What is MyOffice?
MyOffice is a subscription based Internet-hosted 'online office' developed for people who are on the move or who work from different locations and want to share information with their colleagues.
It combines shared diaries / calendars, contacts, email, tasks and file store into
an integrated set of collaboration tools - all specifically designed for today's
SME businesses.
There are 3 versions of the software - a Windows Desktop version, a Web Browser
version and a Pocket PC PDA version.
MyOffice differs from normal web browser services in that, because its a Windows
application, it can be run in 'offline' mode. So when the internet goes down you
can carry on working without impacting your business.

Diaries and Calendars
The MyOffice Diary system allows you to share any number of diaries
with your colleagues, regardless of where they are in the world. You can overlay
multiple diaries in the same display, in daily, weekly, monthly or list views. Choose which of your users
have access to which diaries.
Diaries can be viewed across timezones, either in your PC's timezone, or in a timezone
of your chosing, allowing seamless global planning.
Add your own fields to
your appointments, to store the data that's specific to your business.

Contact Management (CRM)
MyOffice Contact Management keeps your contact data in central location enabling
you to share CRM data with your colleagues. Contacts can be organised into Contact Groups and you decide which users have access to which groups.
You can keep a history of your dealings with each contact, and also customise the
data fields, so you'll never find yourself unable to keep the information you want
on the customers you value.

Email Client
MyOffice includes a full featured POP3 Email client which, unlike normal desktop
email clients, allows you to access your sent and received emails from any internet-connected
PC. With your emails held centrally, you'll be able to work with all your emails
from home, at work, or wherever you want. No more worrying about whether that important
email you're looking for was sent from your laptop, your work desktop, or the
PC in the hotel lobby.
Email Folder Sharing allows you to share your emails with other users in your account,
so there's no need for endless forwarding and CC'ing just to allow your colleagues
to access important emails.

Task Planner
Whether you're after simple 'To Do' lists, or a more comprehensive Gantt chart,
the MyOffice
Tasks Planner allows you to not only plan your based business
activities, but to share those plans with other users.
With shared task lists, there's no need to email your plans around the office, or
pop them on the file server - they're available to the users in you account.
You can even set tasks to appear in other users' Today windows - so they'll see them as soon as they log on!

Reminders
Missing important engagements is never a good thing, but with MyOffice Reminders
you can give yourself, and others, an extra warning. You can send reminders either to users within
your MyOffice account, or to any recipient via email, and SMS mobile phone.
Also, because MyOffice allows you to view your data from any timezone, regardless
of what your PC's set to use, you can be sure reminders sent to colleagues overseas
will go off at the right time.
Reminders can be attached to appointments and tasks, or simply set up as stand-alone
entities ... so you have several ways in which you can use them.

File Store
Store and access your documents over the internet via MyOffice. Our permission-based
File Store allows you control over which members of your account can download or
alter documents stored in MyOffice.
The MyOffice file store is not dependant on additional components installed on your
PCs, and so requires zero configuration to get started, and because your data is
transported in the same, secure, way as the rest of your account's data, there's
no need for additional network configuration.

|
Today Window
The Today window enables you to see all the things you have to do today ... in one
window.
It lists diary appointments, tasks and contact 'activities' that are due today.
In terms of managing yourself and other people it's invaluable. You can see at a
glance what's happening today and if you scroll forward you'll see future days as
well.
