1calendar is a web and mobile time management system for colleges and universities that use HIS LSF.
The service is popular among students and staff because it combines information such as timetables,
homework, private events and activities from facebook in one calendar. The calendar also
communicates with mobile phone applications for iPhone and Android, which further ensure that
students are always up to date. This saves time and effort and makes communication on the university
effective and seamless.

Facebook syncPeople like to have important information combined in one
place. With facebook sync it is now possible to keep track
of all events, invitations and birthdays of your friends right
next to the personal calendar and the university timetable.
Homework sync1calendar integrates information on homework in an online
to-do that also works as a personal organiser. The homework
information may come from e-learning environments such as
Moodle.
Mobile syncWith 1calendar's mobile applications notifications of timetable
changes are received real-time on the mobile phone. This way
students and staff are always up to date with recent changes
happening on the university.
HIS LSF syncAll timetable information from HIS LSF is converted into
automatically updated calendar events for the individual
student or teacher. When changes take place in Syllabus Plus
they instantly appear in the calendar and on mail.
In a survey among our users at Danish
universities, 9 out of 10 students said they
use 1calendar to check their schedule on
their cell phones.
Mobile applicationsThe mobile phone has become an important part of our everyday
lives, especially amongst students. At 1calendar we've made it our
specialty to understand students' needs for mobile applications in
relation to education.
With 1calendar's mobile solutions, students receive free and
effective mobile calendar applications that include all the features
accessible from the web application.
The apps are much like private university secretaries for students
and staff. They sync with timetables from HIS LSF and fetch events
received from social media such as facebook. When changes in any
activity occur, the app sends notifications to the mobile phone,
informing the student in real-time about the change. In addition,
students and staff can use the mobile organiser to add their private
events, coordinate group work and check their homework for the
next day.
It’s that easy
No installationThe installation has already been done.
1calendar is a "cloud service" which means that it’s accessible
from the Internet. 1calendar communicates with the
institution’s servers using API’s and the latest web integration
technologies, which saves the IT department much time and
hassle.
No extra workThe maintenance is handled externally.
1calendar handles all maintenance in-house and ensures that
data is always updated real-time for the users of the system.
It only takes five minutesIntuitive learning.
The whole service is set up for you / your individual institution
in advance and the system is very straightforward and user
friendly. 1calendar requires no learning or training..

We use the cloudMore and more Universities are turning to use cloud services. High-speed
Internet bandwidth is nearly universally accessible. As a result, the costs of
local computing have gone down while the productivity of working online
has increased significantly.
Why turn to cloud services?QualityA hosted version is more easily maintained with
software updates. Because it is hosted in the cloud, the
latest version of 1calendar is always accessible to
students and staff.
A hosted version allows 1calendar to provide better
customer service at a lower cost because of easy
access to the installation.
AvailabilityThe 1calendar service is designed to be accessed from
the web and from mobile devices. In order to do that, it
always needs to leave the servers of the institution.
The software is hosted in an environment that is
designed for low-to-none downtime. 1calendar also
runs multiple servers to avoid fail-over. This is a setup
that most institutions cannot afford. From experience
our schedule has much higher availability than
schedules hosted by university on their own servers.
1calendar has offline access. This means that students
and staff can still access the schedule locally and will
not need to be connected to the 1calendar server.
SecurityA hosted version of 1calendar is easily maintained with
the newest security updates. Privately hosted
software will not be updated as regularly.
1calendar has an SSL-only policy on its web and mobile
access. Neither login information nor timetable
information can be intercepted by a third party, even
when accessed through an insecure network.
1calendar has very high standards on data security.
Access to our databases and servers is very restricted,
and can only be performed by trained personnel
through secure connections. Sensitive information is
encrypted.
1calendar applies a consistently high security standard
to all its servers and keeps the server operating
systems updated with the latest security patches.
All data is hosted in Europe and is subject to the local
data protection laws.
