Thinking about the Skylight Calendar? Well, here's a quick look at the pros and cons—it might help you decide if it's the right fit for you.

Pros

Getting the Skylight Calendar up and running is pretty straightforward. When you take it out of the box, you just hook it up to your Wi-Fi and it syncs with your calendars without a hitch. This makes life easier for folks who want all their scheduling in one spot—not too shabby for busy families.

But here's something to keep in mind: if you want all the bells and whistles, like the photo slideshow, you'll need a Skylight Plus subscription. This does mean extra costs, which some people aren't thrilled about. Without it, the calendar is mostly just good for organizing schedules and chores.
