New Update of the kalmstrom.com Resource Booking Tool for Outlook


Resource management in Outlook with Calendar BrowserTwo weeks ago we published an update of Calendar Browser with many improvements. However, there were still some things we wanted to make better, so today we had another release of our resource management software.

New in this version is info about Date in the Orders and Appointments lists in the Calendar Browser Overview, which is useful if you select a period of several days. Furthermore it is no longer necessary to restart Outlook after certain changes in the Calendar Browser Settings, and when an appointment is made with the calendar icon it will no longer show today's date but the day selected for the booking.

We have all been working intensely with Calendar Browser during the last few weeks. Not only has the application itself taken a step forward, but we have also new video demonstrations. Even the slide show has had a face lift. Welcome to enjoy the enhanced Calendar Browser!

Peter 40 years young!


The CEO of kalmstrom.com Business Solutions – and Sigge's and my son – has turned 40! The image shows Peter in his early teens, and as you see he has changed style rather drastically since then!

At that time he had just discovered the wonderful world of IT and programming. His grandfather had a computer that occupied a whole room, which Peter was not allowed to enter, so you can imagine how happy he was when the first small machines came on the market and he persuaded us to buy one.

Right from the beginning Peter was most interested in how computers could make our lives easier, so he started developing programs that helped him with the school homework. That was how his career begun, but I don't think Peter would have come so far if programming had been his only interest when he grew up. But it wasn't. Peter also studied literature, philosophy and religion, and he was fascinated by theater and film and tried both acting and directing.

Peter still reads a lot and sees much film and theater, and of course he still has his positive attitude towards new technology and its possibilities to solve many of the world's problems. Peter's father and I are proud and happy having such a successful and at the same time kind, helpful and interesting son!

Describe Resouces in Any Language with New Calendar Browser


Book resources and supplies as easily as you make an appointmement in the Outlook Calendar - with Calendar Browser from kalmstrom.comThe kalmstrom.com resource management application Calendar Browser has been updated to full support of Unicode. With Calendar Browser you can book resources and supplies just as easy as you make an appointment in the Outlook Calendar, and the administration is given smart tools for descriptions of the resources and for following up their use. In this release Calendar Browser has also been given an overall enhancement, as a number of smaller issues has been fixed. Refer to the Revisions page for a full list of the improvements.

Now you can describe your resources in a correct way whether your language is Russian, Arabic, Hebrew, Greek, Chinese etc. and of course also our special Nordic characters are supported. These resources might be anything that you need to share and book in advance within the organization - machines, rooms, cars and even people whose services may be booked. No wonder Calendar Browser has been so popular during its comparatively long life.

Peter first developed Calendar Browser for a Swedish town in the year 2000, when they could not find a suitable product for their room booking. After that the demand for this application grew, and he decided to market a standard solution. As you understand some of our users have been with us for many years now, and it feels really good to be able to offer them a continuously improved application.

Welcome to upgrade, Members and Support Customers, and welcome to try Calendar Browser if you have not yet tested it. You will be surprised that such an easy to use software can be so effective!
