[...] Clean calendar and contacts migration can be tricky. For calendaring and contacts, after many experiments we found that doing .csv-based uploads was also cleanest (and yes we tried Google Apps sync). As hard as Google engineers have tried to make this easy, Outlook/Exchanged based mailbox data structures can get screwed up over time, especially if users have ever had any kind of plugins involved, or have ever used 3rd party synchronization tools. I found that using .csv was fast and accurate with the least amount of heartache.

Steve – Nope this process will not sync your calendar everyday…if you wish to sync your calendars automatically you should try out Calendar Sync from Google – http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer…

I've used this software for about a year and have no major issues. The only thing you should keep in mind is that the Outlook Calendar will only sync with the Default calendar in GCal…if you have any questions about its use or are looking for tips…let me know, I'll be more than happy to help.
