You can sign up for a 14-day free trial without providing a credit card number. 5pm supports recent versions of Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, and Opera. You will need to select your own subdomain Video tutorials are available.
After you log on, you'll see four tabs down the left side of the display: Projects, Timeline, Reports, and Profiles. You'll probably spend most of your time working in Projects, which displays a list of projects in the left pane; click on one, and details such as tasks and progress indicators appear in the right pane. Hover over a project, and more details appear in a pop-up window-a nice touch.
I like the way you can customize 5pm, simply dragging columns to re-sort data, or dragging borders to resize columns. 5pm can sync deadlines into iCalendar compatible datebooks, including Apple iCal, Mozilla Sunbird, and Google Calendar. (The process takes longer with the last one; the company blames Google.)
