EssentialPIM Description

Boost up your work productivity with the cross-platform EssentialPIM which allows saving, managing and organizing your data under one roof. The data once entered is stored in a scalable database for being accessed easily as per requirement. EPIM can keep you safeguarded from the probability of manual errors and omissions by syncing your Tasks, Appointments, Passwords, Email Messages, Notes and Contacts with multiple cloud applications like Outlook.com, iCloud and Google. Once the cloud sync feature is turned on, users can access data even while being away from their desktop. 

The intuitive interface of EssentialPIM has a very easy learning curve which can be managed even by novice users. The interface is divided into multiple sub-sections and users can exercise further customization by dragging the borders and molding the look as per their preference. Users can even select amongst the light and dark themes as per their liking. 

EssentialPIM encrypts user data using the highly advanced AES (Rijndael) 256-bit key which can keep you worry-free even while storing sensitive information such as your bank account credentials. The advanced data protection features prevent unauthorized access by surveillance activities and other online security threats. A built-in password generator generates passwords as per the user’s requirement by using a combination of numbers, symbols, letters, special characters and punctuation marks. 

The best thing about EssentialPIM is that it can be used readily from your USB drive or similar portable devices. No trace of the data or settings remain on the host system. Extensive data import and export capabilities opens up greater possibilities in terms of supported data formats such as XML, TXT, EML, iCal, HTML, CSV, RTF and vCard. All the data stored in EssentialPIM can be printed using multiple layouts for grouping, limiting, adding and hiding the same.

EssentialPIM Pros and Cons

Pros

"good"

"Your data is safe. There is a neat Tag system for sorting data"

"It is all-encompassing for office and personal use. All the components work well together."

Cons

"not identified"

"The interface is retrograde. Even simple entries in Today or Appointments require multiple repetitive input and choices. If you don't jump through the hoops your input can disappear because it is for some unknown reason invisible. You want to get it back, you can, but it'll take you half an hour to figure out how..."

"EssentialPim has kept up with the ever-changing needs/wants of its users and the market."

Clunky, with a feel of the 1990's

Adopted since the demise of Ecc Pro, I am constantly amazed by its clunkiness and lack of real ergonomy, yet it constantly vaunts its supposed universality by self-published reviews. It is solid and your data is safe. But any attempt at customising it is not for the faint hearted or those short of time.

What features is EssentialPIM currently missing?

Basic word processing features are missing. It is not a real outliner. Graphics only work in Notes. No real customising of Appointments, Today screens.

What other products like EssentialPIM have you used or evaluated?

Ecco Pro, GrandView, Outlook, and a whole slew of others downloaded and tested.

How EssentialPIM is better/different from its competitors?

I wouldn't say better, but I would say it is reliable. Its word processing features are primitive as are its outlining features.

EssentialPim is a mature and reliable product.

I have been using EssentialPim for many years (Over18) and have watched it grow and mature with the times and adapted to community needs. Support has always been great. So they have been very reliable and stable software to use every day.

What do you like best about EssentialPIM?

The calendar and to-do lists are the most beneficial features for both my wife and myself.

What do you dislike about EssentialPIM?

I sometimes have trouble with the linking of my information between devices. I've never quite grasped how to isolate particular calendar events so that they DON'T sync with EPIM. I suspect that this is more of a "user-error" issue than a shortcoming of EPIM

A real PIM

Email, contacts, appointments, to-dos and notes under one roof is excellent. There are still limitations with two calendars that can be managed separately. But this should be fixed in V10.

A Swiss Army knife for life

EssentialPIM is probably the most essential program I use. It has my diary, contact details, notes, passwords, etc. And I really use only some of the features which are available. The ability to sync with my smart phone means that I always have an up-to-date copy when I'm away from my PC.

Very user friendly and great customer support

Very user friendly. Colorful customization especially in Calendar by theme and importance. Cheaper than the market leader software and much more intuitive. Great and fast customer support (absolutely the quickest I have ever experienced of any software I have ever bought). I bought the lifetime update which is well worth it.

Great all-in-one software application!

I have been using this for a number of years now. In fact, this year I purchased a lifetime subscription for EssentialPIM. The security features alone make it well worth the small amount that you need to purchase it. I also love the fact that it is continually updated.

It is a flexible system that's used daily for quick reference for needed information

As a Senior, I use this program many times during the day because it is easy to input information and just as easy to find it when it is needed. At my age the memory needs as much help as it can get and this program solves that problem by allowing an easy way to retrieve needed information.

Best PIM for my work

I can store all my working-information and can link easy together. E-Mals are also good to connect to contacts and dates, notes. Searching over all is nearly perfect. Syncronisation with mobile-phone and or tablet is possible without give my data out, but I can also use google, dropbox, . Missing: Connecting to MS-Word for adresses.
