Sync Outlook -> Google Calendar

Sync Outlook -> Google Calendar

Since Google Calendar Sync is being turned off at the end of this month (why Google?!?), I evaluated a couple of alternatives for one-way syncing an Outlook calendar to a Google calendar. I really want/need this feature because my phone auto-silences itself whenever I’m in a meeting, but only by watching a Google calendar.

I found a nice list of choices and discussion here:

In the end, I chose gSyncit. It’s totally adequate for my needs, has a reasonable price ($20) and has free updates. Configuration was pretty easy, and it only caused a couple of duplicates in my existing calendar on the first sync (I expected more problems, honestly).
