StickyNote Review
Not bad, but costly.
|
You can buy it at RegNow for that price.
Very customizable, 3D style looks good, can add attachments, alarm and expiration. Notes can also be privated.
When in 3D mode cannot be resized, too expensive, take up too much desktop space
This program is very easy to use, and you don't have to spend a lot of time learning how to use it, you just jump right in.
The notes are very customizable, you can choose your own font, font size, font color and the background of the notes too. The 3D style notes look realistic, but some of the backgrounds doesn't look all that pleasing. but it isn't resizable, which can take up a lot of desktop space.
Also in the 3D mode, rolling up, rolling to the side, locking a note and setting alarm have to be done through more processes. You have to double click and change it through the properties panel. Where-as in normal mode you just have to click on the little symbol at the bottom left of the note.
The alarm feature is great, you can even set your own sounds. Printing and sending notes is quick and easy with a button at the bottom of the note. You can also set an expiration date for the note, and save time from looking through all your notes and deleting the outdated ones.
One drawback is that you can only send it to people who have the program. StickyNote could make it better if it allowed you to send notes as a JPG File or text file to someone who doesn't own the program. Also, the sending notes part take awhile to set up, you have to manually enter the recipent's name and email address, which is very time consuming. It also requires you to sign up with AwareNet.
One feature I particularly liked is rolling up the notes to the side of your desktop, it takes up only a tiny space around the right of your desktop, and you can click on it anytime to unroll the note. You can also click the minimize button first to make it into a bar, and then click the roll-up button, it creates a very small icon on the right side of your desktop.
You can attach related documents to notes, which is great for reminding you to add on or work on an existing document.
This is a great program, easy to use with many functions. But too expensive, recommended only for people who have the money.
