Outlook Calendar Display for WordPress

Description

This plugin allows you to display your Outlook Calendar on your WordPress site. Scheduling appointments with customers would be so much easier as customers would be able to view available dates and schedule appointments. This will give your company more capacity as you will no longer need to have someone answering the phone and scheduling appointments. Your customers will love the ease of accessing their appointment dates. Let this plugin work for you by creating ease and flexibility.

We have created a shortcode with several configuration options to achieve this functionality.
