Ok, I need some ideas for organizing and tracking sessions in 2010. I used to use Apogee session tools but over the years (like 20 it seems) it's just become outdated. I've realized now that I have like 10 different programs keeping track of sessions, now I need something to pull it all together in a way that makes sense for todays sessions,
Calendar, invoicing, payments, emails, files, shipping... basically something that pulls all the info into some kind of usable format. Maybe it "starts" a session with a calendar entry, this automatically creates a "session". I can then somehow link or it's a smart folder that consolidates all of the info for that session into one place.
What are some of you using, either mac or PC? Plus'-minus'?

You could try to create your own version with either Access or a less proprietary version of Filemaker Pro. The raw program is very powerful (Filemaker Pro). It's used as the basis for many many database commodities. I believe there is a database component of Open Office as well.

I'm not busy like you so Quickbooks 2010 does most of what I need. Many piano techs and instrument repair techs use Shop Tracker Pro.
