Some calendar applications allow you to sync information with a mobile device.

Calendar software can help a person more effectively manage his time by accurately scheduling events and reminders. Calendar software is often part of a larger information management suite that interconnects with email. Calendar software can be online or desktop-based.

  1. Sharing

    • If you would like to be able to share your calendar with other people, choose a calendar application that supports sharing. Sharing can be read-only access or change access. Some online calendar applications, such as 30 Boxes, allow users to share events or whole calendars with other users.

    Tasks

    • Choose a calendar application that includes "tasks" if you prefer having a digital "to do" list that allows you to check off when a task has been completed. For example, Microsoft Outlook integrates a tasks feature with its calendar.

    Sync

    • Synchronization allows a user to take his calendar information with him on a mobile device. Some online and offline calendars offer mobile syncing, while others do not. Google Calendar offers this feature for free for several devices. If you require this feature, choose a calendar application that supports syncing for your device.
