Summary: Maximizer Link Ver. 5 (now Ver 6)
Review: Our 2 lawyer, 10 support staff office have been users of Maximizer Enterprise for about 3 years. We use PalmPilots (Vx and M505) to sync our data. We have been quite dissatisfied with the Maximizer Link Software.

1. You cannot sync your calendar or your To Do list without syncing your Address book. We have a large data base and unless you happen to sync the Address book entry for which you have a Task or a Calendar assignment, they will not show up on the Palm.

2. It is difficlut to change the list of Address book entries to by synced. On most of the machines in my office, trying to change the list will result in the program crashing. Multiactive does not have a fix for this. I had to keep trying machines until I found one that worked.

3. I cannot sync my m505 with Maxlink Ver 6 - the Palm times out part way through the sync every time. The work around that I have discovered is to then configure MaxLink to revert the data to the state at the last sync. I will then get the address book entries that I was originally trying to sync.

This software needs improvement!!!!!!!

Summary: no need to carry your laptop
Review: Wonderful program. Maximizer link 5 sets up very easily and offers a very detailed manual to assist in the event of any difficulties. The program works seamlessly with Maximizer 5. The only short coming is the manner in which palm handles notes and to do's. Any number of Maximizer notes and to do's can be attached directly to a contact, however Palms' address book only permits ONE note to be synchronized with a contact. Through the use of what maximizer calls "keys" you can link a to do or note to a contact and it seems to work quite well. It would be better if notes where linked to a contact by the Palm address book. Great program highly recommend it.
