Another customer story from the customer service inbox:

I have now been using eProductivity for almost 2.5 years and since I discovered the product accidentally, it has really changed my life. Not a day goes by that I do not use eProductivity in my daily work, it has now become completely integrated in the way I work. I usually receive between 200 and 300 emails a day and it was an impossible task keeping up with follow up, actions, projects. I had not found any products, let alone Lotus Notes products that helped productivity and trust me, I have tied dozens of tools and products all claiming to improve productivity.

The ease of use and integrated nature of eProductivity really saves hours a day in being able to easily link emails to projects and assign actions in context. The views make it very simple to then track all outstanding tasks in the context of the work and who I need to follow up with. I am also delighted with the support I get from the support team. On the occasions I have needed help, I have had great response. I would say this is such an undiscovered , wonderful product and with out doubt, saves me hours of wasted time that I otherwise would spend delving into folders, searching for emails and trying to figure across a dozen tools how to track and manage. All this happens simply with one product!! This really makes up for so many deficiencies that simple mail products like Lotus Notes or Outlook have. Well done team, I look forward to the continued development of the product.

How to migrate from eProductivity Standalone to eProductivity Integrated Edition Another customer story from the customer service inbox:

Working with eProductivity for me has increased the right  focus, handling and overview ojepüf my tasks and projects tremendously! A big advantage of the full integration with Lotus Notes is that I work within one platform and I don't need to go outside of my email system to process my to do's. I just love that! I'm using eProductivity now 2 years and it's integrated into my daily life. It's a must for me to have, to keep on top of all those things I have to do business wise but also privately.

Having such overview and knowing you have all of your work in a trusted system creates peace of mind.  It personally helped me to show more responsibility and accountability. If it was for me everybody and every company should use eProductivity as it really shifts your mind set and can change company culture in a positive way.

On top of this all the eProductivity team does a fantastic job in supporting me. If I have a question or a more difficult query, they always respond within a day and their response is always helpful. I work in a Customer Care environment myself, so I know how important it is to support the customer along the way, so I appreciate their approach a lot!

Dear eProductivity team, dear Eric,

I would like to thank you for the work you are investing on eProductivity. It really helped to organize my life and work.  I would like to share my experiences. As I am not a native english speaker, please forgive some mistakes in the text ;-))

The reason I started looking for a solution like eProductivity is the desire to be better organized. I am an outside sales engineer, serving a big territory and taking care of a good amount of bigger and smaller projects. I also have a good number of customers which all have their own individual needs. And I am travelling a lot. In addition to my job, I am a husband and will be a father very soon. I am also a friend to my buddies etc. As you see, I am in different roles, but all are blurring into one another.

Discovering David Allen's GTD, I was in need to find my tool to integrate his way of getting things done into my life. The most advanced solution I could find is eProductivity. Your software helped me to keep the overview over my job life and my private one without having to choose different solutions. It really improved my way of living. I hardly missed deadlines anymore, became more organized in projects and a more reliable person in all my different roles. This was recognized by my wife, friends and business partners.

I could go on writing an essay about me and your software. Instead, I would just like to recommend to try eProductivity if he/she is already using Lotus Notes. It will have a huge, positive impact without adding more efforts to your everyday life.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best Regards

I've been using eProductivity for about 2 1/2 years now. My boss turned me on to GTD a couple of years before that, and I have tried over those years to implement GTD in various ways. The best way I have found that works for me is eProductivity. It integrates into my Lotus Notes client where I get all my work done. As emails and requests for service come in, I can quickly decide if I want to do it, delegated it, or defer it. Anything coming into the inbox can be quickly dragged into a next action (which can be then easily linked into a project), filed into a folder for reference, or forwarded to a responsible party for follow-up. After sending the email, there's an option to automatically create a "waiting for" action so someone ELSE doesn't drop the ball and come back to haunt me. I seldom leave the office with anything else but an empty inbox anymore and it's a very freeing feeling!

One of my favorite features of eProductivity is the Weekly Review Coach. It enables me to efficiently flow through all the different stages of the weekly review to- prompting and enabling me at each step to clear my head and get all my ideas and nagging concerns into my trusted system.

eProductivity has helped me tremendously in my personal life, my business, my education, and in my ministry. So many of us wear so many hats nowadays, and it's hard to keep all of the balls we're juggling up in the air. eProductivity is my GTD trusted system that allows me to have a relaxed disposition and be focused where I am when I'm there, knowing I have everything I need to do in there and not in my head. Thanks, eProductivity!

• Upgrade instructions for existing eProductivity Stand-alone users
• Do you have the latest version of eProductivity?

A year ago, we added a "check for updates" feature to eProductivity so that you will be informed as new updates become available. eProductivity will periodically check for updates (you may disable this in the preferences settings) and notify you when an update is available.

You can also check for updates manually at any time. Just click on the action bar and select . The dialog will show you the version of eProductivity that you are using and the latest version available for download.

If the dialog shows that an update is available, click the button to go to a webpage with more information.

Note: If the check for updates option does not appear on the eProductivity menu, they you are probably using a really old version of eProductivity. If so, go to the download page to get the latest version.
