I purchased the pro version two months ago, and I've been pleased with its operation and the support provided by the developers. There are 11 sample themes which are all easily adjusted for customization.
When I suggested that the events displayed didn't have an AM/PM time selection, I was surprised to see in implemented in the next upgrade, eventhough the developer indicated that I could have it done for a fee.
Multiple calendars are supported out of the box. You can have one calendar for example teachers and one for students, another for janitors. etc.
There's one minor thing that it doesn't have which is standard with most modules. When saving events it has Save and Save & Close, but it doesn't have a Save & New. That causes an extra step when inputting multiple events to a calendar.
All in all, this is a great calendar.

Spider calendar extension is an excellent product. What I needed for my web site calendar was supported by this calendar. It was a pleasure to work with the development team. Also the price is fair compared to the functionality.
I love this spider calendar! It simply does what I needed. Glad to see that the big calendar is added in this version.
I am a website developer and create several Joomla sites a month. I bought Spider Calendar more then a year ago and used it on most of my sites. Recently I looked at the demo of the new version and discovered lots of new abilities. I bought it again a week ago and I am very satisfied.
