Barca Pro is an advanced personal information management and e-mail software for professional and business users. It seamlessly integrates a calendar, planner, sticky popup notepad, diary, tasks manager, today screen, and email engine (ported from the award winning PocoMail).
Barca Pro users can create appointments or tasks right from their email, invite others to meetings, assign tasks to co-workers, plan out an entire year's schedule, write and save quick notes, and much more. Barca Pro provides a single interface to manage personal and business information, plan and schedule tasks and appointments, communicate with others, and collaborate on team projects.
Barca Pro is less susceptible to the virus and security vulnerabilities that plague Microsoft Outlook. Instead of using an Internet Explorer component to preview HTML messages, Barca Pro has a built-in HTML viewer. It includes the ability to launch your virus scanner, utilizes a proprietary scripting language, and lets you strip out all HTML from an e-mail message or neutralize potentially dangerous HTML tags.
With Barca Pro, users can now improve their productivity by managing their communication and work-related activities in a single, safe and secure location.

- Review what others have to say...
- “Given all of the recent virus activity on the Internet, security is extremely important for any kind of e-mail client. Barca takes an unusual but effective route to ensure the security of your e-mail... Overall, we are very pleased with Barca's ability to maximize security for its users while still remaining flexible for those who prefer a lower level of security. Barca is a fine option for anyone looking for an alternative to Outlook and OE.”- pcmagazine.com
- “Barca does most of the things Outlook does to help you organize your work and life, and it may be the better email client.”- about.com
- “Barca has more under the hood and less junk in the trunk than bigger e-mail-management programs. The personal information manager includes a calendar, a to-do list, a contacts list, and perfunctory e-mail filters and search. The Notes section stores plain-text jottings, while the Diary stores lengthier documents and allows formatting. The error log helps you figure out problems with your e-mail accounts. To circumvent service providers' maximum-recipient limits, the program can split large lists into smaller chunks. We also like the ability to trigger other programs using the calendar's reminder function. The interface looks familiar but works differently, hiding a number of features in right-click context menus rather than nested menu-bar windows. The program even includes a built-in scripting language for advanced mail processing and handling. At less than 6MB of memory consumption even when downloading e-mails, Barca makes a tempting replacement for Web-mail accounts.”- download.com editors review
