  • Get started with Zoho Calendar
  • Features you'll enjoy in Zoho Calendar
    • Customize timed alerts
    • Create and integrate multiple calendars
    • Private calendars
    • Sync your calendars across multiple platforms
  • Comparison between Google Calendar and Zoho Calendar features

Get started with Zoho Calendar

You can access Zoho Calendar by logging in to calendar.zoho.com using your Workplace account credentials. To use Zoho Calendar from your Workplace dashboard, log in to workplace.zoho.com and navigate to Zoho Mail from the header. Click on Calendar from the left pane of the Zoho Mail window.

Features You'll Enjoy in Zoho Calendar

Zoho calendar enables you to create events, invite users, manage group calendars, and share and subscribe to calendars, all from a single interface. Some of the salient features that you'll enjoy in Zoho Calendar are given below:

Customize timed alerts

Create reminders for specific calendars and receive notifications for new events in those calendars. You can receive RSVP status updates and reminder notifications for events as emails or pop-up notifications in Zoho Calendar. You can also turn off the buzz if it's hindering your productivity by limiting the number of notifications you receive for a certain period of time.

Create and integrate multiple calendars

Multiple calendars can be created and integrated to separate business and personal events, and manage them all in one place for effective planning. Zoho calendar gives you the flexibility to manage multiple calendars from a single interface using the following methods.

  • You can pick the URL of a public calendar and add it to Zoho Calendar.
  • Subscribe to a colleague's calendar using their email address and get notified about their agenda.
  • Keep track of the observed holidays in your country by subscribing to as many holiday calendars as you'd like.
  • You can import the calendars as files or use a calendar's URL to get notifications about the events listed on all of your calendars.

Private calendars

You can give a colleague or a group, permission to view a private calendar. Use your calendar's private address to share it with a dedicated group of people and send them updates about your upcoming plans. You can also stop people from accessing a shared private calendar by resetting that calendar's private URL. This way you can avoid data leaks and prevent people from getting a hold of your private information.

Sync your calendars across multiple platforms

Create and handle events in Zoho Calendar right from your mobile device, even when you're on the move, by syncing using Exchange ActiveSync. You can sync Zoho Calendar with your MacBook, iPhone, iPad, Thunderbird Lightning, and eM Client accounts using CalDAV sync. Zoho CalSync enables you to keep your calendar in sync with your Android device. You can also make changes to your schedule on synced calendars even when you're not connected to the internet. Updates will be synchronized with your respective calendars once you go online.
