Useful booking fields
The extension adds useful fields to calendar events so workshop bookings can include the customer and vehicle information garages genuinely need, laid out in a much more practical format.
Turn Google Calendar into a practical workshop diary for the motor trade.
GoCal Garage was created as a minimalist and cost-effective alternative to larger garage management platforms that often come with excessive complexity and inflated pricing. Instead of replacing familiar systems, GoCal Garage works alongside Google Calendar to deliver practical features garages genuinely use every day.
GoCal Garage enhances Google Calendar with tools designed specifically for the UK motor trade, helping garages manage bookings, customer details, vehicle information, messaging, and everyday workshop administration.
