Lware Homesec

I really needed a piece of software that let me keep track of people and companies I deal with. Homesec lets you store all sorts of data on companies and individuals and, if you want, link individuals to companies.

You can then record all events that happened - meetings, calls, emails, whatever. Then at any time you can get a list in date order of all your dealings with a contact or a company and select the event you want and then view the details or print it off.

There are a couple of neat features. You can link a contact to more than one organisation. This is really cool as I work with someone who I also see in the course of a hobby. I can include the same contact in both groups and they show up in the contact list for both groups. The second neat feature is that you can generate emails to all the members of a given contact group. If your email only supports say 20 addressees and you have a list longer than this, it will generate an extra mail for the remaining names.

Finally, we use the system at home where two of us have separate user accounts. We can make information public or private which is a nice feature.
