Hi :) "Evolution" is supposedly very much like "Outlook". Evolution has Calendar and email as it's 2 main things.
Unfortunately most distros ship with such ancient versions of it that it's difficult to get help if you ever need it. Hopefully you can get the most recent version upstream somewhere like you would get LibreOffice from the LibreOffice website sometimes.
