Interfathom has released TaskMerlin v. 5.2, a flexible Windows project management application
that tracks projects from simple to-do lists to complex collaborative projects.
The latest version of TaskMerlin is fully integrated with Google Calendar and Google Tasks, enabling entrepreneurs and
managers to view and update schedules and tasks on their smartphone or tablet. Version 5.2 also delivers complete
integration with Microsoft SQL Server and Microsoft Azure, allowing global business teams to connect to a self-hosted or
cloud-hosted central database.
The Professional Edition of TaskMerlin makes it easy for project managers to use Gantt charts to track the project's
critical path and respond to interruptions and delays that affect the project's schedule. Gantt charts are created
automatically as project information is added. Editing of tasks is done directly on the Gantt chart, with new
dependencies and due dates reflected immediately on the screen.
In addition to Gantt charts, TaskMerlin makes it simple to share task lists, schedules, notes, and project plans. The
software has built-in appointment calendars and a powerful reminders system.
With its emphasis on flexibility, TaskMerlin provides customized tracking screens and reports. Project managers can
create user-defined fields, and rename fields to make them more meaningful. Project team members can be restricted to
editing only the data that is under their area of responsibility. The software can even tailor tasks to be compatible
with David Allen's Getting Things Done (GTD) workflow methodology.
TaskMerlin delivers a lower total cost of ownership (TCO) than most online project management solutions. A single-user
license of the Personal Edition costs $75(US). Licenses for the Professional Edition start at $150 per user, and
include integration with MS SQL Server and Microsoft Azure, as well as simultaneous multi-user database access, Gantt
chart support, and individualized email settings, popup reminders, filter definitions, and display options. Multi-user
discounts are available for both editions.
TaskMerlin v. 5.2 runs under Windows 8.1, 8, 7, Vista, XP, and Server 2012/2008/2003, and is easy to integrate into
Microsoft Office, Outlook, and other desktop software.

About Interfathom and TaskMerlin:
Since 2005, Interfathom has been developing and marketing project management and information management software for
organizations and individuals. Their flagship application, TaskMerlin, started when the company's principal designers
couldn't find a Windows application that delivered the rich feature set and flexibility needed to track information
and project status details for their growing company.
TaskMerlin is compact enough to use for the management of simple task lists, and scalable from personal use to a
multi-user line management or project management environment. TaskMerlin continues to evolve and adapt to the diverse
and changing needs of its customers, while remaining quick, secure, and easy to use.
