Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Apple iCloud Calendar (iCal) to keep track and schedule appointments. The overall look and feel is sleeker than any other calendar system out there. I use a Mac and have an iPhone and feel as though the notifications and calendar view work seamlessly with my devices. It also syncs with my location to show all major holidays.

Pros and Cons

Easy to use
Integrates well with other devices
Notifications and alerts are tied to other apple devices

Sometimes I get multiple alerts for one event

Alternatives Considered

Google Calendar and Calendly

I prefer iCal for it’s overall design. Many of my colleagues use Google Calendar because it is more common across other organizations. I’ve also used Calendly in the past, which can tie into other calendar systems to help schedule appointments. The overall experience with iCal is by far my favorite.
