This makes Outlook a powerful tool for managing staff and matters, on top of its standard benefits: excellent e-mail, personal scheduling and task management. InControl also lets you track billable time for each matter, since all your tasks and appointments are now associated with matters. You also get the added ability to allocate the billable time associated with these items and send this time to your accounting system.

Due dates can automatically adjust (cascade) across related tasks when an earlier task in the process is changed. Reminders will be sent to team members alerting them of any upcoming due date before it's too late.

TeamContacts - Firm-Wide Contact Synchronization
Team Contacts is a component of Infoware's InControl Practice Management Software.

John Smith by one secretary or lawyer to be distributed automatically to all people using John Smith as a contact. Employees can even share a common set of notes about each entry in the contact list, ensuring everyone has access to the latest information. Notes made in your personal copy of a Contact card can be kept private as well. This unique approach to sharing contact information allows people to still use there own small group of contacts in their own folder, but have access to pooled information from a large public folder.
