I Was Skeptical at First, But . . .
First, I have to admit that I used the Trial version of this program for a full 30 days before I was forced to purchase it. I was very skeptical at first since it functions very much like Apple Contacts. Like you, I could not figure out why I should pay $50.00 for a program that does what Contacts does for free. The fact is that it does something that I haven’t seen any other program do as well. It keeps tract of all communication between you and each of your contacts and it does it automatically. For example, the minute you install the program, it instantly finds every email communication you’ve had with this contact and stores it in the contact’s record. It does the same for Text messages, appointments and To Do’s. If you need to keep track of you activity with each contact, this is an indispensable tool.
In addition, rather than being limited to just a few categories that you can assign your contacts to, BusyContacts uses tags. That means you can categorize your contacts in an unlimited number of different ways.
It is also very intuitive in the way it links various contacts together. For example, when you start typing the name of a related contact, it searches your database for the associated person while you’re typing. So, after only a few strokes, you can just press enter to link the two contacts.
I really think that the program is over priced. However, I got so used to the ease of use and the functionality that I just could not go back to using Contacts. This program is well designed and easy to use. If you try it for 30 days, you will want to keep it.
