Easy!Appointments is a highly customizable web application that allows your customers to book appointments with you via the web. Moreover, it provides the ability to sync your data with Google Calendar so you can use them with other services.

Easy!Appointments will run smoothly with your existing website, because it can be installed in a single folder of the server and of course, both sites can share the same database.
The project was designed to be flexible and reliable so as to be able to meet the needs of any kind of enterprise. You can read the main features of the system below:
- Full customers and appointments management.
- Services and service providers organization.
- Workflow and booking rules.
- Google Calendar synchronization.
- Email notifications system.
- Standalone installation (like WordPress, Drupal, Joomla and other web systems).
- Translated user interface.
- User community support.

- Copy the "easyappointments" source folder on your server.
