Why Notion to Calendar

The features that make the difference

No workflow building

Connect Notion, pick a database, get a calendar link. No Zaps to build, test, or maintain.

Works with any calendar app

Apple Calendar, Outlook, Google Calendar, Fantastical - any app that supports iCal. Zapier requires separate Zaps per calendar.

Zero maintenance

Zaps break when Notion's API changes or you modify your database. Our tool handles edge cases automatically.

Share calendar links

Generate a link anyone can subscribe to. Zapier requires complex workarounds to share calendars.

FAQ

Common questions

Can Zapier sync Notion to Google Calendar?

Yes, but it requires building a Zap (automation workflow). You'll need to configure triggers, map fields, and handle edge cases. With Notion to Calendar, you just connect and get a link.

Why not just use Zapier?

For calendar sync, Zapier is overkill. You'll spend time building and maintaining Zaps that can break. We built a focused tool that does one thing really well.

Is Zapier more reliable?

Zaps can break when Notion's API changes or when you modify your database structure. Our tool is specifically built for Notion's calendar use case and handles these edge cases automatically.

What if I need other automations beyond calendars?

Use both! Many users use Notion to Calendar for calendar sync and Zapier for other automations. They work independently.
