"Finally- software that merges contacts and calendar."
Version: Business Appointment Manager 2.0
Pros
Clean interface that is fairly customizable, simple to learn usage, and unlike other software I've tested- no double typing to create a printable appointment calendar showiing chosen customer information (name, phone, address, etc) on a calendar.
Cons
Custom field can be made, but use no date math, and poor ability to utilize custom fields in reports and sorts. The month view isn't very useful, shows just hours used and available. Seems a bit expensive for what it does, although it works well.
Summary
I tried a bunch of software, looking for an improved replacement for my old Palm Desktop software in my small service business. Time and Chaos seemed the closest, but has a clunky interface that requires double typing just to make a usable calendar with my customer's address and phone numbers showing. I've requested Chaos software add this feature for a year and they say "they'll consider it"! Even though Customer Appointment Manager costs 6 times more, it is worth it for me... so far I've experienced a well thought out package that is customizable just enough to make things work for me, without fuddling through lots of options and menus I don't need. I have version 5- their tech support had been good and says a new version will be released late 2010, which will hopefully address the lack of date and sorting options related to the custom fields.
