It was bad manners in the Soviet Union to do so and itвЂ™s bad manners to do it now in the Era of Internet Surveillance.ДЇruux does use AWS to manage most of its data (as does RocketChat) so your data is not really private or safe. Keeping oneвЂ™s data on GoogleвЂ™s servers is effectively agreeing to work as an informer for the KGB. Still I donвЂ™t want all of our business data available to every two bit (or $2 trillion) organisation who would like to disrupt either us as organisation or any of our employees lives. You are probably no more involved in illegal activity than I or my company are. GoogleвЂ™s servers are the IRS, FBI, CIA, NSA, DEA, US Customs, regional police department and related contractors personal database now. Putting your corporate data on GoogleвЂ™s servers is simply foolish at this point. You need over a hundred users for this kind of roll-your-own solution to work. Managing oneвЂ™s own CardDav and CalDav servers is a pain (we did something similar for awhile with our chat services and quickly tired of it). Why we still use Fruux any way Convenience Instead of using Contacts, IвЂ™ve had to move to buy Busењњontacts as it does work with Fruux and any other OS X services (thereвЂ™s usually a sale available on Busењњontacts). Make it work, one way or another, Dominic. I donвЂ™t care what standards you have to break to make sync work. WeвЂ™re paying Fruux for the privilege of working CardDav. In El Capitan, I canвЂ™t get AppleвЂ™s Contacts to play well with Fruux. Fruux Problems syncing with Apple Contacts Insisting on changing web standards instead of supporting customers is perhaps the best example of Millennial Moronity IвЂ™ve seen in my long career in IT. Due to this single missing feature, we never recommended Fruux to our clients, never recommended Fruux to our friends and did not write a post recommending Fruux three and a half years ago in spring 2015. The two things which Teamwork does understand and has understood from the beginning though is supporting multiple systems and legacy compatibility.Дue to the intractibility of Dominik Tobschall and Evert Pot, we have to keep our company address book within Teamwork and not somewhere useful like in our phone address books. I disagree with many of TeamworkвЂ™s IT decisions вЂ“ Cold Fusion, AWS, non-specific URLs, broken back buttons вЂ“ theyвЂ™ll paste any kind of incompatible coding languages into their system. Our company project management system (far more important to us than shared calendars вЂ“ works great вЂ“ and a shared address system вЂ“ barely works) Teamwork exports contacts as Excel files. It turns out that import contacts out of csv files is a very popular feature request at Fruux. Your request unfortunately falls in that latter category. For some of those types of requests, we end up prioritizing and implementing the feature, but for some others they are extremely rare requests and not necessarily something that many people need. When I reminded Dominik that regardless of theory many, many popular applications still export contact data in CSV format and only CSV format, his co-founder Evert Pot wrote to me to confirm that my request for CSV import of contact data is just a nuisance:ДЇrom our perspective I hope you also understand we actually occasionally get an email such as yours, requesting the вЂone missing featureвЂ™ often along with how ridiculous it is we donвЂ™t yet support it. ThatвЂ™s about as inflexible approach to compatibility as IвЂ™ve ever seen. Spreadsheets with names and telephone numbers have been ubiquitous since Lotus 123 hit the market.ДЇruux founder Dominik Tobschall tweeted me that Fruux will only ever work with VCF as spreadsheets are obsolete: Contact data in CSV format is the single most popular format in the world for contact data. Not allowing the import of tabular data is the silliest thing IвЂ™ve ever heard of from what are probably smart people. Fruux fails to sync reliably with AppleвЂ™s DAV servers.Fruux will not allow import of tabular data (i.e.Fruux is almost unique in its marketplace.

Due to GoogleвЂ™s free offering, paid sync has become a very niche market. Sadly most people care not a whit about privacy. GoogleвЂ™s CalDAV works brilliantly and is free but there are serious privacy concerns which we cover below. It competes with the free Google Calendar principally, though iCloud and Microsoft Outlook offer paid competition. Fruux is an address book and calendar sync service. In case you have not heard of it before, let me introduce Fruux.
