        Actually i prefer to use month or week views in order to get a quick glance of the upcoming events, instead of daily views. This way i can notice appointments some days ahead, which can be very helpful when having to take some preparations. Sometimes i forget a meeting, and it’s good to be reminded prior to the actual meeting date. Windows Phone 7 also provides a month view, but i don’t find it really useful.

        Microsoft took the strange decision to provide only one view which shows the appointment subjects on the month view. But the text is so small that you can’t read it, so it defeats the point of having subjects shown at all. I would have liked to see colored time bars like on the stock Android calendar or 3rd party apps like Pocket Informant (iOS, Android). Currently it’s not even possible to differentiate which calendar has an upcoming event, since there is no color used on the month view. Hopefully Microsoft gives us an update soon which provide a more polished calendar experience.

        Having just a monthly or daily option is not very user friendly for finding gaps in ones week to slot in an appointment.

        An absolute must. I'm migrating from paper to paperless and without a week view it is not efficient.

        Week/workweek view is definitely needed, lack of it was almost a deal breaker.
        Week numbers are are must too.

        Ability to zoom into month view could be a solution
