Outlook sharing calendar

[jw]

Hi,
I am new to this group and have not seen a similar post in the earlier
posts, so I thought I would put out my question and see if anyone can
help.

I am part of a small company where 8-10 of us use outlook. We would
like to set up a couple of shared calendars (ie: field calendar,
conference room, vacation...) where each of us can see them and
add/edit etc. We would also like to share contacts, if possible.
Ideally, we would like to see each others schedules, although at this
time it is not a priority.

Since money is an issue, exchange server is not an option.

I have seen a few third party software, mostly listed on the webpage
http://www.slipstick.com/, although most of it is ads.

Has anyone had any experience or would recommend the product Public
Sharefolder by SDMD
(http://www.publicshareware.com/public-share-outlook-description.html).
Apparently, this product was previously known as Public OutlLook.

Or, is there another option that would better meet our needs at this
time.

I appreciate any assistance and thank-you in advance.

Sincerely,
James

I was wondering how the program MAPILab Groupware Server
(http://www.mapilab.com/groupware/server/?slpk) by Mapi Lab would
comare to the Public Sharefolder program by SDMD. It seems slightly
more expensive, but which one is functionally better?

thanks again for any assistance.

Hi James,

Sharefolder by SDMD

Of course I could recommend it but this wouldn´t be fair.

A test of this 3rd party tool is on this ZDNet UK Editors Choice site:
http://reviews.zdnet.co.uk/software/internet/0,39024160,10004529,00.htm

On the Microsoft Office Marketplace site is a list of rated third-party
messaging
tools:

I would test the solutions and would ask for a test license.

Oliver,

I know that this is probably not the forum, but your reply e-mail
(e-mail address removed) or '.com' was not working. I have also sent roughly
6-8 e-mails to your company requesting specific pricing, an extended trial
license (beyond 4 hours) as the website describes with no response.

I can be reached at the e-mail listed in my profile.

thanks
