    Sugar Calendar is now my go-to calendar due to its simplicity with adding new events. I’ve found that it was so much easier for my clients to use than some of the other event/calendar plugins out there while providing the features they needed most.
  • Stars
    Sugar calendar is an overall great plugin that’s easy to use, looks clean and was so easy to implement. Im so used to programs having a steep learning curve before I can truly use the program to its fullest potential, this is not the case for Sugar Calendar!

    Sugar Calendar does all that I need. I have never had a problem with it, and support has been responsive when I had questions. It’s easy to install, simple to configure. It looks great on my WordPress theme.

    Sugar Calendar is intuitive, and very user friendly. I love that the learning curve to use the calendar is so low. Even my non-tech clients can get their heads around it.

    Overall I’ve found sugar calendar to be a robust plugin that’s well maintained and offers everything you would need for a Wordpress plugin like this. It’s extremely user friendly and the simplicity of creating events, adding details, and more make this an amazing plugin.

    This is an incredibly solid plugin to use as a base. I’ve tried several others, and this one is better than all the others I’ve tried!

    Huge fan! Love the simple nature of this plugin. Perfect for a site that just needs a basic calendar with none of the bloat that comes along with The Events Calendar.

  • Stars
    I was just looking for a simple calendar to display a short events list inside a sidebar and a calendar on a single page. This plugin accomplishes this exactly as expected and, unlike the other many calendar plugins, this one provides two blocks which include the events list and also the calendar.
