Installing the eTASK.Outlook Room Booking add-in preserves Outlook’s standard room booking functionality. This means you can add rooms to a meeting as usual—for example, via the Scheduling Assistant using the “Add Rooms...” button—without using the eTASK.Outlook Room Booking add-in.
This approach may be slightly faster, but it can also lead to problems. This table shows you the advantages of booking a room via the add-in and highlights when adding a room using Outlook’s standard functionality can cause issues.
| Adding a room with the eTASK.Outlook Room Booking add-in | Adding a room without the eTASK.Outlook Room Booking add-in |
|---|---|---|
Rooms that are no longer available are actually no longer bookable | yes | No |
The room meets your criteria | yes | only if you know the room exactly |
You can view the room’s amenities and a detailed description of the room | Yes | No |
You can order catering | Yes | no |
We therefore recommend that you use the eTASK.Outlook Room Booking add-in and avoid using the standard functionality to assign a room to a meeting.
