STAFF SCHEDULING SOFTWARE
Active Desktop Calendar makes your desktop a useful tool to help you well manage your time. Easy to use, it comes with an intuitive and clean graphical user interface and which is downloadable free of charge.
KEY FEATURES
Calendar: as its name points it out, Active Desktop Calendar is made of a calendar fully supported and displayed on your desktop. With its attractive design, it decorates your computer screen and at the same time is really useful since it is a calendar. It can also be used as an agenda, you just have to click on a day, enter the event name, date and so forth and the program will notify you afterwards.
Outlook: apart from that, Active Desktop Calendar will display with the calendar information related to MS outlook. Indeed, the program includes a tool which directly loads contacts, tasks, appointment from the mailing program's database. Due to this feature, you can also directly connect to your contact via LAN in order to check their schedules.
Screen saver: Active Desktop Calendar comes with a screen saver option which offers you the choice to use this program as a part of desktop or the default screen saver or both. To activate this option, all you have to do is to edit basic settings such as timing and voila.
Google: one of most outstanding features of this program might be its ability to support Ical and Google calendar. This gives you the opportunity to get and to export files from and to iCal calendar as well as reading Google Calendar hour.
SUMMARY
Need to keep up to date? Try the unobtrusive but feature-rich Active Desktop Calendar. Launching at start-up, it displays an attractive three-month calendar view on, yes, your desktop. By double-clicking a day or the sidebar, you can quickly access tasks and see details of upcoming events. You also can display Outlook information and download and connect to other people's calendars via a LAN to see changes in their schedules. The program has a simple contact manager as well.
Considering all the cool stuff it does, Active Desktop Calendar doesn't consume much memory. We did notice a few shortcomings in this generally excellent program. For example, though the window for adding a new note contains a subject line and a body field, only the subject-line text appears on the calendar and in the sidebar. The monthly calendar view looks pretty clunky, too. On the bright side, you can switch among several desktop images and set the program as the default screensaver, which will display several world clocks.
Active Desktop Calendar also exports and imports iCal calendar files and can read your Google Calendar on the hour (though not, apparently, at specified intervals or on demand, which is a bit frustrating). Overall, this program's strong functionality and design make it a good choice for home and business users.
