Manage your phone messages quickly and easily with PhonePad!

Issue with PhonePad Version 5.76.0.

We have pulled PhonePad Version 5.76.0 for now as some users have experienced problems starting PhonePad.  When they try to open PhonePad it closes immediately and does nothing.

This seems to only affect a small number of users and happens on both Windows 10 and 11 machines.

We haven’t been able to reproduce the problem yet on our computers but we will keep investigating until we work out the cause of the issue.

If you are experiencing this problem please email support@cybercom-software.com and we will tell you how to downgrade to the previous version.

We apologize for any inconvenience.

Installation Information

Please note: Server Updates must be installed on your Server or Host PC, not your workstation (unless your workstation is also the Host PC) – they cannot be installed directly on your workstations.  Make sure all users are logged out of PhonePad as the PhonePad Server will be stopped during the update and then restarted once it has completed.  Workstations will be automatically updated when PhonePad 5 Workstation is started on each workstation. Important: When downloading and installing an update from your My PhonePad account, make sure it’s actually the update and not the server setup program.

How Updates Work

Please read: You do not need to install every update between this one and the last update you installed.  PhonePad uses a smart update system that compares your current PhonePad system with what’s in the update, works out what changes are required, and then makes those changes.  So if you are a few versions behind don’t worry.  You can skip all of the updates in between and go straight to this update.

Updates and Anti-Virus Software

Depending on the anti-virus software you use, when you install a Server Update your AV software may class the updated software as a different program due to the change in binary signature.  If you experience speed or freezing issues after an update, you may need to reconfigure your AV software to stop real-time scanning of PhonePad.  This may need to be done on the both your Server or Host PC, and your workstations.

Digital Signatures

All PhonePad executables and DLLs are digitally signed for your protection.

You can confirm that a file is safe by right-clicking on it and selecting Properties from the popup menu, and then selecting the Digital Signatures tab.

Downloading the Update

You can download the update from your My PhonePad account.

If you are a current trial user you can download the update by logging in to My PhonePad Trial using the email address you used to start your trial.

Please contact Support if you have any problems or questions.

Installing Updates

If you’re unsure of how to install updates, please watch the video on this blog post.

You will need to have a current Update Plan to install this update.  If your Update Plan has expired, you will need to renew it before you can install this update.

To Do or Not To Do…..

…..that is the question.

Or something like that.

Keeping track of tasks that need to be done requires a physical method of doing it so we don’t forget.

To Do Lists are often used for this.  They’re an easy way to keep track of what’s been done and what needs to be done.

PhonePad’s To Do List

PhonePad has a handy To Do List built-in to help you manage your tasks.

Use PhonePad's ToDo List to track tasks.Work and Personal To Do Tasks

With the To Do List you can have both Work and Personal tasks, while also keeping them separate.

Personal tasks are easily identifiable because they are shown in a different color to Work tasks.  The Work and Personal check boxes provide a way to show or hide both types of tasks.

Prioritize To Do Tasks

Each to do task can have its own priority. When you create a new task you can set the priority.  Of course, you can also change the priority of a task by editing it.

Prioritizing To Do TasksDon’t Forget Your To Do List Tasks

To ensure you don’t forget to do the tasks on your To Do List, you can add a reminder to each one.

Remember to Complete Your To Do List tasks.Due Dates for To Do List Tasks

If tasks have to be completed by a certain date, you can set a due date.  It will appear next to the task on the To Do List.

Set a Due Date for To Do List TasksIf that task is overdue, the Due Date will appear in red in the To Do List.

Overdue To Do List TasksExpiring To Do List Tasks

Tasks can be set up to automatically expire when they’re no longer of use.

Expiring To Do List TasksThese tasks will automatically expire after a set number of days from when the task was created, unless the task has been completed.  They will no longer display in the To Do List, unless you have the Show Expired check box checked.

Phone Messages and Calendar Appointments

You can easily add phone messages from PhonePad and appointments from the Appointment Calendar using drag-and-drop.

Add Appointments to To Do ListThis can be really handy for remembering messages and appointments you need to follow up on.

And a really cool feature about this is that, if you click on the To Do List task for either the phone message or calendar appointment, the phone message or calendar appointment will be marked as completed in PhonePad or Appointment Calendar!

Recurring To Do Tasks.

If you have To Do List tasks that occur on a regular basis, you can set these to be automatically created for you.  They will appear in your To Do List when the criteria you set is met.

Repeating To Do List TasksCompleting a To Do List Task

When you complete a task, mark it as completed by clicking in the first column of the To Do List.

Completed Tasks in a To Do ListIf the open the completed task, you will see a notification at the bottom of the window that indicates it has been completed.

To Do List Completed TaskSharing Your Work To Do List

This is a cool feature for teams.  You can allow other users to access your Work To Do List, and they can allow you to access theirs.  When someone completes a shared To Do task, it will be marked Completed on all shared To Do Lists.

Share Your To Do ListPersonal lists cannot be shared.

How Much Does To Do List Cost?

Nothing. Zilch. Zero.

The To Do List is included with PhonePad so there’s nothing extra you need to buy.

Make sure you make use of this powerful tool today.

We hope you like the PhonePad To Do List.

If you have any suggestions for improvements please let us know.

Telephone Message Slips for Businesses.

The most important thing to remember when sending a message slip is that it should be clear, concise, and easy to understand. It should also include all necessary information so that the recipient will be able to respond appropriately.

That’s where telephone message slip software comes in.

Automation Makes Life a Lot Easier

Software that prefills caller information and sends the telephone message slips to all of the recipients saves you time and avoids costly mistakes.

PhonePad is designed to streamline the process of taking phone messages and sending them.

Customize It to Fit Your Business Needs.

A good telephone message slip can be customized to fit any company’s needs.

PhonePad is remarkably flexible as you can rename labels, show or hide fields, and add your own drop-down list options.
