A new version of the InLoox project management software, which supports Microsoft Outlook 2010, is now available. The producer, InLoox GmbH of Munich, is one of the first providers to release a free product update that works together with both 32- and 64-Bit versions of Microsoft Outlook.
Ribbon-user interface
Just like previous versions, InLoox 6.5 is seamlessly integrated into Outlook and supports Outlook 2010’s new menu ribbon. “We have designed the interface so that the user works only with those functions, which he actually needs”, explains the user interface specialist Martin Grünert. „It eliminates unnecessary clicks and we done a lot of tidying up.“ Customers, who are still using Outlook 2003 or 2007, will not be forced to adapt to something new – the familiar interface with toolbars and menus is still available.
New functions
The update includes a number of other useful improvements. The connection to Microsoft Exchange Server is a lot quicker, e.g. selecting project contacts from public address books or by assigning work packages in the project plan. The report designer has been extended with an improved PDF export, new barcode types as well as a user-friendly print control, which enables simultaneous output to different devices and formats.
Improved performance
The single-user InLoox personal edition is outfitted with a more powerful data base driver that speeds up the processing of large amounts of project data. The InLoox server versions are, now, easier to install, as the MySQL and Oracle data base installation has been improved.
The update is available free of charge to all customers. Anyone interested in testing the software can obtain a fully-functional 30-day trial version. Both the update and the trial versions can be found at www.inloox.com
