Slots booked through Microsoft Bookings land in teachers' Outlook calendars, and Virto Calendar App shows them next to rooms and school events. | ## Related products Explore how our set of productivity tools can transform your task management - [Virto Calendar App M365](https://www.virtosoftware.com/microsoft-365/virto-calendar-overlay-app/): Consolidate events from SharePoint, Exchange, Google, and more into one calendar view for simplified planning. - [Virto Kanban Board App](https://www.virtosoftware.com/microsoft-teams/virto-kanban-board-app/): Boost team productivity with Virto Kanban for Teams: a seamless, efficient task & project management tool. - [Virto Kanban Board App](https://www.virtosoftware.com/microsoft-365/virto-kanban-board-app/): This tool transforms team collaboration through visual task management for consistent stage-by-stage progress. ## Related use cases Discover our range of use cases to take your planning and coordination to another level ![Event Calendar](https://www.virtosoftware.com/images/use-cases/corporate-events-calendar.webp) ### Event Calendar Effortlessly plan and execute corporate meetings and events with our feature-rich calendar.
