StudentBerry_File6We have told you about StudentBerry before when it was announced in October but now it has finally been released for public consumption. The application costs $24.99 and is targeted towards helping students manage their tasks. Personally I wish this was around when I was in school.

Check out the software at www.studentberry.com and then you can download it at this link: www.studentberry.com/download. There is no word about a trial but I will try to follow up later once I give it a look. If you feel like checking it out yourself go to m.studentberry.com from your BlackBerry to download the application OTA.

From the StudentBerry website:

StudentBerry is a premier Blackberry® tasking application designed specifically for students. Say goodbye to non-categorized, difficult to track, basic tasks in the standard tasking program. Let’s also go ahead and bid a not so fond farewell to overly complicated, business focused, expensive third party applications as well. StudentBerry is the awesomely simple and amazingly organized alternative you’ve been looking for. Take a look at what you’ve been missing:

It’s been a long time coming, but we are ready to go, so head on over to that download link and pick up a copy or head over to m.studentberry.com on your blackberry and give it a try! Start adding classes and projects and get your student life organized!

Take advantage of StudentBerry’s features:

  • A complete daily, weekly, or monthly breakdown of assignments due organized by class and due date
  • Easy to follow color coding lets you know what you need to be working on first
  • Intuitive large project management: you’ll never fall behind on that final essay again!
  • Course Information including your class times and teacher’s office hours and contact information.
  • Track important dates, like exams, guest speakers, etc…
  • StudentBerry’s intuitive layout and hotkeys ensure you’ll be productive from the first time you launch the app.

    Hey Ronen,
    This is Ryan from over at StudentBerry, we’d like to thank you for the mention. So you know, there is a 15-day trial version available for download at both of the links you mentioned above. I suppose we haven’t done a good job of making that clear, I’ll go ahead and fix it as soon as I can. Thanks again for the mention!
    -Ryan

    Ryan,
    No problem. I still have to take it for a test run :) Hopefully I can find a student to review it.

    This comes the closest to my ideal task manager. The Rex Wireless app was okay. A bit clunky for my taste. I am not a student. Just a wife and mom. This. StudentBerry seems more intuitive to use. Nice.

    If I could get this customized for a general task manager, it would be perfect. The classes screen is great the way it’s setup. I would call it Category instead. That’s how I used it. I like the way the homescreen works. You can roll over the “class” name, and the notes scroll across the bottom. Helpful as another memory jogger. I look forward to using the entire free trial. Most times I delete apps before the trials are completely over. Usually because the app was just wrong for me somehow. I don’t think that will happen with this one. I am not an employee of StudentBerry. Just an impressed future user.

    Pam I agree. I wish StudentBerry would come out with a non-student version of the task manager. I am sure it would do pretty well.

    Just downloaded the app and it is pretty good. I’m a college student and 25 seems a little high if your aiming this product for college students like me working and going to school just thought maybe I would rant about this a little… yeah I know blackberry’s are mostly corporate and I understand some people have that type of disposable income but I think I’ll hold off for now because at the moment I do not either way its a great app keep up the great work!

    I am currently a nursing student and will be trying this ASAP. I heard about it over at crackberry.com. Hopefully I’ll have some good uses with it. Mostly, I am looking for a way to view my week, month, day in order to assess the week/month, and plan my tasks for the day accordingly. That’s a lot to ask for but hopefully I’ll find what I’m looking for.

    Good point Rick. I would love to see what a college student would think of studentberry. BTW they did lower the price to 19.95 recently at http://www.studentberry.com/

    Nick, let me know how it goes for you!
