The shareable online calendar by Google

Spend less time planning and more time doing with a shareable calendar that works across Google Workspace.
I'm relieved and pleased to see Google updating some of their core applications. I have committed my young company to the world of G Suite and am responsible for administration and training. I see the updates as xolid improvements - staring with Gmail.
Pros:Cleaner, contemporary interface
Cons:Not sure if I like the event editing functionality offered as well as the old just yet.
I've started using the new google calendar for about a year now and I can't imagine living without it.
Pros:- Clear way of planning your week
- Clear widget for android users
Cons:- Customization is, to some features, limited. For example: you can't add pictures to an event
In the weekly view, the time slot numbers are too small to read comfortably. The date numbers are unnecessarily HUGE. They distract from the actual calendar contents and lead to unnecessary scrolling.
The UI scheme is very garish. Looks like children went wild with a pack of crayons. The parsing function is much weaker.
So, I've stopped using Google Calendar, after being a user for many years. I now use MineTime, a desktop app which can pull from multiple web calendars, so that I don't have to deal with the horrible, dysfunctional UI. MineTime is also much better at parsing than GCal.
The GCal team really ruined an excellent product with this new version. The Google Calendar forum is full of users complaining about the new version.
I give this version an "F", only because a lower grade isn't available.
Pros:Can't think of any
Cons:Very badly designed UI
