I'll be honest with you guys. I hate MS Office and I use Premium 2003. The
only reason I use it is because Outlook integrates with word for inserting
addresses. The best word processor and suite I've ever used is Lotus Word
Pro and the whole Smart Suite. Everything you right click on, all formatting
for text, table, frames is right there at your finger tips. Check it out.
Lotus / IBM's Approach database is the best. For me at least it was easy to
learn. To me, MS Word is about is the least intuitive of any program I've
seen. For example, if you want to add rows to a column you can't just right
click and add 3 rows. You have to select three rows in order to put 3. How
stupid. And if you don't have 3 rows to select you just have to do it a few
times. Or your other choice it to go up to the menu bar and wade about three
layers deep to do this.

 

I could go on and on with things like this but I like to be able to share my
contact with all programs on my computer. Outlook integrates with all MS
apps and also many other programs. Also many add ins for outlook. My virus
program ViRobot integrates very nicely into Outlook.

 

Point being I wouldn't change to your product even for free if you couldn't
share the information  in Outlook across all your programs. And as far as I
know you don't even have a contact manager which is the first thing I would
have done.

 

Just my 2 cents.

Let me know what you think if you get a minute and try that Smartsuite 9.8
if you get a chance. You can order it for $12 off the internet. What a
bargain.
