I use EteSync both at my company and personal life to share events with the team or with my wife, and to manage my contacts and tasks on my "no Google allowed" phone.
I can integrate with calcurse[1] to stay up to date during the day or with aerc[2] when I need to send an email to someone, because they include a Dav bridge[3], but I can also integrate it with the GNOME environment because a module for evolution exists[4].
Plus, the developer[5] has been genuinely nice and handled all support, and billing questions like a champ, in a speedy manner, and always in a polite tone.
My only problem with EteSync so far is that sharing an event can only be done through the web application right now, so I need to switch from calcurse to a browser, share the event, and then come back. Minor issue in the grand scheme of things, though.
Well worth the price, in my opinion. Might be one of the few services that I do not migrate to a self-hosted instance instead.

- mssundaram 6y agoThanks!
- tasn 6y agoThanks for the kind words! (EteSync developer here) Sharing: you can also do sharing from all of the apps (e.g. Android), but yeah, you can't share from 3rd party apps (yet!).
