For me the hugest update is being able to control browser notification.
Pros:Much cleaner UI.
Cons:None yet. Haven't used it long enough.
I am not a fan of gmail or google calendar. Outlook is so much better; however, my company decided to go with gmail, etc.
Pros:it's attached to gmail
Cons:Outlook calendar is so much better
With the updated makeover, iCal is now a cousin; that is, the facelift is reminiscent of iCal's UI. That's not a bad thing! G-Cal was long overdue a makeover and it's a welcome update; hugely welcome. The Wow factor is there and, functionally, it's still one of the few, easiest, mindless, & cross-integrated productivity tools in its space. It just works!
*I've been using it longer than 1-year but the option for 1yr+ wasn't available.
Pros:It's completely functional.
Cons:It used to be ugly.
Hoping the cons can be cleaned up.
Pros:Looks great.
Cons:Dragging and dropping tasks between days does not work. Why are events mixed with tasks in the day's list.
