Leave a Review CLZ Books
CLZ Fan
I’ve been using the CLZ Apps for several years. I started out with the Music Collection but soon after, I got the Books app and the Movies app.
I have over 500 books in my collection and most of them added easily with the Author’s name or title. I read almost exclusively nowadays from Kindle, but I added paperback books easily with the scan function.
Recently, I have been reading newer works that unknown authors self-publish on Kindle because they are a heck of a lot cheaper than top sellers list books. If they are not in the database, they are fairly easy to add to the collection with book covers and an overview of the book. It’s a great app which I use all the time as I read a couple of books a week.Show lessGoodTimes60
Easy to use especially with older, obscure titles
I’ve been collecting since 1976 specializing in movie related novels and easily have over 500. I started using CLZ and it helps me identify and store all kinds of novels, even obscure ones like “The Werewolf vs The Vampire Woman”. You can take a photo of the cover or use what it finds online. It has tons of items you can fill out and if you use it to find it online it will fill out a number of them for you. Recommended.Show lessCrknaak
Great app to track my books
This is a great app for keeping track of your book collection, whatever you have. I have hundreds of books, paperback, hardcover, trade paperback, and hundreds of kindle books. The app is so customizable, and you can search your database in so many ways. By author, genre, publisher, type of book, read or unread. Customer service is great as well. These people really seem to care about you, and help to resolve any problems you may have. And you can keep your collection synced between your iPhone, and iPads. Works great, and it’s well worth the $15 a year they charge.Show lessThedeebert60
User For Many Years
I’ve been a CLZ user for so long I can’t remember what year I originally subscribed. CLZ makes managing my modest collection of just over 700 books (mostly aviation, astronomy and World War II history) a whiz. I particularly recommend the Book Connect option. With it you never need concern yourself with installing updates or wondering if you have the latest version at hand. If you collect and catalog your books but don’t use CLZ then you’re working too hard.Show lessBill P in Alaska
Best book catalogging tool
Love this app for keeping my library of books on record and well organized. No more duplicates which can be frustrating as well as expensive. I appreciate knowing my database is available to me on my PC and cell phone via the cloud, with no worries about maximum size. I’ve had this software for years and have enjoyed watching the developers continue to expand and improve its capabilities and design for ease of use. They’re always available and very prompt with functional as well as technical issues. I look forward to the future knowing we can rely on their growth and continuance.Show lesshalftracker
Very happy with CLZ
I have used this app for several months and couldn’t be happier. My book collection is small with 344 books at this time ranging from mysteries to books on Japan, quilting and travel/adventure. A little more than half are nonfiction. I always kept a paper record of my books and their location but feel that is no longer necessary as this app has never crashed or stalled. I will soon have more space for books and with CLZ I feel confident in keeping a larger collection.Show lessKf2Kt
Librarian-approved!
I have been using three of the CLZ apps for about 13 years now, on a variety of desktops and devices, and have found them all to offer excellent functionality. In the case of Books, I can fully endorse it from the point of view of a retired librarian with many years experience of book cataloguing. It does all I need of it, and more, and in addition is backed by excellent, prompt and friendly support from the developers. Very happy to give it five stars.Show lessAberlib
I love it.
Upon discovering in my shelves 3 copies of a biography of Scotty Reston, I realized something had to be done to get control over my growing library. I had been a fan of CLZ’s Music Collector for some time, so I naturally looked to Book Collector for assistance. I love it.
I’ve since converted to Book Connect to track the over 2500 titles in my library, but the “loving it” continues.
The system is comprehensive, user-friendly, dependable and robust. Does it have every tiny feature I’d like? No. Could it be improved? Yes. But the “Z-Crew” provide regular, free updates. I have no doubt that at some point soon those two answers will be “Yes” and “No.”Show lessoude kerk
Best book catalogue
I have been using this app for at least 5 years. I read a lot and it is easy to forget which books I read or which authors I liked.
It is easy for me to put the information in this app and keep track of my reading. It is easy to look up different books.
I especially like the attention paid to the app by the developer. Friendly emails with updates, and updates are continuous.
This app has been very reliable for me - I use their connect site and the app on 2 different devices with no syncing problems.
It is worth the money!Show lessKamyhalli
Organize your books now
I have two real passions in life.
Gardening and billiards.
That being said I have a really huge collection of gardening books with almost every book on Clematis in the world and the same can be said with my Japanese Maples books. Tropical books are really exciting to read to find new plants to accent the yard. I had so many books it was hard to remember them all much less know where to go to find what I was looking for.
This app and windows program are first rate easy to use and work so easily I am amazed. I also have 2000 movies and over 2500 music cds. So I got their apps for those also and they are life savers. Get them all you can’t go wrong.
Much better than all the others that I have tried.Show lessNsafellow
