This week we’re very excited to release the next major evolution of ClearContext. We’ve always been focused on helping people take control of their inbox with simple and powerful email management tools. With ClearContext v5.1, we’ve built on that to make it just as easy to stay on top of all your tasks and projects too.
What’s new in 5.1?
In ClearContext Pro v5.1, the ClearContext Dashboard window has been replaced with a sidebar inside the Outlook inbox that brings many task and project features to the forefront of the product. For more extensive task management, we’ve also added a powerful Task Organizer to review and edit tasks in bulk. Here’s a quick overview of the new Sidebar and Task Organizer functionality:
ClearContext Sidebar – Dashboard
- View the status of projects due now, active projects, or find any project
- Pin your most important projects for quick access to them
- Easily edit or create new tasks right in the sidebar
- View tasks filtered by date/category/priority/etc
ClearContext Sidebar – Project Tabs
- Jump to the associated email folder for any project
- Add free-form notes (for call logs, reminders, etc) to projects
- View and create/edit project tasks
- View associated files and contacts
- Easily move/rename projects
Task Organizer
- Launch from menu/toolbar or sidebar Manage Tasks buttons
- Change due dates on tasks in bulk
- Manage and view tasks by project, category, priority, etc
- Review completed or pending tasks
- When the ClearContext sidebar is closed, a Task Reminder window will pop up when you have several overdue tasks.
Here’s a clip of the new features in action:
We look forward to hearing your feedback on all of the new functionality so we can continue to make it even better for you!
Registered v5 customers can download v5.1 here.
New customers can purchase v5 here. Registered ClearContext Pro v4 users can purchase an upgrade to v5 here. Purchase now and you’ll also receive a free upgrade to our upcoming v5.2 release focused on comprehensive automated filing to process your newsletters, notifications, and other bulk email, plus even more task and project management features!
This is an awesome release . The dashboard right besides my emails is great . one suggestion :- please add search capability to the task list inside the dashboard. I sometimes have so many tasks that I have to scroll up and down looking for the right one visually. Search would be a nice add.
