As a Vibe & GroupWise customer I want the Calendar function support between Vibe and GroupWise to be Bi-Directional so that i Have only to maintain one Calendar and it syncs between the two systems

• This used to be available via the Datasync connector, but the development of Datasync for anything but GMS (Groupwise Mobility Server) appears to have been terminated?

• I vote to get DataSynchronizer back again; I would like to see that solution be used for the ability to synchronize personal contacts between GroupWise/Exchange and Vibe/Filr so those can be leveraged sharing files.

• Can't agree more, it is almost detrimental to have another separate calendar/contacts/task list in Vibe if you/your company have finally managed to get people to use their GroupWise calendar and tasks list in anything like a meaningful way (and that only because they sync to their iPhones and can now replace a hand written diary...).
  
  Work on this please, it would make a difference.

• Strongly Agree

  by: Ahmad Z. | over a year ago

• YES! It goes without saying. Integrate all your products!

• Completely agree it should be part of the users standard calender.

• Is it not a logical that most Vibe users are also GroupWise users? Thus the failure to integrate the GroupWise calendar into Vibe is a serious omission, especially when so many other features are integrated. For this reason our company cannot even consider advocating the use of Vibe Calendars as we are trying to get users to use and share GroupWise calendars

• I had several users requests for this in the past months.
  Situation: Multiple Vibe project servers and spaces each with calendar folders. The internal Groupwise users complain about the missing integration.

• Why Novell release integrations for other players first then our own products? It's all reversed!

• Still very frustrating....

• Frustrating that the current Vibe 4.0.2 Document (Latest as of this comment) makes reference to the Vibe Connector for Datasync, makes you believe you can actually sync vibe calendars to Groupwise, but then it takes you on a wild goose chase with bad information, circular document references, and obsolete software versions that you can't even download. Then you finally talk to support and they give you the runaround about it and basically say sorry, it's not supported even though it's clearly right there in the documentation.
  
  Basically the Vibe Docs state that you can sync Vibe calendars to GroupWise calendars using the Vibe connector to Datasync. But it's not actually even possible unless you want to install a completely outdated and not supported server that cannot even be patched. This is a terrible idea and I can't believe Novell killed this product.
  
  Why not bring this feature back, it's a great idea, and customers want it, especially after you say in your documentation that it can be done. You used to have it, why did you kill it? Please bring it back.

• Every customer with GroupWise and Vibe ( which is every GroupWise customer ) need this.

  by: David K. | over a year ago

• Yes!

• We also use the old DataSync. It´s only in one direction (Vibe to GW), but it´s better than nothing. It must be possible to sync Vibe an GW calendars an contacts. And how nows how long Datasync will work with the new Versions of GW and Vibe
