SE-BirthdaysCalendar

SE-BirthdaysCalendar is an intuitive application designed to manage a list with birth dates to help you better keep track of special events shared with friends and family.
It comprises a standard set of features like tags and reminders, which should be easy enough to figure out by anyone.

Quick setup and simplistic UI

Installing the app takes little time and effort. As far as the interface is concerned, SE-BirthdaysCalendar adopts a minimalistic approach. A regular window can be populated with new contacts by filling out names, birth dates, tags and comments.

Define tags to rapidly find a contact

Just as it sounds like, tags can be later used to rapidly identify people by category such as friends, relatives and co-workers. These examples are actually filters predefined by the app, but custom ones can be assigned as well.
The main frame shows all these details, along with the remaining days until the special events. Evidently, SE-BirthdaysCalendar implements functions for editing or deleting entries.

Import and export data

Data can be exported to CSV or vCard files for safekeeping as well as for later importing it into the app. When it comes to birthday reminders, you can ask the tool to notify you one, two or three days, or one week in advance. Alternatively, alerts can be disabled.

Performance and conclusion

SE-BirthdaysCalendar offers multilingual support and can automatically run at system startup until further notice. It has minimal impact on computer performance, since it uses low CPU and memory.
On the other hand, it has a shortlist when it comes to features. For example, the tool is not equipped with an update checker. For what it's worth though, SE-BirthdaysCalendar serves its purpose, and can be especially used by inexperienced users.
There is also a portable edition available called Portable SE-BirthdaysCalendar, in case you want to directly run the tool on any machine from a mass storage device.
