Ajour

Your daily schedule is surely quite full, and it’s always a good idea to have an organized structure of all upcoming activities. What’s more, there are various applications which can make this process a whole lot easier, especially if your tasks involve using a computer. In this regard, Ajour wants to offer the means to keep a diary, to-do list, and appointments calendar.

Set up your own interface style

The setup process doesn’t keep you busy for a long while, also letting you start the program once the installer closes. A classic window shows up on launch, and it might take a little while before you figure out how functions are put to good use. On the bright side of things, you’re free to change the background and font colors used in the operation.
You get to use several tools to manage your time, such as a diary and organizer, periodic events, as well as a to-do list of tasks. Unfortunately, these aren’t really tied together, with no common resource to be linked. This means that each organizer needs to be individually handled.

Add tasks, diary entries, and more

Tabs help easily access all management options. The diary tab provides a decent space to fill up with text, while a calendar makes it possible to navigate through dates. All info is saved in real-time, and you can also add diary entries in days to come. It’s possible to insert links to be opened in your default web browser.
Moreover, the periodic events table makes it possible to add events, but you don’t get notified, even though there are fields for months and days. It would have been useful to see options to set up at least audio alerts. As far as notes go, there’s a rather limited number of slots to work with. All areas benefit from a search field for quick identification of items of interest.

In conclusion

Taking everything into consideration, we can state that Ajour comes with good intentions, but isn’t really developed in the type of method to make workflow easy. Although you can handle multiple types of tasks, you somewhat feel limited by the number of functions and slots you get to work with.
