Description

BusyContacts is the contact manager the Mac has been missing. It replaces the built-in Contacts app with a faster, more flexible way to create, find and manage people, and it works with the accounts you already have: iCloud, Google, Microsoft 365, Exchange, Fastmail, Yahoo and any CardDAV server. Paired with BusyCal, it becomes a lightweight CRM that tracks who you met, what you sent them and what comes next. Free to try for 14 days. A subscription unlocks the full app, and one subscription covers your whole family through Family Sharing. ACTIVITY LIST • See a timeline of everything connected to a contact: emails sent and received in Apple Mail, meetings, tasks and events from BusyCal, and posts from LinkedIn, Bluesky, Mastodon, Instagram, GitHub, Reddit, YouTube and more • The BusyContacts Mail Assistant extension for Apple Mail captures the messages that matter and keeps them on your Mac TWO VIEWS, YOUR RULES • Card View: a clean single column with photos and a letter index for fast scrolling • List View: a table with over a hundred available columns, sorting on up to four levels, and up to ten custom fields as columns of their own • A customizable info panel with side-by-side or stacked layout, and hover actions to call, write or map a contact in one click TAGS, GROUPS AND SMART FILTERS • Give each contact as many tags as you like, then filter by tag from the sidebar with live counts and colors • Tags map to Groups in iCloud and Apple Contacts and to Categories in Exchange and Outlook, so they travel with your data • Smart Filters find contacts by any condition (a tag, a company, an upcoming birthday, a custom field value) and sit on the filter bar as one-click buttons EVERY ACCOUNT IN ONE PLACE • iCloud, Google, Microsoft 365 / Office 365, Outlook.com, Exchange, Fastmail, Yahoo, Fruux, Contactzilla and CardDAV, with push sync where the server supports it • Because BusyContacts syncs through your accounts, Apple Contacts and your iPhone stay in step automatically LINK AND MERGE • Cards for the same person across accounts are linked automatically and can be shown as one combined card • Link, unlink, merge, or merge and link cards yourself to clean up duplicates; edit a combined card once and every linked card updates BUSYCAL INTEGRATION • Link contacts to events, meetings, tasks and journal entries, or drag a contact onto the calendar to schedule a meeting • Birthday and anniversary calendars in BusyCal, and an Upcoming group in BusyContacts for the next two weeks of dates SHARE ADDRESS BOOKS • Share with other BusyContacts users, read-only or read-write, through Microsoft 365, Exchange, Fruux, Kerio, Zimbra and CardDAV servers that support sharing, or peer to peer over your local network CAPTURE AND OUTPUT • Business card reader: drop in a photo of a card or an email signature and BusyContacts reads it into a new contact, entirely on your Mac • Quick Entry: type a name, number, email and company on one line and BusyContacts sorts out the fields • Create a QR code for any contact, or import one by dropping a QR image on the Dock icon • Print envelopes and mailing labels for Avery, DYMO and custom sizes • Export as vCard or CSV, with automatic backups and one-click restore AND MORE • Unlimited fields per type, custom labels, and custom field types including numbers and money you can sort and filter • Local time, pinned contacts, private notes that never leave your Mac, related names, attachments and a Me card • Call from your Mac through your iPhone or Skype, keyboard shortcuts for everything, a busycontacts:// URL scheme, and ready-made Alfred and LaunchBar workflows Made by the team behind BusyCal.

Logiciel idéal pour gérer ses contacts de façon professionnelle !

souslaville · 11 years ago · v1.0.3

Application un peu trop chère, mais très efficace. On se demande comment Apple na fait pas la même chose avec une version plus sophitiquée de son logiciel Contacts... En tout cas, face au fiasco de Bento et en l’absence de pont avec File Maker Pro (filiale de Apple...) concernant la gestion des contacts internes au Mac, avec BusyContacts, on a une vraie solution professionnelle. Les trouvailles : - La possibilité de mettre des tags (multiples) sur chaque contact. - Chaque tag devient un groupe dans le logiciel Contacts de Apple - La possibilité de modifier des infos directement en mode liste. - La gestion des couleurs ! - La gestion de plusieurs carnets d’adresses - La mémorisation de filtres Le vrai outil que l’on attendait sur Mac et je n’ai pas d’actions dans la compagnie qui développe ce logiciel. A ma connaissance, aucun concurrent… Bravo !

Simple and efficient

DANOYACHTS · 11 years ago · v1.0.5

If you want to enhance standard Contact app from mac, this is great product. I particulary appreciate the automatic integration with emails. From this application you have a global view on contacts with your own fields, you have the list of what you did and all associated email. I bought also Busycal that integrate good with it. I did not like the « todo » that goes to Busycal and would have preferred an integration with just a list.

Très gros défaut qui n’est pas indiqué

hushpuppy56 · 10 years ago · v1.0.8

Cette version sur l’Apple Store n’est pas la dernière et n’est PAS compatible avec MacOS Yosemite ni El Capitan. Excellent produit mais n’achetez pas ici. Faites le chez le développeur et signalez-lui cette omission sur l’Apple Store.

Großartig!

BerndieBroter · 11 years ago · v1.0.1

Endlich eine Kontaktverwaltung, die den Namen verdient. Setzt auf der Apple-Kontakte-App auf, das heißt, genau so gut ins System integriert. Und gleichzeitig eine solche umfassende Verbesserung in jeder Beziehung. Sein Geld absolut wert, auch wenn man BusyCal nicht einsetzt. Allerdings zusammen mit BusyCal einfach unschlagbar! Unbedingte Kaufempfehlung.

Die beste Kontakte App für den MAC

monster_tool · 11 years ago · v1.0.1

Die hauseigene Kontakte App hat mir von Anfang an nicht gefallen, einfach zu wenig Möglichkeiten. Habe deswegen andere getestet, z.b. Cobook. Hat mich aber nicht vom Hocker gehauen. Vor einiger Zeit habe ich dann als Testuser bei Busy Contacts mitgemacht. Die Fehler die in den 30 Tagen Testphase auftraten wurden bis zum Start alle ausgemerzt. Was kann Busy Contacts denn so?. Also die App gleicht sich mit Apples Kontaktverwaltung ab und erweitert die angezeigten Personen Informationen um zusätzliche Inhalte wie die von Google, Facebook, Twitter und LinkedIn. Ferner hat Busy Contacts eine Schlagwort Verwaltung an Board und super intelligente Filter. Die bieten CRM-Funktionen wie Terminvereinbarungen, Erinnerungen sowie Besprechungsnotizen die in der Vergangenheit waren. Wenn man will, connected sich Busy Contacts mit Apples iCloud, CardDAV und Exchange. Busy Contacts kann viel mehr Daten als normale Sync-Dienste verwalten. Natürlich sind 40 Euro für eine die App eine Menge Geld, aber sie ist jeden Cent wert. Vor allem die Spezial-Funktionen wie Tags und Labels für Kontakte, verschiedene Ansichtsmodi, Filter us.w. (Und es besteht noch die Möglichkeit der Integration der Kalender App BusyCal). Fazit: Es gibt momentan keine bessere App.

Kontakte-App, die macht was sie soll

Pjotr88 · 11 years ago · v1.0.2

Funktionsreicher als das mitgelieferte Programm. Schön ist die Verknüpfung mit Mails eines Kontakts. Die Verknüpfung zu gemeinsamen Ereignissen ist nur möglich, wenn man auch BusyCal nutzt. Nennt die Adressbuchgruppen „Tags“ und funktioniert an dieser Stelle fehlerfrei. Schön auch das Zusammenführen verschiedener Bestände (Firmenserver, Facebook, iCloud).

Hervorragend

romanjakob · 11 years ago · v1.0.3

Was ich mir noch wünschen würde, statt der Koppelung mit BusyCal die Verbindung zum normalen Kalender. Sonst super App.
