Why sync to Google Calendar?

Add Calendars to Your Web Site. Embed a FileMaker calendar on your website using Google widgets. Learn how.

Support More Users. Google Calendar is cross platform can be used from almost any browser on Mac or Windows.

Google Loves Android Phones. Work with your FileMaker Events from within the built in calendar on your Droid smartphone (or from your iPhone and iPad calendars).

Add Google Calendars to your iPhone for Push (instant) Notification. Now that you have Google calendar working, you may want to connect to your FileMaker Server this way instead of directly.
