Astonsoft heeft versie 11.5 van EssentialPIM uitgebracht. Deze personal information manager maakt het mogelijk om afspraken bij te houden, een adresboek te beheren en e-mails te versturen en ontvangen. Het programma is in diverse talen, waaronder het Nederlands, te gebruiken. EssentialPIM is beschikbaar in een standaard- en een pro-uitvoering. De eerste is gratis, maar heeft minder functies. Zo kan er niet met de clouddiensten van bijvoorbeeld Microsoft, Google, Apple of Dropbox worden gesynchroniseerd. Een compleet overzicht van de onderlinge verschillen is op deze pagina te vinden. De releasenotes voor deze uitgave zien er als volgt uit:
Smart Lists in TasksIf you're someone who likes to stay organized and on top of your tasks, you'll love EssentialPIM's Smart Lists feature. With four different dynamically and automatically populated lists to choose from - All, Important, Flagged, and Completed - you can quickly and easily access the corresponding tasks in a more efficient and effective way than ever before.
Backup your EPIM database to online servicesYou can now easily backup your database to popular cloud storage services like Google Drive, OneDrive, and Dropbox. This means that even if your PC is lost, damaged, or stolen, your precious data will be safely stored in the cloud and easily accessible from any other device with Internet connectivity.
Expandable navigation paneExpand the navigation pane to access your favorite modules quickly and easily. Whether you choose to expand it temporarily or pin it to be permanently expanded, you'll love how much more productive and efficient you can be with this new feature.
