Thanks for all the feedback. Just wanted to add that if you want to see it in action quickly we have some screencasts here:

Just spent the good part of 2 hours ‘tagging’ up my mail box. A pain but I can see the benefits. Good work guys.

Hey Kiran,

Could you point me to Alladin’s Categoriz link. Googling it didn’t fetch any!

I may give this a try again — looked at a version long ago and didn’t care for it. I’ve used Alladin’s CategoriZ – but it has given me random errors and the usability of it seems to distract me from my normal flow of inbox processing. I am also using SimplyFile from TechHit — and it has been a HUGE time saver for filing mail. If I could get the smarts of SimplyFile along with tagging, it could help.

But if my company would just allow us to use GMail with GTDInbox I’d be thrilled!

As others mentioned above, user experience has been underwhelming.
It consumes far too many resources. It is hard to see anything that boosts individual productivity here.
There are a few other add-ins that can help users with categorizing emails that aren’t resource hungry.. (Alladin’s Categoriz, for example). As far as productivity goes, TechHit’s Simplyfile wins hands down.

Hi Chad – the screenshots with the red labels are not really how it looks for day to day use. It’s the ‘everything you can think of on’ picture we provide just to show what you can configure and use.

Normally we are just the small ‘tagger’ area at the top and take very little room.

Ha! Is this a parody?! That’s got to be the most overcrowded, least user-friendly, ugliest interface I’ve seen in a long time. Just add another taskbar and a few more essential buttons on the bottom and I’m all over it.

Thanks for the review Robin/TC team. I work at Taglocity so wanted to provide some feedback to any questions here.

Yes, a big part of 2.0 was to make it very light on resources, so please do give the new version a go – we realize how important that aspect is and have just come out of a 3000 user beta program.

In this version we also have some new ‘Tag Auto Assignment’ features, so the amount of manual tagging should be hopefully a minimum, especially if your share your tags with others.

I tried Xobni too and had the same system resource issues even on a fast PC. I’d consider Taglocity but if it’s as heavy as Xobni, it’s useless to me.

Also, is there anything that extends the functionality of Outlook’s Tasks? If anything is in need of an overhaul, it’s that!

Do they have threaded email concept ?

I used Taglocity in the past, but not the v2.0. It is a great way of orgaizing emails with tags and I loved the idea, but here are some problems:

1. it eats a lot of resources – outlook is normally resource consuming when you are using it over an ipsec vpn and taglocity adds to that.

2. when you create new tags in taglocity, it basically creates a ‘category’ in outlook. Except for the gui where you could choose to tag emails when you send/receive them, its basically adding the email to a category in outlook.

My firm won’t allow Gmail use for work email, and forces Outlook on us. Tried Xobni, but it ate up my PC system resources. So this plug-in may be worth a shot.

Lets ban the antiquated term “bloated” from these pages. It is ill-defined and advances in hardware have the size of a program of vanishing importance.
