 Ezidoesit Standard Edition is a low cost cut down version of Ezidoesit Professional Edition. This starter version of Ezidoesit gives Microsoft® Outlook© users the ability to save at least 60 minutes a day with faster and easier ways to organize their work. More than at any other time in history businesses today need to get more work done with fewer resources – less people and less time. Email is a necessary and important tool in business today but it can become both a distraction and cause stress because too many options are presented to the Outlook user to work on. It is stressful trying to juggle competing demands, fitting everything in and doing the important things first. Ezidoesit, through a simple and smart user interface, allows the user to create tasks and schedule these into their Outlook Calendar.
How it Works
The user drags and drops work and action emails onto the Ezidoesit Elevator bar. This quick and simple process creates an Ezidoesit task and enables the user to automatically schedule the task into their Outlook Calendar. Ezidoesit allows you to select the day and the time when you will start the task and when you save the task it is scheduled around other existing meetings and tasks. Critical and high priority tasks push in ahead of lower priority tasks and re-schedule them later in the calendar.
Then the user works from their calendar not their inbox.
Because Ezidoesit is fast and easy to use, the user can get organized quickly and with less stress and pressure. Important emails that require action are not lost; a problem that might damage both the user’s reputation and that of the business they work for. We call this Smart – Simple working!
The Problem
We work in a space of “increased complexity, saturated with multi-tasking, interruption, and profound information overload. The effect of this cognitive overload at a social level is tension with colleagues, loss of job satisfaction, and strained personal relationships” (Kirsh, 2000 p.20). This all adds up to a stress load that will impact on your physical health.
The Solution and why you should use Ezidoesit
“In my job, I receive a number of “tasks” by way of email request. Ezidoesit allows me to blend my email requests into my other tasks by simply dragging the email message over to a high, medium or low priority task list – Ezidoesit does the rest!” – North Dakota Lawyer

Outlook Calendar Schedule
Ezidoesit Tasks are displayed in your Outlook 2007 Calendar in the colour of their priority. In 15 seconds or less you can create a task and schedule it into the calendar from any email.
Ezidoesit Tasks are scheduled around meetings and appointments that you have entered into your calendar plus any regular breaks (lunch etc) you have set in Ezidoesit. Tasks can be automatically scheduled over multiple days and time slots. Changing or moving Ezidoesit Tasks in your Outlook Calendar (by drag and drop) automatically updates the Ezidoesit task.
When you add an Ezidoesit Task from an email there is the option to move the original email into a folder under your Outlook inbox.
Having less email in your Outlook inbox gives you a huge psychological boost. You know the email requests have been turned into tasks so there are no more concerns over forgetting things.
Performance Gauge
The Performance Gauge in Ezidoesit shows how efficiently you are scheduling your work.
Clicking on a section of the pie chart shows the hours, number of time slots and tasks that make up those hours. You can see how much of your work you schedule with Ezidoesit and how much free or unscheduled time you have left.
Ezidoesit Standard Edition is a cut down starter version of Ezidoesit Professional. It does not have the following options which are in Professional – Ribbon View, EziView, Gantt Chart, Time Usage, and in the task you cannot tag the task with keywords, an Outlook Category and select a final folder to move the original email to.
Ezidoesit Standard Edition is a single-user product and cannot be used with Ezidoesit Workgroup Edition. Standard can be upgraded to Professional or Enterprise.
