Great PIM app with all you need to keep productive and stay on track. A better alternative than Outlook which has degraded over the years but even better due to developer's constant improvement and gr... See more

It’s a bit clunky. You can search for something, but if you want to see where that article sits relative to the others, you have to exit the search mode to view it in its actual context. There’s also... See more

Came to Essential PIM 10 years ago, as a relief from MS Outlook. Rapidly realised its simplicity and potential, and bought the lifetime updates licence. Now I run my life with it as an essential aid... See more

Excellent PIM !!
Excellent PIM ! It does everything. I've been using it for years. Tech help is first rate and fast.
Its a great piece of software
Its a great piece of software. We use the Business Pro Version. Good support
An excellent program
A well thought out and implicated program which does everything you would need and does it well. Any updates are actually beneficial and enhance the programs usability.
New version released
New version released - and it doesn't work!
The sync'ing between PC and android fails. It's been 5 weeks while they've been trying to fix it and no date given as to when it will be accomplished.
If you use this on an android device stay away.

IT is the Best PIM I know
IT is the Best PIM I know. Using it since many years I don't want to miss it. The syncronisation over own WLAN is perfect, no need to use a cloud, but cloud also possible. Mailclient with database and all linkable to calendar, tasks, contacts in the desktop-software makes it to a complete system.

The raccoons all 60 episodes is not on here on Dvd and Blu-ray yet but I want it to be on here on Dvd and Blu-ray
Easy to use
Easy to use, clean design, in short, everything you need for good organization of any business!
Most likely the best PIM Program available.
This is one of the best PIM programs available and I have been through tons of them over 20 years. Very versatile and the GUI is the most responsive I've seen. One thing that sets this application apart from most others is it's configurability. Kudos to the EPIM Team

After a thorough analysis I chose EPIM already many years ago (since release 2.x, I presume).
As solid as a rock, 1000/% reliable, fantastic flexibility, and a wonderful user community and Service Support.
The best PIM I know.
A continue update
Very bad synchronization
As I have already mentioned several times the program is good but the synchronization with google and android is terrible.
Each sync doubles or triples the records. Very bad!!

Highly recommend
Having previously tried several Information Management programmes and found them lacking, either functionally or through poor support, I unreservedly recommend EssentialPIM.
(a) --- It works well, and (b) the Support Team are superb.
The only regret I have --- I wish I had discovered it a long time ago.
It is sad
It is sad, that you don't operate with Linux.
So I cannot use you, as I work with Linux Mint !

Great by itself but sync needs modernisation
As a stand alone program it is great but the sync process with other copies or with android is abysmal.
Great on the pc stand alone good functionality Great security all in one notes contacts email etc.
But
Thes days if it doesn't sync seamlessly with your phone it's not cutting the mustered they seam to have been trying hard to get sync working but without much success. Delets and/or randomly duplicates stuff
So as a stand alone I give a 4 to 5 star but as a package, sorry its only a two star at most
Solid value
Solid value, feature packed, top support. Probably the only CRM you'll ever need.
Excellent
One word: EXCELLENT. Whenever you have a question or a problem you get a quick answer (<1 day).
Interface is easy (looks like the original Outlook interface of Microsoft).
EssentialPIM - My Choice
I adopted EssentialPIM because of continual problems with MS Outlook. I only use the Home version but it has performed faultlessly in the year I've been testing it against two other non-MS applications and will continue with it for the foreseeable future.
Highly recommended PIM!
Amazingly useful software, especially for this retired senior citizen!
EPIM Highly Recommended…
I use EPIM for my contact manager and all scheduling. It works like a Swiss Watch--smoothly and efficiently (but does run fast). When I need clarification, help is a quick and useful response. I don't use the email capability much (yet) but it has a very useful facility to send emails to each contact in a list (ie send newsletter). I most highly recommend this program to anyone needing a scheduler and/or contact manager....and advanced email capabilities.
