agenda one or eXtreme agenda? - Motorola Q Forum

JAT · 12-07-2006, 11:47 AM

I've just downloaded the trial version of agenda one yesterday. From what I've seen, its a great program. I've seen many posts about eXtreme agenda... has anyone used both and have an opinion?

I looked at both - they seem very similar, but the kicker was getting CodeWallet 6 thrown in the deal. I think Agenda might have just a little slicker interface. Yeah, I know eXtreme has a 'wallet", but its not as powerful; but it does have a notepad. Either is a good choice IMOP.

Were you able to get BOTH Agenda One and CodeWallet in a package deal? From what I can tell they are two separate purchases totaling $55.

Yes, seemed like a curious reply to me as well.. If you look around you can get it bundled but even if you do catch that price, it is still like $15 more...and regular pricing its $30 more...

We hope you try both the trials and see which you prefer..

Thanks

I like Extreme Agenda. Although I didn't try the other one. Like the note and wallet being included so I went with it.. The Notes syncs to my mac with MissingSync as well.

I went with Agenda One. The interface seemed cleaner and more sophisticated than Extreme Agenda. While I did like the fact the EA was bundled with a wallet program, it still didn't seem as pleasant to use, IMHO.

I went with Agenda One mostly due to the ability send meeting requests to invitees. Both are good programs though.

If I may ask what makes it more "sophisticated"? So I can improve on our interface...

Oh, and we can send meeting invites as well in Extreme Agenda(as of Version 2.1).

Thanks for giving it a shot...

I like the Agenda One month view and the way you can get to all views without having to scroll through every other option.

I'll have to admit, I downloaded the trial version of Extreme Agenda before I really knew that I wanted a third party PIM and I only started really using it when I had just a few days left on the trial. I'm currently in the middle of the Agenda One trial (and Papyrus, which I've ruled out). I tried uninstalling Extreme Agenda and downloading a new trial so that I could do a side by side comparison with Agenda One but was denied, which I understand, lest you keep a perpetual trial version.

If there is a way to "extend" the trial of Extreme Agenda, I'd like to sample it for a few more days, but if not, I'm leaning toward Agenda One.

Yes - check right here in EverythingQ - $35.95 for both -

BTW - did not mean to phlame ExtremeAgenda - its also a very good program and to be honest was a toss-up, just personal preference on style.
