ConsultComm is a Java-based program designed for managing multiple projects. It is lightweight, platform-independent and ideal for small teams.
What makes ConsultComm unique is that it can be easily integrated into your existing time management or billing system, so you don't have to completely revamp your workflow to use it. The software also includes JDBC support, which means you can easily upload all your times and projects into most JDBC and ODBC compliant databases.
ConsultComm is released as open source, which is great news for anyone concerned about vendor lock-in or customization problems. You can download and use the software freely under the GPL, without having to worry about paying any license fees.
The software is also quickly extensible by utilizing plugins created using the standard JavaBeans framework. Users and other developers can easily create their own plugins to quickly add custom functionality to the program.
Customization is also at the heart of ConsultComm, which can be easily tailored to your personal style preferences thanks to SkinLF.
The latest release of ConsultComm includes a toggle to turn the JDBC plugin on or off, ensuring that all currency follows the Java locale, fixing the .spec file to remove the deprecated "Copyright" tag, and adding a new ConsultComm icon. Some dialog boxes were also moved to Sun's new absolute layout, and the TimeTracker plugin now defaults to uninstalled in Windows.
