Send iCalendar Schedules as Email Attachments

You will now additionally receive an ICS file as an attachment with the email notification each time you book a meeting room or desk or create a new invite. With it, you can easily import the schedule to your iCalendar, Outlook Calendar, or Google Calendar to enjoy a more seamless experience.

Invite Group Visitors

Now you can create group invites on the Yeastar Visitor Management System. As you click the INVITE button on the top left, you will see a dropdown letting you choose whether you’re inviting an individual visitor or a group visitor.

The best part about this new feature is that you don’t have to register everyone individually if you need to invite a large group of people. Only one key contact (or the group leader) needs to be added to the system, and the rest of the group can register themselves using a registration link. Fast, easy, and hassle-free!
