Amazing, multi-purpose database creator

Amazing 3D database creator. Multiple use and so, so flexible and customizable. Examples and help manual really helpful. I’ve created multiple databases all within one application, which are able to replace other separate applications.
Still discovering and experimenting new features.

“Support “ respond really promptly.

Hope development of this amazing app continues,

Perfect for my needs

I had been using iDatabase for years to manage a VERY simple database that I want to sync on my iPhone and Mac. But their recent update is incredibly buggy, and has left me with a loss of confidence. So I researched other simple database options and Collections got nice mentions. I must say I agree.

I think too much software has become mired in complexity and so feature rich, that for most users, it’s severe, expensive overkill. So far, this is a nice piece of software at a very reasonable price.

All the features I need have worked flawlessly, and although the needs are simple, they are met with flying colors. If nothing goes wrong in a few days, I’ll be back to confirm, purchase the complete version, and give some more feedback.

Free limited version

Agter weeks of entering data and images, since your last update of the app, lost all my data nothing left even if this is a limited version, there no excuses for wiping all this work down he drain, no use starting again since it might disappear again unless you have a way of recovering all 100 entries i’ve lost…. Ok foune in setting to activate icloud, all’s back.

Somewhat okay, very limited information on actual usage

I have a need for a fairly simple database… 3-4 tables with a couple of relationships and a handful of fixed drop down elements. This program will "sort of" handle this but the relationships are very difficult to setup correctly and you are extremely limited on what information is viewable between them. There is also not an easy way (if at all) to view the linked information… for example, if you had an orders table and an items table (one-to-many), when you look at the orders table all you can see from the items is the first field, none of the additional information which makes it pretty useless. Glad I didn’t waste a ton of money on it.

Excellent!

This is a very customisable App which allows you to set up the different ways to display & sort your data. It is easy on the face of it but once you spend time looking closer - wow! Well done to the Developer!
