CONCLUSION

Working in a large corporation for a number of years I have used a number of different project management software tools ranging from a self-made tool in an Excel spreadsheet to high-end project management software. With a few minor exceptions Dextronet Smart Software's Swift To-Do List version 5.10 is as good as any tool I've ever used. Speaking strictly from a business frame of reference there a couple of features I would have liked to have seen as options would have been various graphical displays of the project elements with time frame bars showing the time necessary to complete each phase. I would have also like to have seen a place where man hours involved in each phase of the project could have been entered and a total shown, and as the project progressed and each element was completed this number would have decreased accordingly.

Speaking now from a home users point of view I see absolutely nothing that this product lacks, and for the $29.95 USD price it is more than worth the investment if you have home or home office projects that you would like to track using your computer. Personally speaking the days making a written list just don't cut it anymore! I need reminders of deadlines and project expectations that are coming due. The home user could implement this software for projects ranging from building a backyard patio to planning changes in your home budget process for the coming year. Doing so and having the reminder feature should assure that no important aspects are missed and the project completed successfully.

Can I recommend this software? You bet I can without and reservations or trepidations for anyone and any use from a simple home project to a complex business planing effort. Nice work Dextronet! Oh and for the record, I never read the first instruction on how to use this product! I did however browse Dextronet's on-line manual before writing this review.

Pros:

+  Very well engineered software
+  Excellent performance
+  Very cost effective
+  Feature laden for a such small footprint
+  Not a resource hog
+  Reminder feature
+  Many user definable options

Cons:

-  A few features missing for advanced business use


<Final Score: 8 out of 10 and the Bjorn3D Seal of Approval.
