I had long been a proponent of Android, scoffing at those who gravitated towards the iPhone and iOS. To me, Android was the better of the two worlds. I thoroughly enjoyed Android until they made some of the simplest settings hard to change, such as silencing your phone. The iPhone has the simplest way: a switch. I was sold!
The transition from Android to iOS was a bit rocky. Having been ingrained in the Google architecture for so long, I had vast amounts of information to transition over; things like files, contacts, and, of course, my daily agenda, the calendar. I wanted all of this to be relatively seamless and, well, it hasn't been.
I use Microsoft Outlook at work. The calendar functionality of it is excellent, so I have no desire to search for anything else. And, yet, Google makes it so hard to incorporate the ability to sync everything with Microsoft. Apple, on the other hand, has made it quite easy; just a simple add-in. That said, I decided it was time to switch to Outlook and utilize my live.com calendar for all of my needs. And, honestly, it works great! The ability to add and remove events from one calendar on one device is excellent. I no longer have to get to a web browser in order to make changes. I am very happy with the move!
