When you need to have effective communication and records of it with coworkers and/or clients. Calendar function sends a notification 15 minutes prior [to] an appointment or event and at the specific time of the appointment. Is not as well suited on calendar as it is not [very] intuitive.

Entering billing time is a breeze. It is also easy to keep up with all billing through the Time Manager screen in conjunction with Fee Entry. It works great as a calendar, with the ability to designate entries as tasks, events and other topics. The calendar program synchs with Outlook, no need to enter deadlines in two separate programs. It is a breeze to run conflict checks and the Smart Timers Management option is very user friendly.
