwide experts in online scheduling solutions have begun a rapid expansion into this specialized industry.

The leading provider of online appointment software for over 10 years, Appointment-Plus (http://www.appointment-plus.com) offers the most feature-rich application used by over 5,000 organizations to automate, streamline and improve their appointment- and reservation-booking procedures.
