SOKRATES® Communicator Personal Edition is your personal assistant. It runs on your personal workstation or notebook exclusively. You neither need a server nor Internet access: A powerful SQL database (Firebird) runs locally to support you at full speed.
You may appoint other users (e.g. your family members, your secretary etc.), but they have to log in on your computer to have access to SOKRATES Communicator Personal Edition.
After SOKRATES Communicator is installed it starts to register other programs you have installed and links all of them together:
-
Contact Management: This fully featured module offers functionality you would only expect from expensive high-end CRM packages. Import contacts from Microsoft® Outlook® or Skype® easily and quickly!
-
Project Management: Define the projects you are working on in a hierarchical tree and keep the overview. This in-built project management functionality is not intended to replace full-size project management solutions (which you could connect optionally), but to structure your work and to assign all types of project-oriented information: documents, emails, contacts, phone call protocols etc.
-
Emails: The option "Emails for Outlook®" offers a natural interface to Microsoft® Outlook®. With Communicator, you can write emails directly from a selected contact or project using an unlimited number of email templates you can create. Incoming emails are automatically assigned to contacts and projects. Answer or forward emails directly from Communicator, let attachments automatically be zipped and attached, create tasks for emails to be answered and much more... Currently, we support Microsoft® Outlook® , other email clients will follow.
-
Phone Calls: Register times and protocols of phone calls made and assign them to contacts and projects for future reference. The option "VoIP for Skype®" integrates Skype into the Communicator's user interface: Call a contact with one mouse-click only, get his record automatically opened when he calls you, schedule calls to do, keep an overview of missed phone calls, schedule emails, documents and other phone calls while having a call, transfer a call to another person (ideal for assistants...) and much more...
-
Documents: Opting also for the module "Documents & Applications" the system registers applications you use for your specific documents: Your text processing system, your spreadsheet, your favourite browser, your PDF-viewer etc. Create document templates for your applications and register them within Communicator. From now on, you can set up, open and retrieve documents of any type directly in the contacts or projects defined in Communicator: See all documents assigned to a project and/or contacts, get lists of contact/project-related documents, create lists of weblinks and store them in "knowledge base" projects, ... The Personal Edition only stores links to documents in the database, the documents remain on your harddisk or server. Other editions can store documents in their database for internet access.
If you want to control and administer your own contacts, projects, tasks, documents and communication, SOKRATES Communicator PERSONAL EDITION is the right package for you! Prices start at EURO 50.- including one year's update subscription.
If you like it and want to work in a team using Communicator or accessing your data from the internet, you can easily upgrade to the TEAM or even BUSINESS edition later.
System Requirements: Microsoft® Windows® Vista, XP or 2000, 100MB free disk space, screen resolution 1280x1024 recommended.
