Multiple Calendar Reminders
I am looking at Office 365 as a viable alternative to Google Apps. One of the most useful features of Google Calendar is that I can have multiple reminders specified. So for instance my default is to receive a reminder 2 weeks ahead, 1 week ahead, 2 days ahead and 2 hours ahead.
I can only see an option for one reminder on the Office 365 calendar and can't see how to add more. This is a serious omission. A basic calendar requirement in my opinion.

I need both multiple reminders and email reminders. It's not my first choice, but I will need to find an alternative calendar the provides the functionality that I need.

Please add this option to the beta that you have in the non beta. Very useful and almost a deal breaker for me. Don't want to leave outlook. With so many calendar events in my life for work and personal, having multiple reminders helps ensure I don't miss an event. More importantly that I do not miss being prepared for an event.

Ability to add email and multiple reminders to calendar removed from the format. I've no problem with new feature but detest when you are constantly taking away useful features! Or making them impossible to find. I will stay with Classic.

Calendar: Could we have queuing options for reminders greater than 1 day and less than 1 week?

It’s time that Outlook calendar at least gets on par with the Google Calendar.
Why ain’t there an option to set up default reminders for each calendar. Perhaps I would like to have 30 min set on my personal calendar and 1 hour for a shared one.
Also it’s time to fix the “Family Calendar” once and for all. If I add an event to it and set the reminder to 30 mins before, it still shows up for the other family members without any reminder at all. And that is even if they have set a default reminder in their accounts.
So Outlook, are you competent enough to spread some love to the Outlook Calendar to make it useful again. Because right now it can’t be used at all.
Please don’t make me jump the ship completely and go for Googles version instead.

This is available in the non beta and was asked for months ago, like almost a year. I still don't know why they changed the calendar reminders in the beta.

Just a few suggestions:
- Allow for multiple reminders for calendar events. Google calendar allows this but outlook does not.
- Option to delete people's birthdays that show up on the calendar - Not sure why some birthdays do not have the option to delete the event.Feedback:
Loving the dark mode! -

The main thing keeping me from using the beta (which I love using for the dark theme and still clean look) is the "more options" menu available in the default calendar setting. I like having a whole screen that I can use to edit everything all at once, add notes, etc.
I'd also like to have an option to add more than one reminder for each type (email & notification). I usually have to drive an hour to get to events I attend, so my reminders are set for an hour or more before the event. However, I'd also like to be notified 15 minutes or so prior to the start of the event so that I know better where I need to be when. Currently the only way to set multiple reminders is one email and one notification reminder.

I started trying the beta. I am very concerned that calendar events in the beta lacks ability to send multiple reminders and email reminders. These are essential to me. Also tailoring repeat events is also very limited. Please put them back.

There was no option to set multiple reminder (email, phone) to events in the new Beta version. I really liked that feature. :(

No way show reminder is completed without deleting, to add more than one additional reminder to the reminder (date/day) wise.

Calendar: I like the display for the Beta Caleenday. I don't like the fact that I can't add a second or third reminder. I also cannot add notes to that calendar. I hope these will be provided in the future

We need to continue to have an option for MORE THAN ONE email reminder for an event!
