[QUOTE="stevenalker, post: 91467, member: 189875"] [color=black]I use Microsoft Outlook, mainly because it integrates well with my CRM system, Maximizer Enterprise, which I use for work and as a personal address book for home use (OK, the latter is an over-kill, but why learn to use another less able product!) I populate Outlook’s task list and calendar from Maximizer and can share them with non Maximizer users both at work and on the home network via Outlook. Getting a 12 year old to the dentist on time is rendered much less painful when his PC pops up an Outlook reminder to him in the middle of whatever he is doing and an email is received from my own CRM system letting him know I’ll pick him up from school.
