Contact Management/Project Management Software?

[kristinecfp]

Hi All,

I am looking for a good contact management or project management software. I work with clients, but I don't need to share files with clients. Looking to keep all my projects organized, including who, what, when it's due, notes, etc.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Do you do a lot of outsourcing (or might?) and need to share files with assistants and independent contractors?

[kristinecfp]

Not yet. I will need to hire some help eventually, but right now I don't have anyone that I work with regularly, so no need to share documents.

Outlook (or Eudora) is great for a lot of that if its just for personal use. Both are of course email clients with built in task lists and calendars and reminders. Outside of that, I am not sure what to suggest - but other members may have some good recommendations.

Thanks for the suggestions. I just looked at Outlook 2007 and it has some improvements over Outlook 2003 that will help with contact/project management. Still not as robust as I would like, but it's getting better. I need a new laptop soon, so I'll upgrade at that time.

In the meantime, I did find a to-do list program on the web that I really like so far. It's called Toodledo and you can find it here: http://www.toodledo.com/views/index.php

I'm still very interested to hear other's recommendations though!

Thanks,
Kristine
