Version: EssentialPIM 1.8
Pros: I've tried a number of tools like this one, but this is the only one I've ever got along with. It's so simple. Other programs have tons of unwanted features, making it really complicated just to add a simple reminder, then trying to manage all the reminders is just simply a pain. With EssentialPIM you've basically got 5 sections:
Schedule: Great for making a schedule of all the things you have to do. Allows for day, week month or year views.
To Do: My favourite one, add a To Do, and it shows in the list. Allows you to enter a start date and end date, a completion %, category, extra notes and a date to popup a reminder. Reminders can pop up on the desktop, play a sound, and display a customized message. All these features are optional - you can add a 'To Do' without selecting any of these. They all appear in one simple list with a notes pane underneath telling you more info about each one when you click on it.
Notes: Easy to use notepad - create a new note, give it a name and type into it. List of notes appears on the side and you click one to look at/ edit it. Includes a great rich text editor. Notes can be ordered however you want, includes a search feature and a handy mini calendar is shown at the bottom.
Contacts: Add/Edit/Delete & Search your contacts. Allows you to add info for Personal and/or Business. You can save notes on each contact and a picture. Contact info saved includes all basic name, address, etc, plus extras like website, MSN, ICQ etc. You can also add your own fields if you want to store extra information about them.
EPIM Today: An easy to read overview of the schedule and To Do notes for the day.
Lots of options and alternative languages are available, and it allows you to save and load EPIM database files for backing up data or storing multiple databases of info.
Simple, light on resources, tiny download. Fantastic! Try it :-)

Version: EssentialPIM 1.8
Pros: Great piece of SW, can recommend to all, have used it for a couple of month, take it!
The real advantage is that you have a calendar, day, week, month, year, and a "notebook", were you can store any kind of information.
With most free SW you only have only one. Either Calendar or "Notebook".
Cons: We cannot copy webpages with it's adresses. This is a pain!
The search function does not work on my computer. Not even if the word I search for is just above.
Besides that, what a great Program. I have tried several, nothing comes close in overall functions.

Version: EssentialPIM 1.8
"Good features but annoying bug"
Pros: Has the all needed features.
Free but can give you everything you need.
Good user interface.
Cons: There is a bug that when you launch the program sometimes it gives an error that it can not find your saved file. I installed this on two different computers(WinXP-Pro and WinXP-Home) and both have the same bug.
