Calgoo Software Offers Its Mac Programs for Free

Calgoo Software, a provider of calendar sync and share solutions, has announced that all of its products, which include Calendar, Connect, and Hub, will be FREE as of July 22, (noon, Pacific). That's today!

"Over the past two years, Calgoo Software has been developing the most complete calendar suite on the market," the company confidently states, having rolled out a full-featured desktop calendar program, the only Google Calendar sync solution that works with both iCal & Outlook, and the world's first cross platform calendar sharing service. "We are also working behind the scenes on our new in-calendar advertising models and are close to releasing these," Calgoo says.

Calgoo Calendar allows you to easily manage multiple calendars and schedules, tasks and contacts. This can be done both online and offline, using Calgoo Calendar. The software lets you create and share your own calendars and schedules, but also to synchronize with other calendars. The calendar is mostly aimed at organizations and people who need to manage business, family and social commitments, but you can give it a shot yourself right now. And why wouldn't you since it's free!

The Calendar app has also been updated, fixing a number of issues with reminders. The snooze behavior has been modified to allow for a more natural use and now you can alter your snooze times even when Calgoo Calendar does not have focus. Requirements call for Java 1.5 or higher.

Calgoo Hub is a calendar sharing service that connects people with calendars of family, friends and colleagues. Using Calgoo Hub, you can share calendars with family and friends, collaborate with Outlook, iCal, Google & more, preview agenda online or from mobile phone, keep your PC and Mac in sync effectively, control privacy and free/busy access online, and copy your calendar content online.

Calgoo Hub supports:

- Attendees and attendee status
- Invitations
- Reminders
- Tags and categories
- Timezones
- Recurrence and recurrence exceptions
- Event level privacy settings
- Free/busy

Calgoo Connect allows Mac users to skip the fuss of migrating to a new platform. Even after making the big switch, Calgoo Connect allows you to continue using Outlook Calendar, Google Calendar, Apple iCal or 30 Boxes, while synchronizing with your colleagues on the other system.

Calgoo Connect runs in the background and automatically syncs your Google or 30 Boxes calendars with Outlook and Apple's own iCal. Sharing calendar with friends via Calgoo Hub makes cross-platform sharing easy.

Calgoo assures existing paid subscribers that they will still receive full email support in addition to the forum support all users have access to, for the duration of their license. Each Calgoo product has its own revamped section on the Calgoo official website. These sections provide users with more concise information on the products, as well as a more organized workflow.
