Preamble

  • Refer to this other guide if you only want to display a read-only Infomaniak calendar on Google Calendar (web & mobile app).
    • The reverse is also possible if you only want to display a read-only Google calendar on the web app Calendar Infomaniak (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/calendar).
  • The procedure below allows you to edit the calendar events on both sides but only on the mobile version of the Google Calendar app.
  • The various services offered by Infomaniak are all compatible with the corresponding standard protocols (CalDAV/CardDAV for contacts & calendars, for example), therefore if you encounter a problem with third-party software, contact its publisher or a Partner and consult the support policy as well as section 11.9 of the Infomaniak Terms of Service.

  1. Decide whether you want to synchronize tasks.
  2. Allow kSync to access the required items on the device, primarily the calendar.

  3. my kSuite and my kSuite+ are limited versions of kSuite, do not require a domain name, and can also perfectly meet your email needs.

 

Cost of simple email offers

This email can be…

  • free if you are content with an address with a generic domain name (what comes after the at sign @), imagined by Infomaniak (etik.com, ik.me, ikmail.com) by taking my kSuite (my kSuite+ unlocks some limitations of my kSuite)
  • … at very low cost if you are content with one or two free email addresses on a domain name that you pay for (there are domain names for less than 5 CHF/€ per year, these will be your only expenses and this allows you to personalize your email addresses) by ordering:
    • either the Starter offer (1 email address only)
    • or the kSuite offer

 

Need a large number of email addresses?

If you need several email addresses on the same domain, then it is possible to order a Mail Service only (5 email addresses minimum) or kSuite which exists in 3 different versions:

  • Standard
  • Business

The common point of all Mail offers is that you must have a user account with Infomaniak (a login identifier in the form of an email address, as well as a password) which will lead you to your Organization where your email will be found.

 

Additional tools (kDrive…)

If you choose a Suite (kSuite or my kSuite / my kSuite+), this user account will lead you to your Organization where the suite of tools will be found, therefore your email but also kDrive, kChat etc.

  • presentation
  • notebook
  • document draw.io for diagrams, schematics and wireframes

Refer to the guide on this subject.
