Above & Beyond 3.1 - The PIM for Success


A Microsoft Windows shareware application. (C) 1994 1Soft Corporation


Description
-----------

Above & Beyond is a powerful system for planning, managing, and tracking
one's active business and personal life.  Innovative dynamic schedules
manage workflow effectively.  All types of recurring activities need be
entered just once.  You can print schedules to take your plans wherever
you go.  Above & Beyond also includes a pop-up calendar, alarms, task
and event timers, week- and month-at-a glance, contact database, and
much more.
 
With Above & Beyond, you can plan time for everything you want to do! 
 
Above & Beyond is ideal for workgroups, too.  Where workstations are
connected via a LAN, managers can balance the work-load  of staff
members, assign new items, prioritize work, as well as check task
completion status without interrupting on-going work.  Above & Beyond
automates the process of arranging meetings for group members, posting
meeting notices to all attendee's schedules. Secretaries can post phone
messages for calls to be returned, and monitor multiple schedules to
know who is where when.
 
Above & Beyond streamlines work-flow and productivity soars!
