Our company ran the demo for this programme briefly (the boss had used
and liked it at a prior job). It seemed to work well but the company
stopped returning phone calls. Weird, they sent us a manual for both the
client and the admin elements free of charge (typically the demo only
shows up with a very brief getting started package) but then nothing. It
also supports unix and OS/2 as I recall.
Another programme is TeamAgenda from a company called Teamsoft. Amongst
its claims is one regarding being well integrated with First Class (e.g.
sharing the user directory).
<http://www.teamsoft.com/> Here is the blurb from their site:
"TeamAgenda is a personal appointment diary and a multi-user scheduling
planner for the Windows and the Macintosh environments. Unlike other day
planners or appointment calendars, TeamAgenda lets you organize not only
your own commitments, but also the commitments of your entire work
group, and any kind of office resources."
I am waiting to see what Qualcomm does with its new Planner.
