EFT (Eve Fitting Tool)

EFT is like the 'Fitting' screen in station, except improved. It gives a lot of additional information, like DPS, targeting range, max speed, etc and lets you see the results of different ships and fittings without having to train them/buy them first.

EveMon (Eve Character Manager and Skill/Ship Browser)

EveMon is a character manager. It is like the skill training queue, but similar to EFT it adds a lot of functionality. For example, you can right-click the skills to launch a "skills explorer" which gives you a branching view of what skills unlock what other stuff (skills, items, ships) at different levels, etc.

API (application interface to your character info)

Both tools (EFT & EveMon) make use of the official EVE api. Go to the link and grab your "limited API" info, which can be used to import your character data into the tools so, for instance, EVEMon can warn you when your skill queue is running low, or EFT can show you exactly how much CPU/Grid your ship with your skills has.
