I connect my Google account and add my calendars. and I can see all my meetings in one place, without switching to another app for a calendar and jump on the next meeting with a simple keyboard shortcut.

It's a life saver in a fast corporate env. Also I like the analytics they provide and it seems like the analysis of my calendar is getting deeper and deeper as they add new information.
