BizBook is a small and lightweight desktop contact information management application which you can use to easily manage contact information of your family, friends and colleagues. By building a contact database with the help of BizBook, later on you’ll be able to easily find the people that you need by using the built-in search tool, instead of flipping through pages of regular phonebooks or even worse looking for the post-it where you wrote the number down.
This free Windows phonebook is very small, less than 200kb in size, which means that it’s perfect for those who do not have the computer power to run similar but bulky and cumbersome contact information management software that exists out there. There’s no need for installation either, simply download BizBook and it should run right away after you click on the downloaded icons. Interesting features found in BizBook would be:
- Profiles – several users can run separate contact information
- Password protection – each profile is protected with passwords
- Simple design and easy to understand interface (see image above)
- Inbuilt search tool which you can use to easily find contacts
Managing contact information with BizBook is very easy, and despite of its name which is a world play with the word phonebook, phone numbers are not the only thing that can be stored in BizBook, you can also store email address, website information and home addresses of your contacts.
