Ask HN: Calendar/event manager that doesn't suck?

10 点作者 MTemer将近 9 年前
I want to create events with a time and date, assign participants and automatically notify them via e-mail (or SMS) a day before. I don&#x27;t want them to have to download any app or create an user account. And it should work with any kind of e-mail (Gmail, Outlook, custom domain). I would manually manage the name, e-mail and phone number of each person. It would be acceptable, though, for the user to create an account if he wants to check the full calendar with the e-mail he was invited. Just not for the notification and confirmation stuff.<p>So far I tried:<p>- Outlook.com: slow, heavy cache problems, events failing to be created, most e-mail notifications don&#x27;t get delivered (maybe they need to be in my contact list or have exchanged e-mails with me? some kind of anti-spam?), if Gmail users click on Yes&#x2F;No&#x2F;Maybe I get &quot;550 Requested action not taken: mailbox unavailable&quot;. Tried both with a custom domain and a new @outlook.com account. I couldn&#x27;t believe how shitty this thing is.<p>- Zoho: terrible UI, and I couldn&#x27;t even get the confirmation e-mail delivered. It doesn&#x27;t even hit my Gmail spam folder. How can I trust it to deliver notifications?<p>- Gmail: Like Outlook, user needs a Google Account to be able to reply Yes&#x2F;No&#x2F;Maybe, or to view the events.<p>- Trello: Doesn&#x27;t work for this use case.<p>Any suggestions? If I need to self-host this thing in 2016 I might give up on the internet.

I&#x27;m from the Zoho marketing team. Embarrassed at the poor impression we have left you with while trying to use our service. We&#x27;d really like to connect with you and learn where we slipped. Will be great if you can reach out to us at support@zohocalendar.com with subject &quot;Ref: Post on HN on issues with your Calendar app&quot;.

What about something Evite, Eventbrite, or even Meetup.com?

My friend and I were just talking about this yesterday. I was surprised when he said he couldn&#x27;t find a suitable solution.
