Unlike most other PIM products the original Threadz Organizer did not have an API and Lotus only added very rudimentary programming and interaction facilities to the program through the years.

A price drop, and a minor expansion of the facilities alongside a much more coherent marketing effort tuned the Lotus release of the product into an almost overnight sales success. The company decided to buy Threadz Organizer and market it as Lotus Organizer even if it a was functionally only a subset of the Agenda product. There was an internal Windows port of Agenda but it was so problematic that it was quietly shelved. Originally released in around 1990 as The Organizer by a British company called Threadz, this sold reasonably well but was hampered by lukewarm reviews, fairly high price of UKP 199 for rather limited facilities in comparison with DOS based PIMs and the amateurish marketing and distribution done by the original company.Īt the same time Lotus was seeing falling sales of their Lotus Agenda PIM for DOS and user requests for a Windows version of the product.
