Product Description:

Stop Working 60 hours a Week
PowerCard uses an innovative and intuitive "task card" based interface where you create index cards that represent the tasks you need to accomplish and slide them around to organize them into priorities and milestones.

This sort of organizational methodology has been in use for years by Project Managers who carried index cards around in their pockets. But PowerCard is the first application for the Macintosh to bring the power of these index cards to software.

This method is commonly used in Extreme Programming, but can be used for any project.

Additionally, PowerCard is the first ever "Rendezvous Enabled" project management application. Allowing multiple users to edit the same project together simultaneously with no configuration.

Tasks can be viewed as index cards, in a list, or in a free form view.

Features Rendezvous support, AddressBook integration, plugin customization, gantt charts, pert charts, burndown charts, velocity calculation and much more.

There's a bug. Downloaded and launched and hit 'New' - nothing happens - no new project opens.

The index card basis and highly visual interface make it very easy to not only manage a project, but to organize it in a sensible fashion. The interface feels very bare-bones (not necessarily a bad thing) and is more or less intuitive. Bugs are numerous but none are fatal. The interface does, however, scale poorly, and needs some major clean up to avoid having it too cluttered. Reporting is utterly lackluster (as is the case with most shareware project software, it seems) which ought to be addressed.

Charting and scheduling is straightforward, but you cannot print any generated charts!?!

The price does seem high for what is pretty much beta-quality software without the polish of most higher grade shareware.

Still, to track smaller projects or to aid in work breakdowns, this seems like an excellent approach. Much more focused, interesting and versatile than xTime, PMX, or other competing shareware project managers.
