Starfish Two-Way Integration with Microsoft® Outlook®

So you’ve decided to give students what they want – scheduling appointments via the Web. Terrific!

This should also make the lives of your advisors, counselors, and tutors easier – because they won’t have to take as many calls or emails simply to schedule appointments.  

Sound great?  Advisors, instructors, tutors and counselors like giving students a convenient way to schedule time, but don't want the complexity of managing two calendars:  an online appointment calendar for students and a personal calendar.  Two separate calendars leads to confusion and aggravation. 

Stop the Madness:  Get Your Schedules Together with Starfish CONNECT

With Starfish CONNECT, students can schedule time on the Web, which is automatically forwarded to the online calendar for the advisor, instructor, tutor or counselor. Need to cancel an appointment? Do it directly through Microsoft® Outlook®! Starfish CONNECT support includes Microsoft® Outlook®, iCal®, Gmail™, Yahoo™, Lotus Notes® and Novell® GroupWise®. The system also allow others (e.g., office assistant) to manage advisors’ schedules, create and edit office hours and setup and cancel appointments.

Most appointment schedulers don’t even post to your online calendar. Starfish is the only system that:

  • Sends calendar items automatically to your online calendar.
  • Prevents double-booking by automatically recognizing when time is already taken in your online calendar.
  • Allows you to cancel Starfish appointments directly from your online calendar.
