Publisher's Description
From BusyMac:
BusyCal is our new product that combines a beautiful, personal desktop calendar with our award winning calendar sharing and syncing technology -- in one integrated application. Designed for families and small workgroups, BusyCal allows users to easily and cost-effectively share calendars on a local area network and over the internet without the need for a dedicated server, and to sync with Google Calendar. Shared calendars can be viewed and edited by multiple users and changes are instantly synchronized between users. In addition to calendar syncing, BusyCal also provides the ability to enter and view event details in a non-modal floating window or an embedded info pane; create To Dos, including recurring To Dos, that display in the calendar and auto-forward until completed; display events in several customizable views including a List View and scrolling Month and Week Views; display graphics, sticky notes, live weather feeds and moon phases in your calendar; apply custom font styles and colors to events; and display alarms in a window and on the menu bar. Plus a whole host of under the hood performance improvements. BusyCal syncs with the iPhone, MobileMe, and just about any other application or device that supports Sync Services. And its backward compatible with BusySync too.
What's new in this version:
- Fixed bug that would cause conflicts to occur when syncing with Google.
- Fixed bug that prevented organizer from updating a meeting on iCloud.
- Fixed incompatibility with alarms that have no sound on Lion iCal Server.
- Localization changes.

"Solved my Frustration with iCal"
Version: BusyCal 1.6.2
Pros
Displays Calendar better then iCal.
Customize the calendar display including the font face and size. (For me this was the swinger to buy it).
Drag-n-drop contacts, emails, and more.
BusyCal performs automatic backups of your data.
Works with iCloud (Have not done that yet but will). Etc.Cons
You will have a hard time finding a Con with BusyCal. I haven't yet. So NONE.
Summary
My needs are simple. I am an old guy and wanted to be able to Color text and , most of all, have the ability to increase the size of text. I have searched many option and getting totally frustrated with Apple on this one.
BusyCal may be a bit expensive for my needs but after using it , it relieved all my frustration of iCal. So , to me, it was worth every penny. -
"You will NEVE want to use iCal again."
Version: BusyCal 1.6.2
Pros
Easy to use and syncs with everything I have wanted it to sync with.
Cons
Very cumbersome trying to add icons to monthly calendar events which is VERY important to me.
What I can and can't print, like a list of for example my appointments with a particular person over X number of years would be nice. If this is available, I haven't figured out how to do it yet.Summary
Please support the BusyCal people so they don't go away.
This is the best calendar program I have found out there for a Mac.
Every friend i have told about it, now owns it.
