hi,

the attachment contains the answers to the question

"What is the main problem in InfoLog?"


robert


ps: if anybody wants these comments in a more convenient format i can send him/her an excel-file.

ÿþ(infolog) when making someone 
responsible for a task, that person 
doesn\'t get an email as notification

some undocumented features and usefull 
tutorial, how to use it in different 
businesses in good way

i miss a history search

don't know

No option to purge completed items, 
preferences too complex, filters to 
complex

new tasks get wrong status 

Not able to print a list of day call or 
list of To do list for the day, etc...

Japanese translation

no email logging yet, does not send 
email notifications

many infos on the mask select mask - 
too many inputs without logical checks

info about task delegation via mail

I do not have problems with this 
application!

same as Calendar

No easy association with projects

None that I know of so far

advanced search features

the searchs, needs tags in order to 
simplify the searchs

Archived tasks done

Don't know much about it

Still Testing it to 'see' how to use it

Not possible to change the alarm inline 
(when you receive the notification you 
cannot reschedule it for 5 minutes 
later with a simple click, you have to 
re enter the task and program another 
alarm)

absent details control. i wish infolog 
have a view details mode

incoherent mix of features

Performance

summary views of the different types of 
entries are too messy, limited to 
certain functions, integration into 
other applications is sometimes bumpy

mail notifications

It is hard to manage with many things 
in the InfoLog. It would be nice to 
have better layout or customized 
grouping of items

Maybe I'm wrong, but this application 
is not very useful. Maybe you should 
rethink the purpose of this app and 
turn it into a true Todo app. The 
display could also be a bit clearer. 
Giving a priority and allowing metadata 
would be great!

infol log uinformation appears on teh 
calender on day later

"should be more ""human friendly"", 
interface is not ""ergonomic"""

Too much information, cannot overlayed 
in calendar

outlook integration

hierarchy of tasks is rather vague

Task completion levels should be more 
fine-grained

User Rights: When delegating a task to 
somebody, who usually is not allowed to 
see my task, he won't see this one 
eather

I want to create more than note, call 
and todo

really difficult to have a synthetic 
view, link with project is not clear 
(time accounting)

you have to edit infolog to view 
inside, cannot simply view it

task arnt displayed in calender without 
special handling

No alarms possible!

No e-mail to users

Can't divide tasks according to 
important/urgent parameters, doesn't 
have a grouped view for categorised 
tasks

interface. bad use of bold, and 
unnessesary muli lines.

needs more flexible sorting

user interface, no custom predefined 
filters possible

managing the status

haven't found one until yet

UI

It is a crap 

sometimes the overview get lost

no problem

not linked with email, have not due 
time, It could be a tts too

GUI, printouts

too many clicks to enter/manage data

Non intuitive name

no problem

not using infolog

"Need for ""add only"" acl. Assignet 
people could add comments, but couldn't 
touch old ones. Also, keeping 
information about the time of change of 
text (similar to TTS) should come 
handy."

less web 2.0 technology

Unnessesary complicated

The same of calendar adn addressbook, 
there isn't a possibility to print a 
planner or a summary

few glitches

time spent doesn't create a timesheet 
automatically

integration with other modules, 
internal congruency, navigation

Transparency of predefined 
infoLog-Types lakes of clearness: what 
means what?

can't connect with emails

Litte bit confusing

sorting in infolog list

Ergonomie. Too cluttered

Need better sorting of 
notes/tasks/phone

The workflow is very difficult

There is no automatic refresh function 
nor print function

description column too narrow

No connection to DMS

no real problem

Reminders/alarms

too much info in the screen

administration no documentation

task review

i wish there was a faster posibility to 
make a new tasks (because of this I 
sometimes don't use infolog (time!) and 
forget tasks)

Some synchronization problems (syncml)

Does not work across all relevant 
modules

Not easy to understand how it works

Need an item showing just the deadline

"imposible to synchronise categories 
and task contact; I is most important 
to our organisation. We tryed egwosynch 
and funambol, even kde synch, but none 
of programs worked"

Didn't used enough yet

It's not possible to put a link between 
an infoload and a file present in 
Filemanager

haven't link to e-mail

its not very intuitiv to use, the 
layout is somehow strange

"In Tab ""Description"" -> ""Contact"" 
misses a link to Addressbook"

The difficulty to match with projects, 
it's difficult to understand the 
difference between both

sync ...

none?

too confusing for the users 

too complex

the integration with timesheet, can't 
figure out how to use it correctly

Don't use it actually

I'd like t oinclude spreadsheet type 
data structures in the infolog

none found

Very cumbersomely to overview.

sometimes is difficult to understand 
why i some tasks und some not (the 
settings are correct). the 
filter-funcionality looks very heavy - 
i would prefer filter sililiar filters 
likein vtiger which i really love

Crashes

Need a possibiliti to create an infolog 
for an other user and don't keep a 
contact with this infolog, and 
possibility to delegate to many people

no problem

usability

The list of items doesn't indicate the 
category (like the way Calendar colors 
items).

"It does not have a ""Priority"" Field 
(and sort), so I don't see my important 
infologs when they go in the second 
page!"

Integration with other apps is not 
always intuitive

better (smaller) list display of tasks 
- be able to display only task with due 
dates

very confusing layout / maybe better 
grouping is required

Hmmm I think that if perfected ... for 
some less computer friendly people .. 
we could reduce some of the redundcies 
in the searcg options eg . own 
responsible ... responsible ... what is 
upcomming????? never use it.

Some how improving on the 
SUB-structure? Not sure what to suggest 
here but I just real it could be 
stream-lined better.

Not very clearly arranged

none found yet

Also sync problems(Sunbird problems 
mostly i think)

same like the addressbook 
(rightmanagement to assigned users)

Linking email messages, printer 
printout options

Doesn't send a email to delegated 
people after creation, update. There is 
no history of the communication. 

Better filtering by project / 
subproject would be nice.

Sorting and filtering.

dates in infolog and projectmanager are 
different

strange behavior when used within 
Project Manager

I cannot format text in notes.

i miss a mass manipulation function 
mostly (suggest checkboxes at all tasks 
to make mass manipulations possible)

Woud like to be able to attach 
documents to log entries

Not able to set default start tabs 
depending on category, means extra 
steps for users

slow when there are many records

It's link to project manager is a 
little clunky.

You can not filter by person who is 
part of your InfoLog group as of 
version 1.0. Don't know about version 
1.2

Task cannot be repeated - emails do not 
appears with infologs - unable to link 
with a file within the file manager...

Again, I mainly sync with pda. I rarely 
use Tasks so I don't remember if they 
work. Notes do not, would be nice, but 
not too important for now.

No URI-Reference instead of file 
upload. File attachments do not work 
with MySQL (Win2k).

e-mail can't be an infolog element

Interface and workstyle is hard to 
follow, also can't easily link to Palm 
device without the need for 3rd party 
client.

One should be able to automatically 
create calendar entries when 
establishing tasks, with no need to 
reference existing calendar entries. 

header of entry should be the category 
(we use categories for our projects). 
date display in list view is confusing.

speed

Archive

No email alert.

missing a printer-friendly view (to 
take it in team meetings)

Confusion

find the rigth Entry, syncml

tasks and notes are too similar, they 
need to be more distinct. A note should 
look like a note i.e a desktop note app 
like knotes

Wrong association with agenda

SQL ERROR all time

Working ok for me!

It's name doesn't reflect the 'todo' 
aspect of it's function.

Very nice job : excellent

synchronization

I would like to see tasks directly in 
the calender

hmmmm... nothing special...

After two hours of tinkering with , 
don't have a clue of the right way to 
use it...

connection between infoLog and projekt 
and company

The presentation of information is not 
very clear and it need a workflow 
management for the different types of 
events.

Zu viele Funktionen auf einmal

complicated filters

It takes very much time to handle tasks 
properly and in detail.

Custom Fields are not displayed in 
Opera 8.5 and 9.x

No serious problems.  But wish 
categories from Calendar carried over 
to InfoLog

confusing application - the is no exact 
scenario where I could find the need 
for InfoLog

No option for reminders (e-mail or in 
Calendar)

No relation to Knowledgebase

Categories should be different files 
for Infolog, Contacts, Articles of 
KnowledgeBase,...

Multiple select to change 
status/category not available,no option 
to archive (and keep) done items while 
removing the items from the displayed 
list of active items

I just had a brief view on it - it 
seems to bee complex to coordinating 
task to different members

Automating things such as linking etc. 
Integration with ProjectManager is 
excellent but the way the information 
is presented in the PM is not.

It doesn't allow to repeate tasks 
(recursive)

Miss moving items in the tree as 
subitem, quick edit (ajax) the elements 
inplace.

Task management is a little confusing

have used it very little

Types more flexible, not only 3 hard 
types

lazy users 

What I have seen of it I like. Need the 
manual

printing

i miss important features and don`t 
like this application

I started using this app only recently

it s not intuitive

SyncML for notes w/o subject doesn't 
work (?). Integration into calendar is 
not sufficient.

None so far

Dificult to use, probably for there is 
not a user manual

display is not oriented to the things i 
need to see

i would like to have more connections 
with mail

A bit confusing when I use with Project 
Manager and Tasks (not clear which one 
is the sub-task). There's more than 3 
task-type

Layout can be a bit confusing

To displace one experience from one day 
to the next.

To get a understanding what it does and 
how it relates to other applications.

I've made many attempts, just has never 
caught on with me (or other users)

bad visualisation

none that i know of

emails sent to a contact doesn't appear 
in infolog

"Often you get ""erledigt = finished"" 
state when you make a new entry"

needs better handling of subtasks

no drag'n'drop

there is no different view of main- and 
subtask

poor documentation

Cant set default filter specialy for 
each category.

none?

Cannot install on Windows using MSSQL 
or MySQL.

sorry - i forgot my problem because i 
didn't use it anymore

major integration with groups.

to mcuh options on tabs at todo form

needs an html editor that won't piss 
off firefox

Doesn't sync well using syncml

Need an easy to get to search-function

Have not begun to use it, but I will.  
Need more help.  I do use it for 
ToDo's.

needs better symbols and clearer view
