Anyone have any experience with a good programme to use, just usual stuff (names, address, phone numbers, email and a few notes if required etc), been using an old piece of Palm software for 15 years and it's starting to fall down with latest windows updates.

seen this but it looks a bit 'iffy'

I have an Android phone, so I use Google Contacts. Syncs with your Google account, so available online and can be synced with Outlook too.

But it's pretty dreadful, they keep renaming it and moving how you access it and some of these changes resulted in it removing distribution lists previously setup.

No idea about that specific software. I would say the whole Apple ecosystem works brilliantly for stuff like this. You seamlessly get all your contacts on your iPhone, iPad and Mac without having to lift a finger. And super easy to use in each instance. It easily integrates with mail and iMessage clients. As well as 3rd parties such as WhatsApp.

Google is just clunky by comparison.
