ExpressionEngine users have clamored for a good calendar solution for years, and now it’s here. The Solspace Calendar module is the first true calendar module for EE.
Tired of hacky workarounds to emulate calendar-like behavior in EE? Throw ‘em out. The Calendar module offers up both power and simplicity, giving you all kinds of options to satisfy your calendar needs. Need a simple display of daily activities? It’s easy with Calendar. How about a monthly calendar? No sweat. And what if you want to fully control every table, div, and class that makes up the HTML that will become your calendar? The Calendar module can do that, too.
The Calendar module utilizes the power of EE’s native Channel module. Every calendar and every event you create can therefore feature as many custom fields and categories as you like. If you can do it to an entry in EE, you can do it to a calendar or event.
Events in Calendar can recur using all kinds of customizable rules. Need weekly events? No problem. Got a book club that meets on the 3rd Tuesday of every month? Easy. How about a meeting on the first Monday, third Wednesday, and fifth Tuesday, but never on the 1st, 15th, or 31st of the month? Yeah, Calendar can do that, too. (But you should really think about simplifying your meeting schedules!)
Last but not least, the Calendar module can even import and export ICS data. That’s right, you can import from and export to other calendar applications like Google Calendar, iCal, Outlook, and more

This add-on is extremely buggy, and I have encountered many walls in regards to stated functionality. If you came to this add-on hoping to work with ICS data in or out, you will be very disappointed. Solspace is not prioritizing the numerous fixes needed.

Solspace’s calendar is a great tool for EE. It’s not overly intuitive however, and does require a little extra work to get used to it. I think once it’s integrated with SafeCracker it’s going to be incredible. Definitely the best calendar tool for the job in EE.

It’s all in how you use it. This thing is so flexible, and solspace is only improving it. A great product, albeit like all solspace addons- expect that flexibility to come at the cost of implementation- you will spend some time setting up your templates for sure.

Sorely needed and a beautiful, intuitive interface. It has a bit of a learning curve, and a minor bug involving Playa 3, which will likely be ironed out in the next update (right now the way to get around these is with an ‘embed’ method). Great support on this module, too.

Something EE has needed for ages, especially for church websites. Has bags of potential but I’ve still been having real issues with the ics export to Google Calendar and Outlook and disappointed doesn’t work as expected at present.

Incredibly powerful module for ExpressionEngine that was sorely needed. Thank goodness Solspace tackled this one, because calendars and events are not an easy beast to tame in a CMS. Fortunately, they did an excellent job with the ability to create very complex rules for repeating events. Excellent!
