Calendar and Address Book

  • In order to make the calendar and address book work for outlook, you will need a third party plugin. Here is a list of compatible ones, though each has it's limitations, and none has been tested in production by us:
    • http://ical.gutentag.ch
      • Tested in Outlook 2010: this program works well, but was confusing to setup and not entirely intuitive to use; Is also paid only! There is a trial.
    • http://www.cfos.de/en/index.htm
      • Tested in Outlook 2016: Seemed easy enough to set up and sync the CalDAV calendar, is relatively slow on first sync. Only supports up to Outlook 2016 at the most.
    • https://caldavsynchronizer.org/
      • Tested in Outlook 2016, very easy to set up and configure. Says it supports office 365 but currently we have no way of testing that.
