Hi everyone,
May I ask for some help?
I am using Everdesk Optima, mainly because of Quickboard convenience. Although support from EverEz is responsive, Optima has many issues (lack of conversation view for mails) and suffers for the long time without updates.
I’ve been looking for an alternative, featuring something similar to Quickboard (I use it to manage small projects). No success at all.
Would you suggest me something?
Thank you and regards,
PS: Sorry for my English

The free Personal Project Planner software developed at the University of Washington’s Keeping Found Things Found project may do what you are looking for.
It uses a very simple outline with a built-in template which can be easily modified to bring everything under one roof, so to speak.
To not be put off by thinking it is simplistic in its approach, and do take time to look at supporting site documents, download the software, and peruse the manual.
Simple, free, and effective.

Hi, Daly
Thank you for your ultra-fast response
I’ve taken a look at TKFT site and download an app called Planz
It is not exactly what I’ve imagined (what I like in Quickboard is the flexibility to rearrange folders and files using drag and drop, which is very important to me because my projects change priority everytime. Using drag and drop, I can place them in appropriate areas, according to priority, in a fast and simple way)
But Planz concept seems to be very interesting, and I am going to give it a try.
Thank you again for your information

Jorge,
If I remember wel what the Quickboard does (I don’t use it myself), you might also want to try Tabbles http://www.tabbles.net/

Hi Alexander,
I’ve used and old version of Tabbles and was not impressed at that time. But the newest version seems to be much more interesting
I’m giving it a try
Thank you and regards,
