Simple Contact

Modern email services automatically save contact details so you have easy access to previous and new individuals you want to communicate with. Chances are you want to save a list of contacts for different purposes, and there are various third-party applications like Simple Contact which might just come in handy.

On the one hand, you need to check whether or not your computer is fitted with .NET Framework, because it’s a mandatory requirement for functionality. On the other hand, Simple Contact doesn’t take you through a setup process, which means it can be used on the go, without affecting stability, because registry entries aren’t changed during runtime.

As far as the visual design is concerned, Simple Contact offers a clean interface, with a large section to edit and view contacts. An upper toolbar is used for management of files, and there’s also a search engine which makes it easy to identify lines of interest with minimum effort.

You’re free to import existing contacts either from clipboard or from a TXT file. Sadly, the application offers little support for other types of files, which has a considerable impact on flexibility. However, a list of contacts doesn’t necessarily need to be imported, and you can go ahead and create one on the spot to save.

There are no particular elements for the types of contacts in use, so you need to write down all details of interest the way you see fit. Using the search bar is done by simply writing what you know, with functions to have results shown as you type.

Taking everything into consideration, we can state that Simple Contact is a pretty straightforward contacts manager which doesn’t really offer much flexibility in terms of storage. Items are difficult to track on the long run, since contacts are basic text fields.
