ZCal: Zimbra Calendar Sync for Android
No Support Available. Although this app advertises that it is able to support recurring events and events exceptions, I have not been able to get this to work. I can't use this app at all since it will put these events at the wrong time on my mobile calendar. I have contacted support 3 times now (the first time being a couple of months ago) and I have still not heard back.
Worked for a while, but stopped syncing. Reinstalled, started working again for a few days, then stopped syncing again. I thought the 15-minute trial would be enough to see if it worked, but I feel duped and now I can't get my money back.
Calendars show up under calendar list, but no events show on calendar. Have toggled calendars on/off and reset phone. Will update rating if this gets fixed.
I bought it, changed phone but doesn't work anymore
Does exactly what is supposed to do. Allows me to bidirectionally sync my Zimbra calendar to my Android phone. I can choose to sync only the calendars I choose to. This was a big deal for me; since switching to a Samsung, all my Z calendars would come in as one and I couldn't turn the ones i didn't need off. This was the perfect solution for me. Thanks!!
I was using Zextras and ActiveSync before discovering Zcal/Zcard. It worked, but the yearly license was frustrating. Zcal/Zcard worked right out of the box, no config changes to make server side. I had a small bug whereby new calendar events were always coming through as private events. I started working with the support team, and within 24 hours (and me sending logs over) they had a the issue resolved and the update in the Play Store. All this whilst there was a national holiday as well! Very impressive service, and a great app. Would HIGHLY recommend.
Great app, finally getting the Zimbra Calendar to my mobile. No fuss, just doing it. The config is fairly simple if you know a little about Zimbra servers (it's address and your credentials, really) A little room for improvement (the reason for the missing 5th star): once the config is completed, there is no message confirming... just the application disappearing... There should be a confirmation on the screen, a place where you can see the account created (and thus avoiding entering it a second time). When first installing and successfully configured, there is a delay for the calendar to update where the user wonders if it worked or not...
Is there any possibility to add change password for an existing account. If I want to change the pass I have to delete and readd the account with the new password. Beside that is a great app.
While this does do exactly what they say it does, and it does it very well, it wasn't what I was looking for. I was hoping it would sync events from other calendars on my android to my Zimbra calendar. It does not do this. Still this is my own misinterpretation of the description and not the developer. Good app.
Couldn't install
didn't work at first, but developer had fix to me in 24 hours. Impressive customer support!
And works quite nice too. Not missed a beat since the last update (4.4). Will upgrade to a 5 star if it keeps on working next time Android updates ... :)
This app really needs a user guide or a help function to get it going. Once it works it is good but wow getting it there is so frustrating. Update: the calendar keeps deleting day 8. So everything moves up a day and if don't see it in time your new apts are put in wrong day.
Bought the app and there is really no clear direction to sync with the current calendar on my SG4. HELP!!!
Works well on my Moto G2 KK 4.4.4 except for the crashing of android calendar app the moment I try to change the color of a ZCal calendar. Please fix this !!!
Great app for Zimbra users

Is not working as advertised. Of several calendars only a fraction of the events get synced. Tested on several devices w/ different Android versions. Everytime the same strange behaviour. Wrote to support, got an answer asking for the logs. Haven't heard from them since (about 40 days as of today). money lost :(
