Our company, OCD, have been using desktop calendar for a long time since its establishment. While it is visually friendly, it is very difficult to update the work shedule of our consultants who are always far aways from the head office.
The idea of an online scheduling system come up to my mind for a long time, but I cannot find a good free solution for it until Google launch the Google Calendar Sync. With a bit of trial, we have set up a online scheduling system which any one can have one the computer Outlook which tradditionally used for mail only.
A combination of Outlook (for setting the calendar offline), Outlook Desktop (for putting the calendar from Outlook to the desktop with a broader view – more events even with month view), Google Calendar using a company share account (as the central online point for synchronization) and Google Sync for syncing calendar between the Google account and different consultants’ laptops.
As a results, all of our consultants can create their own working shedule on the company shared calendar any where, any time with a Internet connection. Even without Internet connection, they can also make the schedule on their Outlook offline, then it will automatic synchronization whenever the Internet connection is available.
This is one several application of technology that work in our company.
