Credenza Practice Management Software

Credenza adds practice management capabilities right into Microsoft Outlook.

Most professionals organize their work in files, with a separate file for each client or project. Many professionals also need to track their time. Credenza adds these capabilities seamlessly into Outlook. Relate any Outlook item to a file and track all billable time. Credenza also manages documents, research, phone calls and custom information relating to each file. Collaborate and share information in a team with up to 200 users.

Credenza expands Outlook by adding dimensions that professionals need to manage their practices more effectively.

- Open a file in Outlook for each client, matter, project or case you work on
- Organize in that file all related Outlook emails, contacts, appointments, tasks and notes
- See all your documents on the file
- Keep time entries for your billable time
- Make notes of phone calls
- Track web-based research or information
- Keep track of whatever other information you want on each file using custom fields
- See a complete chronology
- Everywhere in Outlook you can see the file that items relate to
- Practice management utilities and reports
- Automated inbox controls
- Share information with an assistant, colleague or an entire firm

Credenza helps professionals be better organized, allowing them to be much more on top of a professional practice with it, compared to working with just Outlook.

And the key thing is, it works as part of Outlook, so professionals retain all the benefits and depth of Outlook, and don’t have to change anything they are now doing.

For those who bill for their time, Credenza makes it easy to do time entries as they work. For example:
- Bill for emails or phone calls with a click
- Know at a glance which emails have been billed
- Get a time entry when you mark a task done
- Send time entries electronically to your accounting program

All within familiar Outlook.

Credenza can be a personal organizer for a professional, or a multi-user practice management system for an entire firm. Information about a professional practice can be shared with one or more other Credenza users, while personal information in Outlook remains private. Everything on files is shared with those assigned to them, including emails and documents, so that professionals can work together more effectively. An assistant can manage someone’s calendar, tasks can be assigned between colleagues, phone messages taken and much more.

Credenza teams can be any combination of people who work together: a professional and assistant, two partners, a workgroup or an entire firm of hundreds of people. Team members do not have to be in the same office – they can be anywhere in the world, as long as they can connect to the Internet.

Credenza is available as a quick easy download, and can be tried for free. After that it is licensed for an extremely low monthly subscription that includes unlimited email tech support.
