M-RICK i think the interface is clunky and messy, and with a lot of contacts the application begins to be very very slow.

CENTROVELA Do you think Adobe, Apple or Microsoft are stupid to make manuals for their software? If you want to be serious think it over.......

SAMPLER OS X 10.4.11 (fresh), PB G4, no import managers or application enhancers Import of a single Calendar with about 50-60 events for 14 months has stalled for over an hour while "saving database". Console shows a program "atos" inside the Contactizer has crashed with only the following in the crash log Library not loaded: /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/Symbolication.framework/Versions/A/Symbolication Referenced from: /Applications/Contactizer Pro.app/Contents/Resources/atos Too bad. I guess I'll terminate the process and uninstall Contactizer. And, no, I don't feel it necessary to write to support about an app that I registered but never had a chance to try. My only other comment is that I would have liked the ability to restrict the import of email and ical events by date.

ANG What about adding the tasks in the custom projects (it's possible to add steps, but under each step, we have to add each time the repetitive task) ?

BUMBLEB I recently gave the developers some ideas for how this could be improved, and they were very open, so expect to see this improved in the nearby future.

TANKKNIGHT When I got fed up with NUDC I tried several alternative and finally settled on Contactizer Pro. It has been working pretty well and I've gotten used to its quirks. I actually have no problem even to recommend Contactizer Pro. However, while I recommend the application and will keep using it I would strongly recommend that any time the app wants to update or MU shows an update to backup/copy your current version and in your library to backup/copy the application support folder. Its happened 3 times to me where the new/latest version will have some strange bugs and it has been extremely nice to just trash it and go back to the previous version. I don't know if it is my PPC Quad G5 showing it uniqueness (again) or that the support team for this app doesn't care, but they have never responded to any bug reports that I have submitted. So I just go to my backup and wait to try the next version. MU is showing version 3.7.5, but Contactizer Pro states that version 3.8.0 is available. It has several major problems on my Mac, so I filed the bug reports and dropped back to 3.7.5. As usual I haven't received a response, but than I don't expect one.

PHALERON Contactizer (which I have been using since its debut) could always be more, so I will not rate it from a wish-list perspective. At the time I wanted to get Daylite, which I could not afford. CP came at my budget's borderline and I bought it thinking I was getting second best. Since then I have seen CP refine the interface and workflow and add features that could have well justified a version upgrade (or two). The app is extremely stable. I cannot remember it ever crashing on me, not even during a period of severe hard disk issues. It is the app that is always running in the background (though I recently discovered it does not need to), allowing me to stay on top of my business. The interface is comprehensible and relatively easy with a good depth of features. The custom email templates are great. Associating one client to another is easy. Everything is so easily accessible, emails, URLs, work files, related contacts, related tasks, etc. There are some weak areas like the ability to form custom client checklists and ratings, gant charts, sending batches of more than 20 mails, yellow page support for all EU countries, but I anticipate the next version will not disappoint.

DENNY DOUBLEPLUS MARKETING This one is a love-hate relationship. The power of Contactizer Pro is VERY real. It has a lot of ins and outs for storing and accessing information. I recently used it's bulk email capability and was completely impressed! My major concern is however, how difficult it is to move around this program. The GUI (graphic user interface) is a bear to work with. Buttons just don't seem to be in the right place, and the icons are completely indeterminable as to their intended function. It's better than a Windows app, but it just hasn't move to the Mac standards. Some spit and polish on the GUI would help this one rise a star or two.

ANONYMOUS I can no way to copy the usual contact data to paste it into a letter. Seems like a pretty basic requirement for contact mamagement software. No rating yet - still playing with it.

This version requires a licence upgrade for pre-v3.5 licensees. This is strange, given that we are not up to v4 yet. Be prepared to downgrade after trial period runs out.
