DiaryOne 6.7

CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET staff on November 03, 2009

DiaryOne is an attractive program that allows users to create a customizable and secure electronic diary. Although many of the program's features can be found elsewhere, its sleek interface and organizational structure make it a good choice.

The program's interface is intuitive and reminiscent of Microsoft Office products; the toolbar on the left reminds us of Outlook, while the formatting buttons across the top will be familiar to users of Word. Users can quickly move from month to month using numbered tabs to the right of the screen. We do wish that the program had more than two options for its skin; the default is a sedate brown, while the other option, "Romantic," is an unattractive lavender. That's a minor complaint, though; the program is otherwise nice to look at and easy to navigate. The built-in Help file is brief and obviously not written by a native English speaker, but we didn't really need it. The program has a nice assortment of features, including the ability to add images and sound to entries. We were excited about being able to record an audio entry, but we found that the playback of the recording was of very poor quality. We liked that users could group entries by category for viewing, and thought that the cash-flow feature, which allows users to track their daily expenditures, was a nice touch. Overall, nothing about the program blew us away, but it is of higher quality than similar program's we've seen.

DiaryOne has 30-day trial period. It installs without issues but leaves a folder behind upon removal. We recommend this program to all users.
