Teamup

Overview

Teamup is a shared calendar for teams coordinating schedules, resources and operations. It suits groups that need separate calendars and carefully varied access more than individuals seeking a personal planner. Its strongest case is structured collaboration; teams needing private-server hosting or more than 100 users per calendar should look elsewhere.

Key features

Views and event details

Twelve calendar views, including year and table views, give teams different ways to scan schedules, while time blocking supports planning work into calendar slots. Events can carry custom fields, images and file attachments, and can be shared as standalone pages. These details make Teamup useful for bookings and operational schedules where an event needs more context than a time and title. Custom-field allowances vary sharply by plan, however: Free and Plus include one, while Pro starts at ten.

Access and integrations

Nine permission levels let teams distinguish access needs, and calendars can be shared through links without requiring recipients to create accounts. That flexibility is useful for coordinating with people outside the core team, but link-based sharing makes choosing appropriate permissions important. Teamup lists an API, iCalendar feeds, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Trello and Zapier as integrations. Calendar sync is one-way; the higher tiers specify inbound iCalendar feed refresh intervals from one hour on Pro to five minutes on Enterprise.

Security and hosting

Teamup says it is ISO/IEC 27001 certified and EU GDPR compliant, and describes TLS connections using 128-bit AES encryption alongside AES encryption for stored data and backups. It does not publish SOC reports. Production services run on AWS, with user content redundantly stored in Oregon and Ireland; private-server hosting is unavailable. That rules it out for organizations that require self-hosting.

Pricing

Teamup has a free plan and a three-day trial. Paid plans are billed yearly at the quoted monthly rates, with higher monthly-billing prices also given. The free tier is usable indefinitely, but its five sub-calendars, five users, one custom field and one year of historical data make it a small-team option rather than a roomy long-term tier.

Plus is the modest step up for teams needing more users, sub-calendars, storage or longer history, but it still allows just one custom field. Pro is the first tier with substantially more custom fields and storage. Business and Enterprise raise capacity and shorten inbound feed refresh intervals, with Enterprise also adding call-back support. Organization Accounts targets organizations managing multiple master calendars centrally; its starting annual price scales with users. Email support is included with listed plans, while Enterprise adds call-back support.

Platforms

Teamup is available on web, iOS and Android, and provides an API. The mobile apps extend access beyond desktop calendar use.

Who it's for

Teamup is a sensible fit for businesses and teams coordinating shared schedules, resources or operations, from room bookings to field-crew job schedules. Its access controls, event attachments and growing calendar and storage limits suit groups whose coordination needs outgrow a basic shared calendar. It is less suitable for a solo user wanting a personal calendar, or for an organization that requires private hosting.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Nine permission levels and account-free link sharing accommodate varied collaborators.
• Pros: Event fields, images, attachments and standalone pages keep useful context with scheduled work.
• Pros: A free plan and multiple paid capacity tiers let small teams start modestly and expand.
• Cons: Free is capped at five users and five sub-calendars, while Plus remains capped at one custom field.
• Cons: Calendar sync is one-way, and faster inbound iCal refreshes require higher-priced plans.
• Cons: Private-server hosting is unavailable, and SOC reports are not published.

Verdict

Choose Teamup if your group needs a shared operational calendar with granular permissions, rich event details and room to scale across paid tiers. Its free plan is practical for a small group, but user and sub-calendar caps, one-way sync and annual billing on paid rates are meaningful constraints. Look elsewhere if you need two-way synchronization, private hosting or substantially more than 100 users per calendar.
