In the course of personally looking at 20-30 organizers and PIMS I so wanted to use this. Unfortunately the demo version repeatedly kept converting databases to 'read only' (the first time I had encountered this in my investigations of PIMs). As far as I understand this is not a restriction of the demo version, confirmed by their support team who replied to my 'bug' report by saying they 'could not reproduce this' and the query was 'closed'! So the features are impressive (including individual lockable notes)but the support available is less than helpful. If I am to trust my data to a program I want to know that program is trustworthy and won't fail by locking a database. Having spent several days trying to resolve the 'read only' database error I have now given up (sadly because I so wanted this to work). Their web site has been unobtainable for two days as well! Great potential, but poor support!

Well imagined, but too complicated to my taste. It takes quite a time to open in order to complete just as simple task as writing down a thought, entering a contact, or see what do I have planned for today. I prefer simpler applications for handling separate functions. One for contacts (PhoneDeck), one as calendar-organizer (Calendarscope) and one as a notebook (KeyNote). I never store important passwords on my computer.
