KitchenHub Family Organizer

TudorSpan Software introduces the KitchenHub Family Organizer, an easy to use Family Organizer, calendar, and planner that brings all your family’s emails, calendars and tasks together into one easy to read and easy to use place. Each member of your family has their own screen with their calendar, to do list and email, plus everyone has access to notes, recipes, shopping lists, the address book, and more.  It costs only $39.95 (you can also pay in British Pounds or Euros) for a single computer license. I downloaded the free 30 day trial which gives me full access to all the features.  This is the sample home screen:

Set up is easy and takes just a few minutes.  You enter the first names of your family members, your city and state for the weather info, and you have your home screen. The Settings link lets you enter the email address for each person, as well as synching calendars and address books.  I was running Google Chrome when I downloaded the trial, and found it had no problem connecting to my Gmail, Google Calendars, and my Gmail Address book.  The Internet icon gives you a choice of Google, Windows Live, Yahoo!, or Facebook, clicking any of them brings up the homepage for that site. Since I’m always signed in to Facebook anyway, I like having it right there.

After adding some items to the Family Calendar, I realized that the only drawback to this is that it is only a single computer-program. It would be great if my son could see the calendar from his laptop and my husband could see it from work. I hope TuderSpan releases a version that allows for multiple computers at once. Otherwise, I see a lot of potential in this software. It’s well laid out, it’s easy to find things, easy to add and delete and edit, and it combines a ton of information into one.  Download the free trial and see for yourself!
