BusySync 2.1.8

Keep iCal calendars in sync on a network.

****½

BusySync allows multiple users to share and edit iCal calendars on a local area network and sync iCal with Google Calendar. BusySync is a Mac OS X System Preference Pane that runs in the background and adds calendar sharing capabilities to iCal. Leveraging Apple Sync Services and Bonjour, calendar events created in iCal are instantly synchronized with other iCal users on the network and with Google Calendar.

  • Google Calendar Synchronization - Sync iCal with Google Calendar for online read-write access to your calendars from any computer, anywhere.
  • Bonjour networking - BusySync automatically synchronizes calendars with others on your local area network. No dedicated servers or complicated network settings to configure. It just works.
  • Multi-user editing - BusySync allows multiple users to share and edit calendars with full read-write access. Changes made by one user are instantly synchronized with all others on the network.
  • Security - Calendars can be password protected to provide users with read-write or read-only access. SSL encryption keeps your data private when syncing on the LAN or with Google.
  • Offline access - Changes made to a calendar while disconnected from your home or office network are automatically synchronized when you reconnect to the network.

I bought this app some time ago, you know, when you couldn't sync your Google Calendar with your iCal, without any help of a third party app. It's working nicely. But now, if you only want to sync between Google and iCal, there is an official free way to do it. I don't see there is any reason at all to spend another $15 on this. Besides, if I'm not mistaken, in case you want to sync between multiple computers, you have to buy multiple copies of the software, kind of like a hidden fee. Not good! Not good!

I've been using this now for several months to sync a work laptop with my home iMac and I have to say it is a fantastic piece of software (but yes, you do need a licence for both machines). Developers are responsive and constantly working to improve software. Recommended if you have a need to sync two machines

I tried this app a few months ago and it did not sync reminders/alerts. Better check before buying.

This was looking like a useful app until I realised you need a copy for each machine you want to sync - that would work out too expensive in my house! How about a home licence?

Been very curious about this, I'm considering adding a desktop to my setup and need to share calendars between them and my wife's machine.

No application is easy and perfect like this. Configuration doesn't need any knowledge.

Very good.

Google Calendar? Great! Buying two licences for two machines I have? Not that great...

It would be interesting to know what this software can do that is not covered by Google Calendar's ability to sync with iCal. Other than that I think it's excessive to have to pay one license per computer on your local network.
