Twilio, a cloud communications platform that has virtualized the world’s telecommunications infrastructure through APIs, enables businesses to embed communications channels such as voice, text, chat and video into their customer experiences.

BookingBug’s integration with Yext will keep customers’ information up to date, enabling Yext customers to sync locations stored in Yext with BookingBug for quick and easy onboarding and maintenance. While Yext will remain the source of true location data, BookingBug’s Location Importer will keep the information in sync.

“The integration of Yext and BookingBug will benefit customers with a single user experience when it comes to managing their brand and appointment data. This will ensure that our customers’ customers can easily book appointments and RSVP to events directly on event pages, and always know exactly where they are going for an appointment,” said Marc Ferrentino, Chief Strategy Officer at Yext.
