Menudex

Menudex is a handy and intuitive application designed to help you access your Outlook contacts, enabling you call, send them text messages or email them with just one click of a button.
The program has a more special installation method, meaning you will need to download both the DLL and the EXE files, in order for Menudex to install and function properly. These two items have to be saved to the same path.
Once installed, this piece of software runs minimized in the system tray, allowing you to access it whenever you need, but otherwise not interfering with your regular activities. It runs at Windows startup so you do not have to remember to launch it every time.
By clicking on its icon, you can view a list of all your Outlook contacts and call them using VOIP or Skype, send text messages or simply email them. You no longer have to look through your lists and discover which is the phone number or email address that you want, you can simply select the appropriate submenu and the 'SMS, 'Email' or 'Skype' option.
Note that in order to be able to send an SMS to a selected contact, you need to have a corresponding application installed on your system. The same goes for Skype and VOIP calls, so you should already have installed the required software, such as a softphone.
Moreover, Menudex allows you to load your regular email greeting when sending an Outlook email, as well as enabling you to choose the preferred sorting order, so your contacts can be displayed either by 'Firstname, Lastname' or the reverse.
In conclusion, Menudex is an interesting program that provides you with a useful set of functions, sparing you from having to search through your Outlook contacts list for every call or SMS you want to send, offering you all the information you need just a click away.
