602PC SUITE
  • Free Trial ($39.95)
  • WinWin (All)

qleft  rritations and bugs and love and hate  qright

602PC SUITE version 4.2.06.0213
  • Interface: 5
  • Features: 4
  • Ease of use: 4
  • Value: 3
  • Overall: 4

Interface: Solid and fun to use (mostly). Registration: Total brain damage. Date/Time Stamp: None - "Fields" are used and are dynamic and can't be changed. The Date field is stuck in an Atlantic Ocean time zone somewhere. Highlighting /Shading: Paragraphs only, the tool is funky. Font Default: Times New Roman - can't be changed (Big Drag) Borders: Only for paragraphs. Spelling: No auto-correct - most contractions (isn't) are seen as a misspelling (isn). In general: I can't find a difference between version 4.1 and 4.2. I have never received a response to any inquiry I've sent. This software is also marketed under the name "OfficeSuite 2006". I like 602PC Suite and would pay $30 if the bugs were fixed or the suite was supported. It has very strong features and the Photo/Spreadsheet sections are very good. I use it daily. Try B4 buy. Buy it and you will have a sadistic experience registering it.

I am a long-time programmer and obsessive PIM connoisseur. I have purchased and tested many PIMs since 1983 - Sidekick under DOS (thanks Paul) through all the versions of the ACT, Corel, Lotus/IBM and Microsoft calendars, the AnyTime and InfoSelect versions and scores of PIM trials on the net. I have also tested Mac/Linux PIM programs over the years. Never been totally happy until I found EssentialPIM Pro. I very much appreciate the thoughtful and comprehensive effort that created this program. Plus, this software has no subjective attitude (not stuck with TimesNewRoman, YEAH!). This program does what you want it to do quickly and easily. Other PIMs have some good parts and some really bad parts, EssentialPIM Pro is consistently very good - the colorful interface and views, contacts, reminders (TSR), searching (love the highlighting), outlining, icons and all the wonderful COLOR. The best part is it's totally FUN! The Pro price is right -- get it and stop looking.
