Insightly Classic is the old version of Insightly. It's not available to new accounts. Users on Insightly Classic can switch over to the latest version.
Calendar events are for keeping track of conferences you're attending, gatherings you've organized, office holidays, and other important dates.
You can link events to other records to identify contacts like organizers, suppliers, or participants, and any projects or opportunities that are related to an event.
Continue using your calendar application to send meeting invitations or schedule events for others. You cannot schedule an event for another user or invite others to an event in Insightly. We offer a Google Calendar and Microsoft Exchange (Outlook) calendar sync to give you a combined view of your calendars.
For more information on the Insightly calendar, see The Insightly calendar.
