Best PIM for project management?

Completely agree, that app store is strange indeed :-) I’ll have to check out Amode.

FYI, the app I was referring to was the cheaper SG Project. The more expensive Pro was overkill for me. I believe it rolls up all of the developers other project-oriented products, including my app, risk management, and others for heavy-duty users.

Cheers
