Sync Multiple Calendars with Multical
When you're a fractional, consultant, or portfolio careerist with multiple calendars to manage, you may want to take syncing a step further.
Just because you can see your availability doesn't mean that other people can.
Calendar sync defined
Let's start by teasing out the difference between calendar syncing and calendar sharing.
When you share your Google, Outlook, and iCloud calendars with each other, only you can see the events. People will see you as free in Microsoft Scheduling Assistant or Google Find a Time and double book you.
When you sync your calendars, Multical copies the events over in real-time so that people see your true availability.
One way vs two-way sync
With a one-way sync, Calendar A gets updated whenever an event is added to Calendar B.
With a two-way sync, Calendar A gets updated whenever an event is added to Calendar B, and Calendar B gets updated whenever an event is added to Calendar A.
