14 DAY TRIAL // Have you ever found yourself wondering what day it was and not have anyone to ask to set you straight? Well, if you have, then those days are over now because you can keep track of time and holydays by using a very simple and powerful application that will guarantee you never to forget any important event in our life.
For those of us who use the computer on a regular basis and the virtual environment has become their second home, a holyday calendar that can keep them up to date with the latest events is the perfect solution. You don't have so search online for important events when you can just check your calendar and prepare in advance for the occasion.
This simple application has a very useful startup wizard that allows you to customize your calendar by type, style, year and most importantly, by language. In other words, Simply Calenders lets you customize your holidays by choosing from over 40 different language packs that contain specific holidays for a certain country. Besides the ordinary holyday events, you can also choose your national events according to the country you live in. Religious events are also another important feature of a calendar and of course, this application provides you with holidays depending on your religion.
Using the Calendar Creation Wizard you can also set an image for every month of the year, thus creating your own personalized monthly calendar. In case you have some important events accruing throughout the year, you can simply choose the targeted day from the calendar and set up a customized label so that you will not forget what you have to do.
Considering you have completed the wizard and you have successfully configured the calendar, you will now be able to view it according to the customized preferences. You can easily change the displayed month by accessing the menu from the top of the screen, which also allows you to view detailed information about a certain month.
The File menu of Simply Calenders has a very important feature embedded into it and that is the ability to print out your calendar. This can be very useful in case you want to place it on your wall at work or at home. The Edit menu allows you to access the Preferences window of the application from where you can easily set your time zone and change the language interface of the application.
The app has many features that can come in handy when creating your own calendar but one stands out from the crowd and that is the ability to create html based calendars. This can be an important tool because if you can export a calendar to an html file format, then you can use the same calendar on your personal web page, thus you can check your calendar from wherever you are. This feature is great for those who have PDA or other portable devices compliant with the html technology because they can carry this calendar with them wherever they go.
With Simply Calenders, features such as moon phases and solstices and equinoxes can come in very handy for those who need to be kept up to date regarding such events. These features are something that you don't find in your everyday calendar and they represent a quality when it comes to choosing a complex and powerful calendar design and scheduling tool. Simply Calenders provides you with features that no other application in its class does, along with the fact that you can fully customize the way your calendar should look as well as trace important events from both your personal and social life.
The Good
You can use Simply Calenders to create your own personalized calendar, filled with the holydays that you want and customized messages for each day. This application is fully customizable when it comes to calendar creation and comes with two major advantages: the ability to print your calendar and export it into an html file format. Another good thing about this application is that it provides you with six other language interfaces besides English, so this can be considered a multilingual tool.
The Bad
There are some redundancies in feature placement along the menu bar. For instance, you can change the same options from both the Preferences window and from other menus. Another downside could be the user interface. The application can do so many things but the design is somewhat robust and simplistic. Some graphical enhancements would be much appreciated.
The Truth
Simply Calenders is a very useful tool when it comes to calendar creation and holiday scheduling. Considering that it has features that no other application from the same area has, Simply Calenders is worth every penny from its 24.95 dollar price.
