    Wonderful Way to Get Organized

    I went to a class on paper organization in the home, and had this product recommended to me. I decided to take a chance on it (it IS a bit of an investment), and am so far very pleased.

    The plastic hanging folder tabs are durable, well designed, and very easy to read from the front or the top. Also, the ability to group files together by color is fantastic. For example, it allowed me to make all of my financial files green, without having to otherwise divide or explicitly label each file as being financial in nature. There is an option as well for large indicator letters to be printed on the hanging folder tabs, so it is very simple to organize alphabetically within the color-coded categories.

    There are some things to be careful of however. First of all, the starter kit is very limited in number, presumably to make the costumer return soon to purchase a refill kit. There are only two sheets of labels ( ~ 20 on each sheet), so if you plan on reorganizing an entire filing system, probably purchase one or more refills right away.

    Also, make the printer adjustment very carefully, as I was in a hurry and almost wasted most of my first sheet of labels. Do the test and play around until the printer is calibrated correctly.

    If you are interested in getting organized, this is a wonderful product if you are able to put in the time and monetary investment. Coupling this with an overhaul of a long past-due purging of a filing cabinet would be ideal (if you have a free weekend sometime!). Just make sure not to make typos or other mistakes, as the supplies are precious!

    NOT MAC COMPATABLE

    Make sure you know the software does NOT work with a MAC. We were unaware when we purchased it that there is no way to download it to a MAC.

      The Best Invention Since Sliced Bread!

      By Lynette

      from Orlando, FL

      Comments about Smead® Viewables® Labeling Systems, Starter Kit:

      I absolutely love the Smead Viewables system. I use them personally and, as a professional organizer, I encourage all of my clients to use them for their personal and business files. The 3D hanging tabs make finding files in a crowded filing cabinet a breeze and it's wonderful to be able to color code tabs by subject.

        Comments about Smead® Viewables® Labeling Systems, Starter Kit:

        Why all file companies don't make this the standard for file systems is beyond me. If your files are below eye level the FILE NAME pops out because it is printed on top of the tab. If the file is eye level it works like all other file tabs. If you are standing in a position behind the files you can still see the FILE NAME.
        The program allows the tabs to be printed in color or black so you can tell at a glance what type of file it is according to your color code system. The tabs stand above the files so they do not steal space. The program to print the tabs comes with the initial package. Print, peel and stick the label to the tab. Then just insert into the hanging file like any other plastic tab, but this is far superior.

        I can see all my file headings!

        By Maureen

        from Shoreview, MN, USA

        Comments about Smead® Viewables® Labeling Systems, Starter Kit:

        This is one of the smartest inventions since filing began! Bold, colorful type on sturdy tabs that withstand heavy use. Great for the seasoned office professional but a 'must have' for the folks who have a real aversion to filing. These make filing so much easier and less time consuming because you can see/read from almost every angle!

          I use this system at work as well as at home. I can find items almost instantly and don't have to rummage through a file drawer trying to read the labels. It is easy to use, color codable, and makes your file cabinet a work of art! It is a little more expensive to use but the extra cost is worth the result.
