What is TeamCal Pro

Image Added

TeamCal Pro is a web-based calendar application written in PHP and MySQL. It's purpose is the day-based absence management of project teams and their members.

The goal was to create an optically attractive but also effective representation of a calendar display, showing the presence and absence of each team member. TeamCal Pro supports the customization of holiday types and absence types, thus, its purpose can be altered to any graphical representation of timeline based processes or activities, e.g. a simple project plan or an event management. I have seen many great ideas of how to use TeamCal Pro.

TeamCal Pro is a free open source application. You can use it at no cost in any profit or non-profit environment. However, if you want to utilize TeamCal Pro in a commercial context (like managing your employees' absences) I kindly ask for a donation of 50.00 USD.

Please go to the Home page and use the Donation Form there if you like. Thank You very much!

Features

Year Calendar View
