Personal organizer. Personal organizer for every taste and color. What can an organizer do?

Basic information

In the 21st century, the organizer is more often understood as software for PC and mobile devices. Their absolute advantages are a large amount of input data, the installation of automatic reminders. Organizers may vary. There are, for example, highly specialized organizers: recipe organizer, finance organizer, music collection organizer.

The organizer is a time management tool. Preliminary planning of affairs helps to increase the fruitfulness of any activity, both personal and professional. Therefore, a person who advises organizations and individuals in the field of improving the efficiency of time management is also sometimes called an “organizer”. There is even a National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO) in the USA.

Pocket personal computers

The online organizer differs from the regular organizer program in that it is not installed on the local computer, at the workplace.

In accordance with our official duties, we have to perform a certain list of tasks every day, do not forget about scheduled meetings and events, make the necessary calls in a timely manner, quickly find the necessary telephone numbers and other contact information, etc. To successfully plan upcoming affairs, complete them as quickly as possible and at the same time not forget anything - few people can do this. And therefore, from time immemorial, to plan cases, store contact information and remind themselves of upcoming business, people used improvised means: flip calendars, completely covered with phone numbers and memos, notebooks and all kinds of “commemoration” notepads.

Everything changed with the advent of computers, when electronic organizers appeared among the first programs running under DOS, in their initial form they only made it possible to more conveniently organize the storage of documents and take notes. Subsequently, computer organizer programs learned not only to store information, organize and quickly find phones, but also to remind you of upcoming events, plan a working day, manage the priorities of planned work, and even interact with other components of a computer office, such as an e-mail client. Moreover, online organizers appeared, in particular, the well-known Beep.ru (http://www.beep.ru/), access to which was possible at any time and from anywhere using cell phone with WAP browser.

Standard functions of organizers are now equipped with mail clients, such as Microsoft Outlook, which, as a result of their development, have turned into full-featured information managers and are designed to systematically manage the activities of the entire company as a whole and each of its divisions and each employee individually. They are focused primarily on working in a local corporate network and allow you not only to create your own schedule, but also to coordinate it with other employees of the organization, and if necessary, to make appropriate reminder entries in the electronic "calendars" of colleagues.

However, for personal use Microsoft program Outlook, for all its indisputable merits, is not always suitable. There are two main reasons for this: the program requires a lot of “living space”, and its capabilities often significantly exceed the needs of most users and remain unclaimed: even not most users choose Microsoft Outlook as an email client, many prefer, for example, The Bat!. In such a situation, it is better to stop at an alternative version of the organizer program, which will require fewer resources, while implementing all the necessary functions for organizing information storage and planning.

RedBox Organizer is probably the most popular organizer in the world, having received many prestigious and well-deserved awards (ZDNet 5-Star Top Pick, AOL Application Top Pick, PC World's Hot Shareware Pick, etc.). This multifunctional application includes an event planner, a calendar-diary with the ability to draw up a daily routine, a task list, contacts with the ability to store graphic images and separate contacts into sections, a detailed address book, a notepad and other classic organizer modules. The program provides quick and convenient access to personal and business information, always warns you in advance about any planned tasks and events, makes sure that there are no overlaps in your schedule, allows you to instantly find the necessary data, as well as send e-mails and publish information on the Internet.

The built-in import and export wizard will allow you to import information into the system in *.txt and *.csv formats. If necessary, the program can run in the background - then only the icon in the system tray will indicate that it is loaded.

In addition, unlike other organizers, RedBox Organizer has several original features. For example, thanks to the Globe module (Globe), the program is able to measure the distance between different cities and determine the difference in time zones, as well as find out how long the flight will take on the route of interest. The Expenses module will help you manage your home bookkeeping by scrupulously taking into account all expenses.

The program provides color marking of scheduled meetings and calls and provides a more complete option than in other similar programs for storing information. So, for example, usually about 4-5 information tabs are provided for each contact record, and in Time & Chaos there are as many as 9, and up to 20 custom fields can be additionally entered. In addition, contacts, appointments and tasks can be accompanied by freely formatted explanations, for which a choice of fonts and font sizes is possible. Other contact features include email client integration (clicking on a contact's address will load the email client and create a message to the contact) and link to the contact's location map taken from the MapQuest Web site.

Time & Chaos features a simple and user-friendly interface that allows you to perform many operations faster. For example, due to the fact that appointments and calls, the to-do list and contact information are displayed on one screen by default, you can quickly navigate between individual program modules. The toolbar associated with each object allows you to access the object at any time. The extensive use of drag-and-drop capabilities (almost everything can be dragged here with the mouse) speeds up the performance of a variety of actions: for example, when making an appointment, you can simply drag the desired contact to the calendar, etc.

The query mechanism implemented in Time & Chaos is also convenient, allowing you to quickly find the information you need by searching both the entire database as a whole and its individual components and using logical operations if desired. Any data in the program can be divided into different groups, and if necessary, they can be protected with a password. In addition, the necessary information is easy to import from other organizers.

The WireNote organizer, of course, is far from the products presented above, but the program certainly deserves attention. On the one hand, due to its Russian-speaking nature and free of charge, which is important for a large number of Russian users; on the other hand, due to the presence of a number of interesting possibilities.

The program has an original interface - all its windows seem to stick to each other and to the edges of the screen, which is convenient when the program is minimized to the tray and when it is activated from the tray, and all elements have their own text color, background and font color settings.

Like any serious organizer, WireNote allows you to keep a list of tasks and reminders; when a reminder is triggered, the program can launch an application, turn on the sound, turn off the computer, or send a message over the network.

WireNote will help you create notes that can be attached to a specific window, in which case they will appear on the screen when you open the corresponding application or a specific document in this application. In addition, WireNote will help you maintain an address book, exchange messages via local network and filter incoming mail. If WireNote is installed on recipients, files can be attached to messages.

Every day we all have to solve a certain list of tasks, remember scheduled meetings and events, make the right calls in a timely manner, quickly find the right phones and other contact information, etc. Alas, to successfully plan upcoming affairs, complete them as quickly as possible and at the same time not forget about anything - few people can do this. And therefore, from time immemorial, to plan cases, store contact information and remind ourselves of upcoming events, we had to use improvised means - say, a regular flip calendar or various kinds of notebooks in conjunction with a notebook. It is clear that this is not the most convenient way now - it will be much more efficient to use one of the programs designed to be used as personal organizers. The only question is how to find the only organizer that will be the best for you. This is not easy, because the choice of programs of this class on the market today is simply huge - only Download.com offers more than four hundred such applications, and their capabilities, at first glance, are very similar. Of course, we will not analyze the entire range of Download.com organizers, but will limit ourselves to applications with a Russian-language interface. But here, at first glance, everything is quite similar - tasks, contacts, notes. But already on the second, everything turns out to be more complicated - some programs are very easy to use, others will have to be dealt with, somewhere operations are performed in one click, and in other applications, several actions will have to be performed to achieve the same result. Some solutions allow you to simply store all the diverse information (tasks, contacts, etc.) in one place, so that you can quickly find it all later. Others, in addition to this, will also allow you to effectively plan your day or even carry out long-term planning (here you should not confuse ordinary work with tasks with full-fledged planning - these are completely different things). And, finally, some organizers are modest and unpretentious, others simply amaze with their showiness and magnificence. So, frankly, there are plenty to choose from.

EssentialPIM 3.12

Developer: Astonsoft Ltd.
Distribution size: EssentialPIM Free - 4.79 MB; EssentialPIM Pro - 7.48 MB
Spreading: The shareware EssentialPIM is a multifunctional organizer that, in its capabilities, reaches the level of a personal information manager (PIM). Includes a full toolkit for working with the calendar, task list, notes, contacts and email, can be used as a task scheduler. It has a wide range of information import / export capabilities and is able to synchronize data with Outlook, Google Calendar, as well as with PDAs and smartphones running under Windows control Mobile or PalmOS (Pro edition only). The database can be protected with a password, and the database can also be locked when the program is minimized to tray or after a specified number of minutes of inactivity, which is regulated through the program settings. The organizer can be launched from portable USB drives, for which a special portable version - EssentialPIM Pro Portable. At the same time, the data is securely encrypted using the Rijndael (128-bit key) or Blowfish (448-bit key) methods, which eliminates information leakage in case of loss of the flash drive. The program (Russian-language localization is available) is presented in two editions: free Free and paid Pro, a detailed comparison of editions is available at the following address. The Free version can be downloaded and used completely free of charge, the demo version of the Pro version is functional for 30 days and has a number of functional limitations: the number of records created, the number of synchronizations, etc. The cost of the commercial version of EssentialPIM Pro is $ 20. Immediately after launching the program, if found in Outlook or Outlook Express, it will offer to import data from these solutions - you can refuse this and carry out this operation later using the "File" > "Synchronization" command. The interface of EssentialPIM is convenient and very carefully thought out - one might say, in the style of extra-class solutions (that is, everything you need is available and, at the same time, nothing superfluous). The main window contains two panels. The left panel (it can be disabled via the "View" menu) is a control panel that provides convenient access to the calendar, main actions and main program modules. There are seven such modules - "Today", "Diary", "To Do", "Notes", "Contacts", "Mail" and "Basket". The list of elements of the group selected on the control panel opens in the right pane. All item types are grouped into folders and subfolders as needed. Viewing any type of document is very convenient, since they open in the main window (and this is faster), and not in the additional one, as in many of the other solutions discussed. The "Notes" module allows you to store any text and graphic information, as well as files attached to it. Text can not only be entered directly, but also pasted via the clipboard or dragged from other programs. When pasting, you can embed unformatted text (the "Paste as Plain Text" command from the context menu) or formatted (by default). The formatting options are impressive - you can even insert tables, superscripts, subscripts, symbols, and working links. Any note can include multiple sheets (EssentialPIM Pro only) that are managed in the same way as in Excel. Implemented import of notes from MS Outlook, as well as text files (RTF/TXT) and KeyNote and TreePad files. When filling out contact information on the "Contacts" tab, data is entered on four tabs: "Personal data", "Job data", "Notes" and "Picture". The first two tabs indicate the basic information about the contact, and the list of fields can be expanded with custom ones. On the "Notes" and "Drawing" tabs, text comments are entered and a photo is added. In addition, you can attach some files to the contact. It is possible to import contacts from MS Outlook, as well as Windows Address Book (WAB) and CSV files. It is easy for the selected contact to send an email by clicking on the email address or go to their web page, if available. The To Do tab provides task management. Each task (or "case" in the interpretation of the developers) can contain, in addition to the category description, priority, due date and reminders (only in EssentialPIM Pro) and can be repeated according to some principle. It is possible to sort tasks by fields and filter them according to various criteria, the latter is done through the context menu. The to-do list can be placed on several sheets - for example, the first sheet can be taken for work, the second for home, etc. Depending on the category assigned to the tasks, they are colored in different colors. The "Diary" module provides management of meetings in the mode of one day, week, month or year. The general data structure for creating appointments is exactly the same as for tasks. But after creating a meeting, you can move the mouse over time and change their duration (also with the mouse), which greatly simplifies scheduling. Even the title of the meeting can be changed without opening the meeting editing window - in general, everything is like in the best English-language planners. So this program can be considered as a complete tool for planning working time. The "Mail" module is a fully functional mail client that supports POP3 and IMAP protocols. Accounts it is configured in the same way as in any other client (command "Service" > "Mailboxes"). There is no limit to the number of boxes. The "Today" module provides convenient simultaneous access to the list of meetings scheduled for the current day, cases and received correspondence.

C Organizer 4.0

Developer: CSoftLab
Distribution size: C-Organizer Pro - 14.8 MB; C-Organizer Std - 5.33 Mb
Spreading: Shareware C-Organizer is a convenient and multifunctional organizer that allows you to manage events, tasks, contacts, notes and passwords. It can be used as a work schedule and personal events planner, as it provides convenient work with events in calendar mode. C-Organizer can work with several databases (only in the Pro version), you can switch between them directly while working ("File" > "Database Management"). It is possible to protect access to the database with a password. It is possible to synchronize data with PDAs and smartphones (Pocket PC/Smart Phone), as well as Palm-devices (Pro edition only). The program (Russian-language localization is available) is presented in two editions: basic C-Organizer Std (version 3.7) and extended C-Organizer Pro (version 4.0), a detailed comparison of editions is available at the following address. Demo versions of the program are fully functional and workable for 30 days. The cost of the commercial version of C-Organizer Std is $24.95 (in Softkey.ru - 200 rubles), C-Organizer Pro - $49.95 (in Softkey.ru - 700 rubles). By default, C-Organizer starts with an English interface. To switch to the Russian interface, select the "View" > "Language" > "Russian" command in the program window. The program has a convenient, pleasant and intuitive interface adopted for the tree structure of organizers, and there are several types of interface and color schemes that can be changed through the "View" menu. In the main window of the program, by default, there is a navigation panel on the left with a calendar, a folder subwindow and six tabs: "Calendar", "Tasks", "Contacts", "Passwords", "Notes" and "Events". The right side displays the items (say, tasks) corresponding to the selected tab. Any note, task, appointment, event or contact can be turned into a "sticker" ("Open as sticker" button) - this sticker will hang on the screen even after the application window is closed (but not unloaded from memory).

Each type of elements (notes, tasks, etc.) can be divided into thematic folders for convenience. It is more convenient to create a folder through the context menu; if desired, you can assign different icons to different folders.

The "Notes" tab stores arbitrary information (with formatting, pictures, tables and hyperlinks), to which it is also easy to attach files. When creating a new note, text can be pasted from the clipboard or simply dragged from other programs. Spell checking is theoretically declared, but after turning it on (the command "Spelling and thesaurus" > "Check spelling" from the context menu), it turns out that Russian words are completely unfamiliar to the program.

Work with contacts is conveniently organized. Information about contacts is divided into three tabs: "General", "Description" and "Attachments". Traditional fields are placed on the first of the tabs - you can delete unnecessary fields, and add missing ones at your discretion. The second and third tabs are for storing comments and related files. In order to simplify the filling of the contact database with a self-configured list of fields, it is possible to use templates (the "Templates" button in the contact editing window), which is very convenient, but only available in the Pro version. Contacts that have a mobile phone, email address and web page are marked with special icons and are immediately identified among other records. By clicking on the corresponding icons, you can call a contact, send an email, or switch to his web page. Contacts can be viewed without opening the corresponding windows by clicking once on the icon in the form of double arrows (this icon is on the right side of the entry). It is possible to import contacts (as well as calendar, notes and tasks) from text files in CSV and TXT formats (command "File" > "Import").

The password storage module is designed to store registration information, passwords, logins, account numbers, etc. The developers also recommend using this module as a bookmark manager for quick access to URLs.

National holidays appear as events in the organizer - however, the program knows only about US national holidays, Russian ones, apparently, are recommended to be created independently. Tasks represent a certain list of cases and are displayed in the list one after another, regardless of their time reference. Each task has a start date, end date, category, and percentage complete. You can also set a priority for a task, a reminder method, and add detailed description(a kind of note with normal formatting). Any task can be performed once or periodically - daily, after a certain number of days, weekly, monthly, yearly. It should be noted that the tasks do not have an exact time reference.

The "Calendar" module allows you to work with personal events tied to time (these are not tasks that are not shown in the calendar). These events can be displayed for one day, work week, regular week, month and year. In general, it is convenient to work with events - they are created by double-clicking, the duration of any of the events can be increased with the mouse, it is just as easy to move events from one time to another. You can even change the title of an event without opening the corresponding window. So this solution is quite suitable for full-fledged work planning.

Exiland Assistant 3.0

Developer: Exiland Software
Distribution size:- 4.49 MB
Spreading: Shareware Exiland Assistant is a multifunctional organizer that provides work with notes, contacts, tasks, Internet links and events. It can be used as a customer database and enterprise database, as it allows you to manage even very large amounts of data. It is possible to synchronize contacts of persons with mobile devices (PDA and mobile phones) via MS Outlook 2000/2002/2003. Password protection for access to the database is provided. The demo version of the program (there is a Russian-language localization) is fully functional and operational for 30 days. The cost of the commercial version is 395 rubles. Exiland Assistant provides two modes of operation - personal (for one machine) and corporate (for installation on multiple machines of users with simultaneous use by these users single base data). To work in corporate mode, you need the server part of the electronic organizer - the Exiland Assistant Server program of the same version as the client, which is purchased separately. The price of Exiland Assistant Server depends on the period of use of the solution: a license for 12 months is offered for 2810 rubles, a license for 24 months - 3610 rubles, a license with an unlimited period of use - 4300 rubles. The interface of Exiland Assistant is strict, very elegant and friendly. The main window has two panels - on the left there is a traditional folder panel (here they are called groups) and a search area, on the right is a list of items in the selected group. All elements supported in the program (notes, contacts, etc.) are records in their classical form (we can say that they are approximately the same as in any DBMS - in the simplest case, for example, in Microsoft Access). This leaves a certain imprint on the process of working with elements that cannot be quickly created and edited, and to get the result you have to perform more manipulations than in other solutions. Although in the end everything is clearly classified and can be quickly found. We didn’t really like this nuance, because the author, due to the peculiarities of temperament, always needs a quick result. But in general, this, of course, is a matter of taste, because everything else (that is, the quality of the program and its functionality) is at its best. Notes in the program are plain text without formatting (by default) or with simple formatting (the text design option is switched by the corresponding buttons in the note creation window). Note text can be entered, pasted from the clipboard, or dragged from other documents with the mouse.

Contacts are of two types - persons (for personal use, it can be just friends and acquaintances; for corporate use, it can be the company's clients) and enterprises (that is, the customer base of legal entities). Each contact type has its own list of fields. For example, in the case of persons, this would be a basic data set (last name, first name, etc.) and an additional one. Additional data is divided into seven tabs: "Means of communication" (telephone, ICQ, e-mail, pager, etc.), "Personal data" (birthday, hobbies, etc.), "Additional info", etc. List of fields on each of the tabs is strictly fixed. However, in reality, this fixed list of fields can be corrected by adding missing fields (Administration > Customize Fields command). In addition, a person can have a photo added. To view data about a specific person, you do not need to open its card (that is, the editing window) - just click on the corresponding entry with the mouse. To speed up the search for the desired contact, you can filter contacts by gender. Any contact is easy to call right there (including by dialing a phone number via Skype), send a letter or go to his web page. It is possible to import contacts from address books of email programs via a CSV file and synchronize Exiland Assistant contacts with Microsoft Outlook (menu item "File" > "Import / Export" > "Synchronize contacts with Microsoft Outlook"). Links allow you to store useful Internet addresses with a brief annotation and download the relevant sites with one click in your computer's default browser. It is possible to import Internet links from the Internet Explorer Favorites directory (command "File" > "Import/Export" > "Import Favorite Internet Links"),

Tasks, like other objects, can be grouped according to their purpose - say, personal, work, etc. Each task contains a title, the date when this task must be completed, the date and time of the reminder, the degree of importance of the task, the progress status, the amount of work in hours, days, and so on. You can set the reminder to be periodic (for example, every five days or every 30 minutes) and choose the type of reminder (soft blinking of the icon in the SysTray area near the clock or pop-up with a reminder window), the sound for ordinary and important tasks, and the type of animation in the SysTray. Events are understood as Russian holidays and various events of persons (birthdays, anniversaries, etc.), about the approach of which the program can also carefully remind. As for the calendar-diary and planner, such objects, despite the fact that Exiland Assistant is positioned by the developers as a solution that includes an electronic diary with a convenient task scheduler, are basically absent in the program. Yes, there are tasks with a built-in reminder, but not a scheduler. The only thing that is implemented in this sense is the ability to filter tasks, for example, you can turn on the display of only today's tasks, tomorrow's tasks, etc. But nothing more - there is no question of any planning, that is, a simple and convenient mechanism for moving tasks in time on the timeline and changing their duration.

WinOrganizer 4.1

Developer: The Golden Section labs
Distribution size:- 6.5 MB
Spreading: Shareware WinOrganizer is a pretty handy organizer. Designed to organize events, tasks, contacts and notes in a tree structure, while any of the elements of this structure can be password protected. It allows you to work with tasks in the calendar and scheduler mode, however, the program's capabilities here are, in fact, limited to one view. Simultaneous work with several databases is possible. The demo version of the program (there is a Russian-language localization) is fully functional and operational for 30 days. The cost of the commercial version depends on the license: a license for individuals - 750 rubles, a license for legal entities and commercial use - 1500 rubles. WinOrganizer has an intuitive, standard tree-like interface. In the main window on the left there is a tree of documents, on the right - the contents of the selected document, more often a list of records, in addition to which there may also be a comment and a list of attached files (they will be located in separate subwindows). In the tree, in separate folders, you can store six types of items: notes, events, tasks, contacts, cards and passwords - each type with its own icon. You can drag objects around the tree in any way you want.

Notes are created in the built-in text editor, in which the text can be formatted in the desired way (even inserting tables, using superscript / subscript characters, etc.) and supplemented with images. It is possible to copy text to a work note from the clipboard or drag it from another application. Moreover, spelling is automatically checked in the entered text, and incorrectly written words are underlined. Notes can be imported from TXT and RTF files (the "Tools" > "Import" command).

Data about each of the contacts is stored in separate fields and is divided into six tabs for convenience. Basic information is entered on the first three tabs: "General" (the most frequently used fields), "Home" (detailed information about the person) and "Work" (detailed information about the organization in which he works). In addition, there are also tabs "Comment" (any text notes), "All fields" (generalized information on all fields for the current contact) and "Notification" (arbitrary notification regarding the contact). Let's select additional custom fields from the list. To simplify the search for the desired contact in a large database, the function of selecting a contact by the first letter in the contact name is provided. If desired, you can call the selected contact, send a letter to his email box through the installed mail client, or go to his web page. It is possible to import contacts from TXT and CSV files. The password storage module allows you to use the organizer to remember passwords, serial numbers, invoices, credit card details, etc., access to this folder can be password protected.

Cards are a special type of document with an arbitrary structure, which may contain a certain set of fields, a comment in the form of a text document, and an alert. To be honest, we could not guess for what information this type of document would be useful. Events mean holidays, and when an event occurs, the program can not only remind you of it, but, if necessary, also launch an external application.

Tasks have all the capabilities of events and additionally have a number of additional fields, such as the percentage of completion of the task, the performer, priority, the status of the task and the date of its completion, you can also specify the start and end time of the execution. As for events, it is allowed to set advance notification for tasks, the latter can be done through the Chameleon Clock program, if one is installed on the computer, since WinOrganizer can switch notifications to it.

You can also work with tasks through the "Today" module, which in this solution provides a calendar-daily to display all tasks and events in one place. To call the "Today" module, use the "Tools" > "Today" command or click on the "Today" button located in the lower left corner of the main window. This module can display data in two modes: "Calendar" (command "View" > "Calendar") and "Scheduler" ("View" > "Day"/"Week"/"Month"). When working in any of the modes, there is a navigation panel with a calendar for the current month and buttons for switching modes on the left, and scheduled tasks on the right. The scheduler mode displays a detailed picture of the load not only on a specific day, but also per week and month. As for the planning process itself - that is, creating tasks and events, moving them along the work schedule, changing their duration, etc., then in this module you can only adjust existing tasks, and then in a very limited amount (say, change the time at task will fail). Moreover, this cannot be done quickly either, since any changes are made not in the calendar / scheduler window, but in the task properties window. To be honest, we really didn't like this one. That is, by and large, the "Today" module provides only a visual representation of the already created work schedule, and cannot be used for planning in principle.

Info Angel 4.2

Developer: Angelic Software
Distribution size:- 3.52 MB
Spreading: shareware Info Angel - convenient and simple organizer. Allows you to work with notes, contacts and Internet bookmarks, organizing them in the desired folder structure. Work with tasks through the special module "Calendar" is also provided. Info Angel can work with several databases and can be installed on a flash drive, which will provide mobile access to information from any computer. The demo version of the program (there is a Russian-language localization) is fully functional and operational for 30 days. The cost of the commercial version is 29.95 dollars, for Russian-speaking users in the Softkey.ru store - 500 rubles. The program has a convenient, pleasant and intuitive interface with a traditional tree structure for most organizers. In the left panel of the main window there is a tree of folders with documents lying in them, while different types of documents correspond to different icons for more visual orientation. The right panel displays the contents of a particular folder or document. In addition to folders, the tree stores notes, contacts, and bookmarks, which are handled strictly through the context menu; dragging documents from folder to folder is not provided.

To work with notes, there is a simple built-in text editor that allows you to format text and insert pictures into it. It is possible to copy text to a note from the clipboard or drag it from other applications. You can import notes from KeyNote and TreePad program files (the "File" > "Import" command).

Information in contacts is stored traditionally - in separate fields, for convenience it is divided into four tabs: "Basic", "Personal", "Work", "Notes". Each tab contains a set of fields that allow you to store detailed information about a person. In addition to standard fields, there are fields whose type can be set independently by selecting from the list. There is functionality for automatically dialing a contact's number, generating a letter to a contact and opening a web site associated with it. You can import contacts from CSV files (File > Import).

As for bookmarks, you can not only store them, but also open them in the built-in browser (of course, when connected to the Internet) and save viewed links on disk, which, however, is quite slow.

To work with tasks, Info Angel provides the "Calendar" module, which is a regular diary that will help you schedule things for any day of the week, as well as set reminders of important events. You can call the calendar from the "Tools" > "Calendar" menu. In the upper left corner of the diary there is a calendar for the current month, in which a date is selected - while the list on the right displays all the events scheduled for that day. Tasks can be one-time and periodic, which is regulated through the "Recurrence" switch. It is easy to assign a reminder to any event (a sound signal and opening a pop-up window), such entries are marked in the list with a special icon. Tasks are easy to move from place to place with the mouse, and the size of the record, depending on the duration of the event, is changed by the usual stretching / shrinking. However, viewing tasks is possible only for a specific day - that is, to see, for example, a picture of the weekly load will not work.

iChronos 3.0

Developer: SmartProjects
Distribution size:- 3.82 MB
Spreading: Shareware Developers present iChronos as a figurative-symbolic organizer designed to store data in verbal (verbal), pictorial (figurative), graphic, sound, symbolic, parametric and other existing forms of displaying information. Translated into "Russian", this organizer allows you to manage notes, contacts, tasks, calls, meetings and events that are stored in folders and correspond to a specific project - that is, in fact, a database. There is also an analogue of the calendar - only not the usual one, but in the form of a time tape. Provides functionality to protect the database with a password. The program can be run from any type of removable media without installation. The demo version of the program (there is a Russian-language localization) is fully functional and operational for 30 days. The cost of the commercial version is 299 rubles, the developers provide several free ways to purchase the program (translate the interface, make a banner, etc.). The iChronos interface, frankly, is completely different from the interfaces of traditional organizer programs and is very effective. In the main window, on the left, there is the usual tree-like object list panel, but the main part of the window is occupied by the working field, on which all project objects (folders, contacts, notes, meetings, etc.) are stored. Workspace objects can be moved around it and scaled, as well as attach external files and folders to them - and you can make shortcuts on them or copy them directly to the project, which makes sense when working with the program from a flash drive. Under the working field is a timeline. Notes (however, like any other type of supported objects) are created through the context menu called in the main window, or by clicking on the program icon in the system tray. The text of an open note can not only be entered, but also copied via the clipboard or dragged from another application. Formatting is supported, but at the most minimal level, but you can select different icons for different notes. It's easy to turn any note into an editable sticky note on the Windows desktop by enabling the "Show on Windows desktop" checkbox in the note's properties.

The data entered for contacts is divided into two tabs: "Properties" and "Notes". On the first tab, a typical minimal set of contact details is entered, supplemented by "such highly relevant" information as the color of clothing and a schematic (in the form of an icon) image appearance object. Any text with formatting is entered into the text of the note to the contact. It is possible to import contacts from Outlook and export contacts to a Word document.

As for tasks, calls, meetings and events, all these types of objects are created in the same way, and they store approximately the same information. For any of the named types of objects, it is allowed to indicate the beginning and end, duration, priority and the need for a reminder. Any of the objects of this plan can be performed once or with some frequency - daily, weekly, annually, annually on a strictly specified date, after a certain period. In addition, objects can be painted in different colors and supplemented with text notes.

As for the calendar-daily and planner, iChronos has a timeline as their replacement, which automatically displays all tasks, meetings and similar events for the day, week or month. This makes it easy to identify overlapping events and adjust plans. It is easy to do this right on the tape by squeezing / stretching some of the events with the mouse and / or moving them in time. So the program can be used as a planning tool. True, here it is worth noting the immediately obvious problem of choosing the right day, since there is no calendar with dates on the ribbon, as in the entire main window. However, the calendar can be temporarily called up on the screen from the system tray menu ("Calendar" command).

AVS Organizer 8.10

Developer: AVS Soft
Distribution size:- 3.84 MB
Spreading: shareware AVS-Organizer - an organizer with a very effective interface, designed to work with notes, contacts and tasks. In addition, it includes a set of sticky notes, a simple email client and a chat. Also, with the help of AVS-Organizer, it is easy to get exchange rates for every day. The entrance to the program can be password protected. data printing and chat are not available for it, you can set only one mailbox and create only one sticky sheet.The cost of the commercial version is 500 rubles.AVS-Organizer has an unusual graphical interface in the form of a notebook, which is easily changed using skins.And the impression is right let's say it produces - three-dimensional icons and translucent windows that do not usually appear on the screen, dropping out from above, moving buttons, etc. In general, there are a lot of various animation effects.Alas, this, in our opinion, is all the advantages of this organizer and end, since working with him is extremely inconvenient and tiring - first of all, due to unconventionality (as a result, every little thing is not done completely m in the usual way). All elements that you can work with are located on separate tabs located at the bottom of the working window. There are seven such tabs - "Contacts", "Notes", "Mail", "Diary", "Sticky Sheet", "Chat" and "Options".

Here, notes are understood as arbitrary text formatted in the simplest way - without pictures. This text is either typed manually or copied via the clipboard. Any note can be attached to the desktop as a "sticky" sheet by selecting the "Pin to Screen" command from the context menu on the open note.

Contacts have a minimum set of data fields and a photo. In the general list of contacts, next to the title of a particular contact, there may be icons (the picture depends on the selected cover), which indicate that this contact has a photo, www-address, e-mail and/or phone number. To quickly find the desired contact, you can use the alphabet.

"Diary" is designed to store tasks for the current day. There are two types of tasks - with and without a specific time - those tasks that were created without specifying the exact time are always placed at the very beginning of the task list. It's easy to assign a reminder to any task. The task can be either one-time or periodic (daily, weekly, monthly, yearly) and be completed or not yet. There are no options for quickly changing the start time and duration of tasks in this program.

Tasks can also be viewed through the "Today" module, which is loaded by clicking on the command of the same name in the command menu - in this case, the tasks are displayed in conjunction with the nearest Russian holidays. To be honest, we did not see any sense in this section (at least in such a modification of it).

As for the "Mail" and "Chat" modules, the usefulness of these modules, given the level of their functionality, seems doubtful to us.

Conclusion

We settled on several of the most popular personal organizers with a Russian-language interface. At the same time, we limited ourselves to only the bare minimum of information about each, and we are well aware that the description, for example, of such rather serious tools as EssentialPIM, in our presentation turned out to be very modest. However, we did not set ourselves the task of considering all the possibilities of applications, but limited ourselves to only basic functions. As a conclusion, I would like to note that any personal organizer will greatly simplify the process of managing contacts, notes and tasks. But which one to choose is the question. If the opportunity to impress your colleagues is in the first place for you, then, no doubt, you should pay attention to the iChronos and AVS-Organizer programs - success will be guaranteed. Although in terms of ease of use, they are noticeably behind any other of the solutions considered. And the color design of these non-traditional organizers, in our opinion, is not very successful - therefore, users who have to work at a computer for many hours will find it difficult to apply such solutions due to excessive eye fatigue. Showiness is showiness, but there is a parameter that is much more important - this is the functionality of the program. This is where EssentialPIM Pro comes first (see table). This multifunctional application will not only provide convenient work with contacts, notes and tasks, but also allow you to efficiently plan appointments on the calendar and work with mail quite normally. Moreover, this organizer is also the most intelligently planned in terms of the efficiency of the operations performed - that is, many actions in it are performed in fewer operations. But the worst thing from the position of ergonomics is the Exiland Assistant program, although the capabilities of this product are also impressive. Moreover, this is the only one among the considered solutions that can be used to maintain not only ordinary contacts, but even very large customer bases and enterprise bases, which here play the role of a kind of contact. In addition, this solution can be installed on many user machines while using a single database. Perhaps the Info Angel program claims to be the easiest solution to learn and use, the developers of which stopped at the minimum functionality in terms of managing contacts, notes and tasks and did not burden their brainchild with any excesses. But you can start working with the program after three minutes of acquaintance - and there will be no problems. As for the C-Organizer product, it comes close (albeit a couple of steps behind) in terms of capabilities to EssentialPIM, and the WinOrganizer organizer is a little more functional than Info Angel.

In any of the programs that provide data export, of course, you can export data in your own format.

Dozens of letters, phone calls, meetings, events, a flexible work schedule, where every next day is different from the previous ones, numerous, for each of which you need to prepare an appropriate package of documents ... Is this what your typical day looks like? In this case, you can not do without a personal organizer.

How not to drown in the ocean of affairs?

Until recently, such a daily routine could only describe the director of a large company or a businessman. Today, in an era of universal mobility and social activity, this is becoming the norm for many young people.

This is no longer the serene student body, when, after “serving” the prescribed number of couples, you can go home - so to speak, for a well-deserved rest, and not the kind of work where working days are calm and monotonous and end at a strictly set time. We are lucky to live in an age that is rightly called the age of overabundance of opportunities, information overload. But this not only opens up new horizons, but also creates new problems, because it is not so easy to cope with various cases, contacts, and communications.

Traditional notebooks, schedules and phone books are becoming ineffective. In return, personal electronic organizers come to the rescue, allowing not only to stay afloat in the ocean of affairs, but also to significantly increase productivity.

What can an organizer do?

Depending on the set of features, personal organizers can serve as a simple replacement for a paper diary and / or calendar, or they can also solve many other useful tasks. Such multifunctional organizers are also often referred to as personal information managers. Their goal is to create a universal information space in which all organizational tasks of the user are solved. Indeed, it is very convenient to plan your affairs and create To-Do lists in the same place, keep a contact book, receive mail and messages from social networks, view news from selected sites, store passwords and other confidential information, track time efficiency, maintain personal diary, and even be able to create both instant notes and full-fledged text files. And if you remember that the data saved in the organizer can be synchronized, for example, with the phone book of your smartphone or cloud storage, the tool turns out to be really indispensable and able to accompany you anywhere and everywhere.

A day with an organizer

When you use a personal organizer for a long time, you gradually begin to notice that more and more of the most diverse information migrates to it, and many programs that were previously used for a number of tasks turn out to be no longer in demand. Then you include the organizer in the startup list so that it automatically opens immediately after turning on the computer, and soon you notice that this window remains open most of the working time. What does a typical day look like for a person who organizes his life and work with the help of such a program?

Morning: a cup of coffee and a screen Today» - the start page of the organizer with a brief summary of all the most important for this day. The organizer has already checked mail in all mailboxes registered on different services, collected news from your favorite sites via RSS, displayed a list of the most important tasks (for which you previously set deadlines and priorities). Immediately - a reminder of long-term tasks and projects and overdue tasks. By the way, many organizers allow you to convert important letters into tasks with one click and place them on your calendar.

Now plan your day with Calendar. Here are the standard features known to most from Google Calendar and similar online solutions, with the difference that entries made in the calendar can be linked to other organizer elements. This means, for example, that, having planned a trip to the theater tomorrow, you can link this event with contact book entries, attach important files or notes to it. And the ability to specify the place of events allows you to effectively plan the route for the day, grouping cases by geography.

Well, and most importantly: planning the day not in the form of a simple list, but on a calendar grid, makes you more objectively evaluate your capabilities: if, say, two hours are allotted for the planned, that is how much it will take on the screen. Such visualization simply will not physically allow you to enter more cases than is possible in a limited time, which means that at the end of the day you will not have to lament that most of the plans for some reason remained unfulfilled.

By completing tasks during the day, you can immediately change their status to "completed" - and the organizer will no longer show them to you. A useful bonus that organizer developers and review authors rarely write about: the ability to assign tasks in the calendar to multi-colored categories (for example, Home, Study, Family, Recreation, and so on) is a great tool for analyzing your own time or the so-called timekeeping. By consistently using the organizer for even one week, you can clearly see what colors your life is “painted” in and notice “skews” in your priorities and activities.

If you have an organizer, you can also forget about programs for creating sticky notes on your computer desktop: any note created in this program can be converted into such a sheet. Creation Tool Notes successfully replaces not only paper notebooks and diaries, but also the usual text editors. Indeed, most modern organizers are equipped with a full-fledged text editor, not inferior to the usual Word or Open Office, but do not require opening additional application and creating a separate file for each note, and even organically fit into your single information and organizational space.

This unity is facilitated by the possibility end-to-end search for all types of information. For example, by entering "Ivan Ivanov" in the search field, you will see not only the contacts that match the query, but also the notes where this person is mentioned, as well as the cases to which this contact is "attached".

The organizer will be with you even when you are away from your computer. Smartphone version(and most developers offer apps for both Android and iPhone) will show all the plans and notes created on your home computer or netbook and allow you to create new ones, and when you return home, the information in both versions will be synchronized. The same goes for the contact book: if during the day you met a new person and saved his number in your smartphone, then as soon as the program gets access to the Internet, this information will also appear in the program on your computer.

How to choose?

These are the standard features of personal organizers. Of course, the above is the “maximum program”: not all applications (of which there are many) contain the full scope of the listed features. However, a review of specific developments is not our goal - there are plenty of such reviews today. In addition, the range of organizers is so large that the choice of several of them for a detailed review will inevitably be subjective. For some, the convenience and speed of creating notes are most important, someone needs a multifunctional calendar, and for someone, the functions of the organizer come down to collecting mail.

5 benefits of using a personal organizer

All mail from your numerous mailboxes will be collected in one place.
You will never lose an important note file again because you named it "hjhjkdjkljkld.docx" and saved it in a folder called "New Folder 3".
Your phonebook across all devices, from home computer to your smartphone, will always be up to date.
Soon you will notice that your approach to planning time has become more conscious, and there are much fewer planned and unfulfilled tasks.
You will be able (literally) to see how and get used to analyze the days, weeks and months that have passed and draw conclusions based on this for further planning.

In a word, if for some reason you still do not use a personal organizer, be sure to try it!

And online organizers with additional features: a reminder of upcoming events, protection and synchronization of information.

Organizer is a time management tool. Preliminary planning of affairs helps to increase the fruitfulness of any activity, both personal and professional. Therefore, a person who advises organizations and individuals in the field of improving the effectiveness of time management is also sometimes called an "organizer"; In the United States, there is the National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO).

In the 21st century, the organizer is more often understood as software for PCs and mobile devices.

Computer program organizer

The online organizer differs from the organizer program in that it is not installed on the local computer.

An excerpt characterizing the Personal Organizer

What is this “imprint”?
“Oh, everyone, when they die, comes back for him. When your soul ends its “languishing” in another earthly body, at the moment when it says goodbye to it, it flies to its real Home, and, as it were, “announces” its return ... And then, it leaves this “ seal". But after that, she must again return back to the dense earth, in order to say goodbye forever to who she was ... and a year later, having said “last goodbye”, leave from there ... And then, this free soul comes here to merge with his left part and find peace, waiting for a new journey to the "old world"...
I did not understand then what Atenais was talking about, it just sounded very beautiful ...
And only now, after many, many years (having long ago absorbed the knowledge of my amazing husband, Nikolai, with my “hungry” soul), looking through my funny past for this book today, I remembered Atenais with a smile, and, of course, I realized that , what she called the “imprint”, was just an energy surge that happens to each of us at the moment of our death, and reaches exactly the level that the deceased person managed to reach with his development. And what Atenais then called “farewell” to “who she was” was nothing more than the final separation of all existing “bodies” of the essence from her dead physical body, so that she could now finally leave, and there , on its "floor", to merge with its missing part, the level of development of which, for one reason or another, it did not have time to "reach" while living on earth. And this departure took place exactly one year later.
But I understand all this now, but then it was still very far away, and I had to be content with my own, still childish, understanding of everything that was happening to me, and my own, sometimes erroneous, and sometimes correct, guesses ...
– Do entities on other “floors” also have the same “imprints”? – inquisitive Stella asked with interest.
– Yes, of course they do, only they are different, – Atenais answered calmly. - And not on all "floors" they are as pleasant as here ... Especially on one ...
- Oh, I know! This is probably the "lower"! Oh, you should definitely go and see it! It's so interesting! Stella was already chirping pretty again.
It was simply amazing how quickly and easily she forgot everything that just a minute ago frightened or surprised her, and already again cheerfully tried to learn something new and unknown to her.
- Farewell, young maidens ... It's time for me to leave. May your happiness be eternal... – Atenais said in a solemn voice.
And again she smoothly waved her “winged” hand, as if showing us the way, and the already familiar path, shining with gold, immediately ran in front of us ...
And the marvelous bird woman again quietly sailed in her airy fairy-tale boat, again ready to meet and guide new travelers “searching for themselves”, patiently serving some special, incomprehensible vow of her own ...
- Well? Where are we going, “young maiden”?.. – I asked my little girlfriend smiling.
Why did she call us that? Stella asked thoughtfully. “Do you think that’s what they said where she once lived?”
– I don't know... It must have been a long time ago, but for some reason she remembers it.
- Everything! Let's go further! .. - suddenly, as if waking up, the baby exclaimed.
