award-winning planner and personal information organizer.
EssentialPIM Free is perfect for any home user who needs a personal information manager to plan daily
activities, keep To Do tasks in shape, take notes, manage contacts, but doesn't want to buy an expensive
PIM with bloatware features that will never be used. EssentialPIM Free can automatically import data
from Outlook, TreePad, Google calendar or any other manager and store all data in a single place, where
all information bits are interconnected.
The software lets you print any portion of data, save it to HTML, vCard, iCal, RTF, CSV, TXT or export
it to MS Outlook. All data can be securely protected with 128-bit encryption. A portable version of

"I run a busy secretarial service, I am also a Rotarian, I belong to a business networking organization
and I'm an active member in my local Twinning Association and local Green Party," says Ashley Price, APA
Secretarial, Lewes, Sussex, England. "So this gives you an idea of how busy I am. EssentialPIM keeps me
organized, I know when my appointments are, where I am supposed to be, who I am meeting, what I need to
do, and also have all my contacts in one place. A great, simple to use, but extremely powerful little
program. Well-done to all those who design and program it."

can provide you with a solution.
