Frequently asked questions
Have questions about Sugar Calendar for your educational institution? See our most common questions below.
If you don’t find what you’re looking for, contact us anytime.
Do we need both Events and Bookings, or just one?
Most educational institutions benefit from having both. Use Events to share public academic calendars, program schedules, and educational events that everyone can see. Use Bookings for private appointments like student meetings, advising sessions, and office hours. The bundle gives you both at a discount.
Will this work with our existing website?
Yes! Sugar Calendar works with any WordPress website and any WordPress theme. It automatically adapts to your site’s design. If you’re using a page builder like Elementor, we have widgets for that too.
Is Sugar Calendar difficult to learn and use?
Not at all. Most institutions are up and running in under 30 minutes. Adding events is as simple as creating a blog post. No coding skills required, and we provide comprehensive documentation and support.
Can people sync events to their personal calendars?
Absolutely. People can export events to Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Outlook, or any calendar app that supports iCal format. They click once and the event appears on their phone automatically.
Do you offer educational or nonprofit discounts?
Yes! Qualifying nonprofit educational institutions are eligible for special discounted pricing. Contact our sales team with your nonprofit documentation to learn more about available discounts.
