Evolution como alternativa Linux a Windows Calendar
Actualizado el
Nuestra opinión
Evolution is a capable replacement for Windows Calendar if you also want email and contact management in one tool. It supports Google Calendar, Microsoft Exchange, and iCloud via CalDAV or EWS, so syncing works reliably. The monthly view is available, and event creation with reminders is solid. However, it’s heavier than Windows Calendar and has a steeper learning curve. If you only need a simple calendar, it might be overkill. But for users wanting a full PIM suite on Linux, Evolution is a strong fit.

Windows Calendar doesn't export data in a standard standalone file format like .ics by default, and Evolution relies on account-level syncing rather than file imports. If you export calendar data from Outlook.com or Google Calendar as .ics files, Evolution can import them without issue. Direct file compatibility between Windows Calendar and Evolution isn't documented, but syncing through supported services is the intended method and works reliably.
