Welcome

About Much2Do and Much2Plan

To manage my own work I made two applications to manage my tasks and plan my workload: one for Windows (XP en Vista) and one for Windows Mobile (2003/5/6). I am using these applications to manage both business and private tasks.

The main difference between these programs and other existing task managers is that all tasks are saved in a treeview. This has two advantages. First, it means you can split tasks into smaller 'subtasks'. Second, it means that even when the amount of tasks is huge you can still overview the total workload. Even when I have 'much to do' I feel that I am 'in control'.

When I read a message board about ToDo software, I posted a message about Much2Do. After receiving countless requests for it within just a few days, I decided to make Much2Do and Much2Plan available for others. On these pages you can find the latest info on Much2Do and Much2Plan software, as well suggestions for customizing Outlook.

The latest news!

Januari 2012: Since the software is outdated, it is no longer available for download. I hope you will find a good alternative!

Januari 2010: Version 1.0 is released, of both Much2Do and MuchPlan. These versions are Freeware, no nag screens and no registration fee or donations required. The zip than can be downloaded also includes a Quick 'brief' manual to get you started. The main improvements over the beta versions are:

• It is now possible to add checkboxes to the ToDo items (can be turned on or off in Options)
• It is also possible to add numbers to items automatically (can be turned on or off in Options)
• The main items (root nodes) are now displayed in Bold so they stand out a little bit more inbetween the sub-items
• In the Planning you can now set whether you work on Saturdays or not and whether you work on Sundays or not, independent (used to be a single option)
• Exporting and printing has been extended with a few new options, among which clipping (both directions), to minimize the amount of paper used

January 2009: The name of the company Building/3Design has been changed to NatriSoft. There is no version 1.0 yet, so in the software and in the manual of the current version you will still find the name 3Design. You can still use the email address of 3Design, all feedback is welcome!

November 2008: I added a page with pictures and descriptions of my workplace at home, in which I live and work. Much2Do can help you organize your work, a comfortable work environment can make work more fun and can make you more productive! See this page.
