I use since years the google calender, since I am travelling often, and cannot always work with VPN. However, also on travels I need to update my calender, and therefore I use the google calender. Before using groupwise, I used thunderbird with the lighntnis calender. Here, it was no problem to synchronise, in both directions, so either I was in my university, or could use VPN and worked via lightning, or I worked via google calender.
Please find a way to realise such a functionality in groupwise calender. If I cannot update a calender when I am travelling, it is not useful. Also, I cannot easily add extern partners to the groupwise calender. In the thunderbird system, I could propose meetings to extern partners, just by a simple calender entry. I am very much missin this feature, since it allowed a very transparent management of meetings. Also, I have a private calender, togehter with the many shared calenders (all for work!) and could see all calenders at the same time - part of them synchronised by extern partners, when necessary. It would be very important, that in modern times groupwise add functionality here. Synchronising software, like already suggestes a year ago in this forum, would do the trick, and it would be great if that was implemented.

Groupwise has all that functionality forever since. Talk to your IT Department to enable it or why they won't let you access your calendar when you're travelling.
Allowing to synch other vendor calendar into GW or vice versa would be very beneficial
