Many of us have been using Personal Information Managers (PIMs). Well devices like the Zaurus, Psion and HP devices now have competition on the Internet.
Infoworld recently (10May1999) reviewed a great number of online PIMs. They tabulated the features and listed the planners in two tiers. They consider Visto Briefcase to be the most full-featured in tier one.
Tier One included:
Visto Briefcase also won the Editor's Choice award from PC Magazine.
Tier Two included:
If you check out only two of the above, check out Bullwhip Extranet and Uniplanet (offers Microsoft Outlook synchronization).
Several of the PIMs support public and private groups and have features (including calendars and task lists) that are worth considering!
Ruskin Software Technology also offers applications for Windows CE devices.
While creating this page and checking the links, we signed up for Visto Briefcase, Bullwhip Extranet, AnyDay and Uniplanet. We were easily able to import an address book from Microsoft Outlook to Visto Briefcase. E-mail me and let me know what you do or what you like!
