[comp.sys.mac] Multi-user reminder calendar

minkus@lesath.usc.edu (Bob Minkus) (02/16/90)

	Does anyone know of a reminder program, like Remember?, that can
	be used by multiple users?  I need a program that several people
	can use for scheduling meetings, appointments, etc.  I thought
	about using Remember? in a public folder, but I'm not sure that
	would work.  Any suggestions?

							Thanks,

							  Bob

SmartAlarms exists in a multiuser version. Available from ComputerWare
(and presumably from other mail order companies) for a price of $149.

The single user version is very convenient to use.

There are two that I know of: Multi-User Appointment Diary, which, used with
the associated product Smart Alarms, can make a nice Diary/Reminder
combination.  The publisher is JAM Software (415) 663-1041.  There is
another one published by Layered (617) 242-7700 which I think is called
Front Desk Multiuser.

If anyone knows of any others, I would also like to hear about it or them.

Well, simpler, more limited, and possibly cheaper, is my own Cal shareware,
which lets multiple people share a calendar over a net, but for the moment, 
requries that the Calendar files reside on a disk that has shared access (such 
as TOPS or AppleShare give you.)
