D-PHYS Calendar (SOGo)
This is a new service currently in beta. Please let us know if you encounter any issues.
Sogo is the current candidate for a new D-PHYS calendar solution. It offers sync via both CalDAV and ActiveSync and supports LDAP groups.
In comparison to our existing eGroupware solution it provides a number of features eGroupware is missing:
- multiple calendars per account
- public calendars that can be freely shared or integrated into a web page
- LDAP group support. This means you can address the same group of people that have access to your group share
- integration of web calendars (.ics)
- also the web interface is more streamlined and less distracting
Of course, there's also ID's Exchange email/calendar solution. That one is a valid solution as long as you're in a pure Windows/Outlook environment, but it lacks some features that Sogo offers:
- calendar sync via CalDAV (not just ActiveSync)
- allow shared calendars to be synced
