Calendar Plus Web Part lets you keep company's events and initiatives on track and up-to-date.

Visually communicate date-based list data through several useful views: Day, Week, Work Week, Month, Quarter, Year and Gantt. Show events, tasks, milestones, project initiatives, legacy data, or employee vacation plans, to name a few.

Use a SharePoint List, a SQL Server Table or View, or aggregated views created by our List Rollup Web Part as the data source for your calendar items.

Display calendar items by the list column of your choice, apply color-coding, apply a custom or list view filter to the calendar items, and display holidays stored in a separate list.

In addition, configure the Gantt View to display project task information along with percent complete and milestone indicators.

The Calendar Plus Web Part also provides support for several languages including Spanish, French, Italian, and German.

Unable to view Calendar Plus on a Web Part page

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful
I've used this web part on teamsite pages with no issue, but I have been unable to use a Bamboo Calendar Plus web part on a web part page successfully.

Everything appears fine to the creator but no one else can view the calendar. Clicking on a URL to the Web Part Page returns a 404 to all users except the creator. We're still trying to figure out how to resolve this issue.

Product Reviews

Pros I like the way it displays details with a mouseover. Eliminates having to open a calendar item to see details.
Cons Users can't view the calendar in a web part page.

Pros Easy install

Use roll ups in calendars
Good price
Fast
Easy to figure out
Cons Looks like an add in and not part of the site
No ability to make alterations to the code
A lot of options for end users - Confusing

Bamboo Calendar Plus WebPart a Plus

Product Reviews

Pros We have used the Bamboo Webpart for several years and it has helped us create calendar views that are easy to read while providing additional information our projects needed. One of the most used items is the ability to color code calendar entries. This makes more complicated calendars usable by many different groups.
Cons The calendar is a little difficult to show end users to setup the first time. This is likely due to the many options the calendar provides. However, once they learn all the options, they are able to setup calendars on thier own.

Colour Coded Appointments

0 of 1 people found the following review helpful
Great for making your shared Calendar more useable on SharePoint. The benefit of being able to colour code similar types of appointments makes it a purchase worth making.
