Product Description:

BdContacts is a powerful Menu Bar Contacts application that takes up very little room on your menu bar and gives you instant access to all your Address Book contacts along with extending the information stored with a contact like unlimited Notes, ToDo's, Alarms, Emails, Documents and Photos without having five applications eating up your dock space or menu bar.

BdContacts allows you to store and organize information with your Address Book contacts in ways never possible before, you can associate information with a contact and then compare selections of contacts to see a union of common information, like a combined ToDo list for several clients, or documents or Photos.

BdContacts allows you to link any number of documents, photos or emails to a contact simply by dragging the information to the contact. You can then add additional notes on the reference and either view a quick look view of the information or open the original.

BdContacts supports iCal type Alarms both stand alone and attracted to ToDo items the alarms are separate of iCal. The alarms look and feel just like iCal alarms but can relay more information and handle multiple alarm events.

BdContacts use the shelf concept to allow you to store groups of contacts or any other information you need to reference quickly, simply drag any item or group of items to the shelf and then click on the shelf item to be taken right back to the view and then have the records selected. This makes working with several clients a snap as you can be only one mouse click away from the information you need.

BdContacts is built using 100% Cocoa and Objective-C, BdContacts leverages the built-in power of Mac OS X10.5 (Leopard) to give you access to the latest technologies available from OS X, like Core Data SQL storage and uses the new Image Browser, HUD (Head up display) and quick look to provide information in a truly visual manner.

Great product and customer service. I love how streamlined it is yet integrates all the features that I was looking for. Alan Cook worked with me to enable the Smart Groups from Address Book in BdContacts. This product is very good and they listen to and value user feedback! I highly recommend it and it's counterpart BdCalendar!!

BdContacts ReviewLook No Further. Great App - Version: 1.06, 3/17/2008 01:08PM PST

For a long time I was searching for a contact management app that suited all my needs. All the hours I spend with searching, installing, evaluating and de-installing. They were all to basic or to expensive. Sure, there are also some Open Source CRM-apps, but they are to hard to understand and to heavy duty for my needs. But now I found what I was looking for! This developer had us in mind! This app offers me basically all the functionality I need. It has a well thought and an easy to understand usability and is fun to work with. Especially I appreciate the Video Help. It’s a great walk-through.

This program is useful, intuitive and inexpensive. It integrates well with Apple Address Book. It allows attachments of notes, todo's, alarms, emails, documents and photos. It mostly operates with drag and drop. One important feature for me was being able to attach emails to contacts. The program has an icon which sits in the menu bar at the top of the screen - click to open, click again to close.
I have never seen a more responsive developer. Emails are answered within hours - sometimes minutes.
Give it a free try and see for yourself.
