Sorry to post this here, but NetCentric forums don't allow pre-buyers access. I'm looking for feedback from folks that have implemented the new version outlook plugin.
I'm tempted to buy the Netcentric outlook plugin now, as the new version's project controls seem to be what I am missing in my current "custom" implementation of GTD in Outlook. I'm using a combination of lessons learned in the GTD Oulook implementation PDF and Linderberger's "Total Workday control using Outlook". How do I test the plugin, or demo it, without causing permanent changes to my existing Outlook settings and data files?
Specifically, 2 questions:
1. I have robust working files of tasks, email filing systems etc in place, that will undoubtedly be modified when I install then plugin. What happens to to all that "stuff".
2. Suppose I go for the demo or just buy it and decide I don't like it. Are all my current custom settings, mail handling rules etc gone forever when I install the plugin? Does anyone have any "uninstall" or "go-back" experience they wish to share?
sorry to seem skittish, but Outlook and the processes I've built around it and my custom settings are critical to my busy existance. I'm tempted to test an upgrade, but the risk that "permanent" or damaging changes that will require many hours of manual configuration to get me back to where I am now is a real deterrent.
Your experiences?
