No workday ever runs in a straight line. A quick chat turns into a brainstorming session, a day off affects your project timeline, and before you know it, your schedule has shifted in ways your calendar can’t always keep up with.
At Zoho Calendar, we believe your schedule should adapt to your work, not the other way around. Every meeting you plan and every reminder you set should reflect what’s actually happening across your team.
With our new Zoho People and Zoho Cliq integrations, we’re making your scheduling smarter and your collaboration more natural so you spend less time coordinating, and more time doing. These integration helps your calendar understand two crucial things: When your teammates are available, and how your team communicates.
Whether it’s your colleague’s leave update from Zoho People or an impromptu meeting over Zoho Cliq, these integrations make sure your calendar stays in sync with your everyday flow. Because to us, improving Zoho Calendar isn’t just about adding new features, it’s about making every interaction simpler, more connected, and closer to how real teams work.
When your calendar knows your team as well as you do
Thanks to the Zoho People integration, your calendar already knows your schedule because it’s synced directly with your leave and holiday data from Zoho People.
It’s Wednesday morning, and your project review is due this Friday. You are about to schedule a wrap-up meeting, but Zoho Calendar highlights Friday as your upcoming leave. That quiet nudge helps you pause and plan better. You shift the meeting to Thursday, ensuring everything’s wrapped up before your time off begins.
That’s what this integration brings you—context-aware scheduling. With the Zoho People integration, your personal leaves, shift details, and organization-wide holidays sync automatically with your calendar. So when you’re scheduling your week, you always see the full picture no manual checks, no missed context. It’s all there, quietly updated in real time.
For employees, it means staying mindful of your own time-off plans before accepting or creating meetings. For HR and admins, it ensures that company-wide holidays and shifts are reflected accurately across everyone’s calendars. The sync flows one way from Zoho People to Calendar, ensuring that your events always reflect the most up-to-date information.
No more forgotten leave days, no more overlap between meetings and time off, just a calendar that respects your work-life balance as much as you do.
You can learn more about how Zoho Calendar syncs with Zoho People, including leave, shift, and holiday updates, in our Zoho People sync guide.
When meetings meet conversations
We’ve all had that moment where a conversation in Zoho Cliq starts as a casual update and suddenly turns into “Let’s jump on a quick call.”
Just a few months ago, that meant switching tabs, opening your calendar, creating a meeting, copying links, and pasting them back into the chat. But now, those extra steps are gone.
With the Zoho Cliq integration with Zoho Calendar, your conversations and meetings live side by side. When you create an event in Zoho Calendar, you can simply add a Cliq conference as your meeting with options for both audio or video meeting, whichever fits. Once the event is saved, Zoho Calendar automatically spins up a group chat in Zoho Cliq with all of the invitees, and event details and updates appear instantly.
Need to reschedule the meeting? Everyone gets notified in the same chat. Need to talk before the call? Open the chat directly from the event in Calendar. Every change stays in sync between your Zoho Calendar and Cliq Calendar, so your team always stays on the same page.
And the best part? Each event that includes a Cliq conference carries a tiny Cliq icon in your Calendar view, reminding you that this meeting started as a conversation and can always return to one.
Think of it as your conversations and your calendar finally speaking the same language—because collaboration shouldn’t slow down for scheduling.
A calendar that grows with your work
Zoho Calendar’s new integrations with Zoho People and Zoho Cliq are small but powerful steps toward solving your everyday work struggles.
Now, your calendar doesn’t just show time slots; it understands your team’s availability, respects their schedules, and connects seamlessly with your conversations. From knowing who’s on leave to launching a meeting straight from a chat, your workday becomes smoother, more predictable, and more connected.
This is just the beginning. At Zoho Calendar, we’re constantly listening, learning, and iterating. Every update, every integration is built to make your calendar not just a tool but a true companion in your work life.
With Zoho Calendar, your schedule doesn’t just keep up, it keeps you ahead, making every day easier to plan, collaborate, and succeed.
We’d love for you to try these integrations, explore how they fit into your workflow, and share your feedback with us. Your insights help us continue building a calendar that works the way you do.
