SuperPIM

This personal information manager conveniently combines an enhanced address book, a notebook, and a messenger, although it falls short on calendaring functions. The well-designed interface, with its sliders and tree structure, lets you quickly access and organize any number of contacts, notes, and messages. SuperPIM includes fields for all sorts of contact information, such as multiple phone numbers, e-mail addresses, instant-messenger IDs, birthdays, pets, and photos. However, customization options are limited, as there's only one custom field for each contact. From the contact details, you can immediately send instant messages, SMS, or e-mail to a person or group. It also includes a calendar, although you are limited to a monthly view and you can't add events, making it unsuitable for keeping appointments. You can lock groups of contacts with a password and import comma-delimited text files. We found SuperPIM fairly easy to use, with a nice set of contact-database features, but its lack of calendar features holds it back compared to the latest personal information managers.
