Scheduling Meetings in Outlook with Rackspace Email

Filed in by Rex Card | October 20, 2009 4:01 am

With the smell of freshly brewed coffee in the air, I open up Microsoft Outlook and head straight to my calendar to start scheduling meetings. Being a technical project manager, part of my job includes scheduling meetings—and in any given session, I easily schedule 5+ meetings for 15+ folks.

When scheduling a meeting, it is, of course, important to find a time when everyone can meet. Microsoft Exchange[1] customers are already familiar with using Outlook to schedule a meeting based on others’ schedules. But, did you know that Rackspace Email[2] customers can use Outlook to do that, too?

With Sync for Outlook[3], I can easily sync my co-workers’ 65+ calendars, adding them to my Outlook. And because I use Automatic Sync, I don’t even need to push a button—it automatically syncs the data in the background, so I can go on with my work. Since my Outlook calendar data is kept up-to-date, I’m always ready whenever I need to schedule a meeting that will work for everyone.
