Cozi Central
Not quite what I expected

Pros: Nice-looking and easy to use
Cons: You have to sign up online to access it. You can't view the monthly calendar with your appointments on it, the appointments are not directly on the calendar.

Cozi Central
A happy product for busy families
by: dottedi

Pros: Cozi's UI is bright and clean, overall "happy looking". The product itself is easy to use. We especially like the Send to Phone feature; it's ideal for families on the run. It may take us a while to get into the routine of using an electronic shopping list, but Cozi gives us good incentive: When I just happen to be at the store (sans paper list, of course), I can call Cozi and get the shopping list sent to my cell as a text message. That's a beautiful thing. Another great feature: The photo collage screensaver. If you're a family that has loads of digital photos stored on your PC, the screensaver will soon have you all clustered in front of the monitor looking at photos you didn't even know you had. Nothing like returning from walking the dog in a cold Northwest rain and being greeted by long-forgotten photos of your family trip to Hawaii! Finally, the calendar features are pretty cool - slightly different than what we're used to, but easily integrated into our lives. Again, easy to use - we added our grandmother to the family account, and she actually checks the kids' schedules from her senior living complex!
Cons: Calendar is not integrated with Outlook (although the support personnel tell me it's planned for future versions)

Cozi Central
Perfect for the family

Pros: My spouse and I use Cozi Central exclusively to coordinate our busy family calendar, track shopping lists, and pass messages. We've replaced our old paper calendar with an old kitchen PC that's just for running Cozi Central, and it works great.

Fantastic Program!
by: TheDenverFan

Pros: My family has been using Cozi for nearly 2 months and are thrilled with it. With four kids, one with a full-time boyfriend, we have 7 people who use it constantly. The oldest are in college, living at home. Next is a high school senior, a junior, and an active 9-year-old. Dad is a pastor - mom is a software engineer - life is crazy all the time.
The older kids can check the schedule from school, add their events and even add to the shopping list while sitting in their college classes. My high school daughter can do the same from her school - making scheduling so much easier. My husband and I can each add or update events from wherever we are -home or work - and the changes or additions instantly visible to the rest of the family.
The color coded system makes everyone's schedule so easy to see. The fact that it can be accessed from home or on the web means anyone in the family can use it whenever it is convenient. And how wonderful it is to be able to call Cozi and have it send the current shopping list right to our cell phones!
We love this program and use it constantly. It is the absolute BEST program to organize and coordinate the busy schedule of a family. Thank you Cozi!
