Frequently Asked Questions

The JavaScript Calendar with rich set of features offers the following features:

We do not sell the JavaScript Calendar separately. It is only available for purchase as part of the Syncfusion team license. This contains over 1,800 components and frameworks, including the JavaScript Calendar. The price of the team license starts at $395 per month for 5 developers, and includes support and updates until the subscription expires. In addition, we might offer discounts based on currently active promotions. Please contact our product specialists today to see if you qualify for any additional discounts.

You can find our JavaScript Calendar demo, which demonstrates how to render and configure the Calendar.

No, our 1,800+ components and frameworks for web, mobile, and desktop, including our JavaScript Calendar, are not sold individually. They are only available as part of a team license. However, we have competitively priced the product, so it only costs a little bit more than what some other vendors charge for their Calendar control alone. We have also found that, in our experience, our customers usually start off using one of our products and then expand to several products quickly, so we felt it was best to offer all 1,800+ components and frameworks for a subscription fee that starts at $395 per month for a team of 5 developers. Additionally, we might be able to offer discounts based on currently active promotions. Please contact our product specialists today to see if you qualify for any additional discounts.

No, this is a commercial product and requires a paid license. However, a free community license is also available for companies and individuals whose organizations have less than $1 million USD in annual gross revenue, 5 or fewer developers, and 10 or fewer total employees.

A good place to start would be our comprehensive getting started documentation.
