1. Highlight: Managing availability
Managing staff availability and scheduling is a challenge for many organizations, from research teams to training providers, from small businesses to global organizations. It’s a challenge for non-profits, too, who need to keep up with volunteer availability but often lack an integrated calendar to do so. Each group has their own way of working and communicating, their own structure and priorities. But they all need a secure calendar that’s user-friendly so they can stay updated on staff availability or volunteer availability, while scheduling the right people for jobs and events.
Check out these use cases with Teamup as an integrated calendar and efficient system for managing availability and scheduling

2. Use case: Facility scheduling
Golf and social clubs often function as event venues for tournaments, clinics, corporate meetings, and private events. Besides the courses, they also have other facilities like the club house and dining areas. These can be booked together with golf events or separately.
For course managers and event organizers, it’s a challenge to handle scheduling and communication for these events. Teamup is here to help. Learn how to simplify facility scheduling for easier golf course event management, happier staff, and satisfied guests.

3. Feature highlight: Event comments for easier group planning
There’s more to scheduling group events than putting them on the calendar. You might need to get input, share instructions, collaborate on decisions, or gather feedback.
And that’s where things get challenging.
In many situations, group coordinators need input on upcoming events. But it’s still important to keep people from making unauthorized changes to the calendar. Event comments make it possible to have both: group input and a secure calendar.
4. Featured template: Multi-location business manager
Use this template to create a new calendar for managing business operations in multiple locations. You can start with one or two locations and scale as you grow by adding as many more sub-calendars, organizing them in folders, and customizing access for team members.
