   A smart calendar app to boost my productivity

   I love the way I can quickly glance at the next meeting in the menu bar on MacOS. I can also get the overview of all the upcoming meetings with one click from the menu bar icon or with keyboard shortcut. It definitely saves my time in searching the calendar tab in the browser a gazillion times in a day.

   The event notifications are also very helpful as they show up just one minute before the meeting starts and allow me to join meetings with just one click on the ‘Join’ button.

   The notifications come with a great functionality of notifying attendees of the meeting in case I am running late for the meeting via Slack without opening the window of native Slack app and searching for the attendee just to send a small message that I am running late for the meeting. Thank you to the Alkanzo team for saving me from the last minute hassle every now and then while I am running late for my next meeting!

   🏁 Competitors: Superpowered, MeetingBar

   👍 Pros:    Nice and slick design.|Timely notifications, just one minute before the meeting starts.|Runs on mac, windows and linux. i can use it on pretty much any of your laptops and desktops|Connects with google calendar and microsoft outlook calendar, two of the most popular calendar apps at present|Reasonable pricing.

   👎 Cons:    I would really love to see this app expand its scope beyond just giving an overview of upcoming meetings to also help me to keep track and give an overview of the tasks that i want to get done on time.

• Gryphmail completely gone???

  It seems like there might be an issue for the UofG site that had the direct link to GryphMail. However, this is not the only way to access your school email. You can go to Outlook and sign in through there with you @uoguelph.ca address — this method works and I was able to access my GryphMail today. Source: about 1 year ago

• Email activation

  If you've paid your confirmation deposit your email should be created (it can sometimes take 2-3 days). If you've activated your identikey you should be able to log in at https://outlook.live.com/owa/. Source: about 1 year ago

• Whats your favourite app that can work as a calendar and also effectively time-block out tasks?

  In** 2013** the company I worked for decided that everyone needed to move to Microsoft. We all started to use Outlook and the rest of the Office suite. I really liked the Outlook calendar on the desktop as I could schedule tasks and calendar items (with a little tweaking). Unfortunately, that did not translate to mobile. So I began using paper printouts of my day to stay on task whenever I was away from my PC. Source: over 1 year ago

• Power BI Training

  You also need a Power BI subscription for some of the labs. You can setup a free Microsoft 365 E5 trial here. Pro Tip: Don't use your real email address when setting up the trial. Create a free dummy email here. That way you can setup another free trial using a different dummy email address once the free trial runs out. Source: over 1 year ago

• is there a way to get just excel and not get 365??

  It’s free with the free version of Outlook. Kinda bare bones but works for most functions. Https://outlook.live.com/owa/. Source: almost 2 years ago
