Unified Company Calendar for Mixed Microsoft 365 and Non-365 Users – 2025
Seeking a Shared Calendar Solution for Mixed Microsoft 365 and Non-365 Users I’m working on a solution to create a shared company calendar that everyone in our organization can view, while keeping editing permissions limited to a few selected individuals. The challenge: Some of our team members do not use Microsoft 365, and I’d like them to still be able to subscribe to or view the calendar and receive updates. Ideally, this should work without requiring full Microsoft accounts. I initially considered using an ICS-based calendar, but it seems Microsoft 365 Group calendars don’t support sharing via ICS links. I also explored creating a Group calendar as suggested in other threads, but ran into issues making it accessible to external users or those without 365 accounts. For context, I’m a Global Admin, so I have full access to configure settings in the Microsoft 365 Admin Center and Exchange if needed. We’re a small business, and our main goal is to have a centralized calendar for vacation schedules and company-wide events. It should be simple to access and maintain, with a focus on collaboration and accessibility across the board. What I’m looking for: A calendar that’s viewable by all, including non-M365 users Editable only by a few delegated team members Compatible with Microsoft 365, but not dependent on it for basic access Any tools, workarounds, or best practices that have worked for others in similar hybrid environments

We’ve all been there — your Outlook or Hotmail inbox is overflowing with thousands of old messages, and you decide to clean house. You select all, hit delete, and feel relieved… until you try to open your mailbox again and get hit with a dreaded message: “We’ve temporarily limited your account.” Welcome to the world of Outlook throttling — Microsoft’s way of protecting its servers (and your account) from overload or suspicious activity. But don’t worry, it’s usually temporary and easy to fix. https://dellenny.com/why-outlook-locks-you-out-after-deleting-thousands-of-emails-and-how-to-fix-it-fast/Data Residency and Compliance in the Microsoft Cloud with Microsoft 365
In today’s globally connected world, organisations face growing pressure to ensure data is stored, managed, and protected in accordance with national borders and data-sovereignty laws. For users of Microsoft 365 and the wider Microsoft Cloud, understanding data residency and compliance is essential to maintaining trust and meeting legal obligations. https://dellenny.com/data-residency-and-compliance-in-the-microsoft-cloud-microsoft-365-governance-guide/How Cloud Computing Improves Business Agility and the Role of Microsoft 365
In today’s fast-moving business world, agility isn’t just a nice-to-have—it’s essential. The ability to respond quickly to market changes, launch new offerings, support remote or hybrid work, and scale resources up or down can define success. One of the foundational enablers of that agility is cloud computing. Further, productivity and collaboration platforms such as Microsoft 365 (M365) help turn those capabilities into everyday business reality. Here’s how cloud computing boosts agility, and how Microsoft 365 fits into the picture. https://dellenny.com/how-cloud-computing-improves-business-agility-and-the-role-of-microsoft-365/
