Continued Extraordinary Support
I’ve been a long time user of Tap Forms both for business and in retirement where I now use it for my daily tasks & appointments. Not being very tech savvy, I have depended on Brendan on several occasions and he always is there to help and spend the time needed to solve my issues.
Update to Pro
Having used Tap Forms 5 for several years I have recently upgraded to Pro. This was a simple process and the certainty of continued support is worth the price. On the few occasions I have needed support, the developer has been both prompt and focused on solving the problem - especially given the 8h time difference between Alberta and UK. I have no hesitation in recommending the App.

So grateful for the help from Brendan
I’ve been using TapForms through several upgrades and I’ve been happy with it. But I have a new Mac laptop and needed to modify and migrate my databases to Tap Form Pro to continue using it. One stubborn little database refused to migrate and I couldn’t make it cooperate. I was so frustrated. I contacted Support and Brendan replied. He emailed me many good suggestions and even sent a video. And he was so patient! The problem was resolved and I’m on my merry way, continuing with this useful program.

Comprehensive
Simply great software and well supported
From old to new
I was having problems getting my old files to work with the new app, Brendan was amazing at saving all my data and made sure it all worked for me on the new app. Amazing service, could not be more happy with this.
Long time customer
I was introduced to Tap Forms in 2014 when the Bento inventory program I was using was re-marketed as an industrial vs Mac OS supported tool. Fortunately my computer literate husband recommended the Tap Forms App which had already been on the market for at least 4 years as it served his own geekier needs for data management. I soon discovered how easy it was to migrate my in-progress document and continue it with a lot of new features within (then) Tap Forms 1.5, The app has since evolved with newer versions, most recently Tap Forms Pro.
Tap Forms does far more than just inventory which I dwell on only because my ~2 gigabyte inventory file is not just word descriptive and numerically helpful but has multiple photographic views of my individual collectibles. The developer, Brendan Duddridge, continued to improve his brainchild and it works seamlessly for big business programmers as well as the more casual users like me. It has been referred to as a digital filing cabinet but it does so much more. If you need to manage data, the developer has done all the hard work so you don't have to. He is also extremely helpful. Without reservation, I highly recommend Tap Forms Pro to you.

Great database, with actual customer support
I’ve used Tap Forms 5 since 2023 and just migrated over to Tap Forms Pro. Ever since the first setup Brendan has provided fast and personalized support to answer any questions. This was no different with the migration to Pro. Tap Forms is easy to set up and use, and I’m no tech wizard by any stretch of the imagination. I didn’t use a template but created my database from scratch in 5, completely based on my needs. I love how it’s adaptable when needs change. I’m an artist and use it to store info and photos of the work I make, the exhibitions each piece has been in, where it’s located, etc. The migration to Pro and data transfer worked without any issues. Big thumbs up for Tap Forms and for superb customer service by a real human!

Tap Forms Pro GREAT!
Tap Forms Pro is amazing. The developer, Brendan, goes above and beyond regarding Help and customer service. What are you waiting for - get Tap Forms Pro now!
An excellent app and good personal support.
I had used TapForms 5 for years and never found its equal for a personal set of databases. Upgrading to Tap Forms Pro was straightforward with minimal tailoring to suit. One database did have a “locked” problem but this was quickly sorted out with support.
Tap Forms Pro
I have been using this software for a large plant database (3000 records) for over 6 years. It works well is very interactive and allows many users with very little database background to understand the processes.
Awesome
I’ve just started with Tap Forms Pro and I am a former Tap Forms 5 user. I really appreciate the discount and all of my former databases transferred easily from Tap Forms 5 to Pro. I am alb etc get the same functionality and more. I am learning how to really maximize my use of this great new software.

Very happy
It is a great program, but , even better is the prompt personal backup from the developer
The only database you will need
I learned the basics of programming in the 1970’s. Fortran, COBOL, Basic.
Today, the ONLY database I use is Tap Forms. It runs on my Mac, my iPads, my phone, and my wife’s iPad and iPhone.
It keeps in sync between them, meaning make a change in one database, and all the others update quickly.
Very flexible and easy to design a database and forms to fill it out.
Basically, what more could you want in a database? 5 Stars.

Pretty, Pretty Good!
I’ve just started using Tap Forms DB Pro. I’m still discovering all the useful things that one can use this app for to better organize life. I just finished a Library Books DB that I can use as an instant reference to the almost 500 books I’ve read since 2016 from my local library.
Très utile et bonne base de donnée
J’utilise quotidiennement. Je passe beaucoup plus de temps à l’utiliser qu’à le mettre en oeuvre. La prise en main fut assez rapide et immédiatement utilisable. £Les mises à jour corrigent les bugs occasionnels. Il me reste à améliorer mon programme. Merci à l’équipe.
Excellent database
I used Tapforms 5 for many years, but Tapforms Pro is a street ahead of that. I have databases with over 30,000 individual records and they are handled with ease. This is probably the best database software I have ever come across. And the developers are so friendly and helpful. Thanks to everyone concerned for creating this.

A Delightful Software
I first bought this software in 2017, when it was recommended for those wishing to keep track of their pens/stationery. I used it for that, then quickly moved to using it to track my family’s businesses. Excellent for keeping track of clients, phone calls with customers, and businesses you work with, without having those contacts cluttering up your personal address book. I was on the fence about upgrading to an annual subscription, but the developer, Brendan, is a good sort and very responsive. I want to support him so this software keeps humming along and working for me. Highly recommended.

Great Bang for the buck
At first I was reluctant to pay for this as a subscription, but once I did, I do not regret it. The number of features and capabilities this application can do is phenomenal. Just with the calculated fields across linked forms (tables) is great. I was a big MS Access user and this application goes toe to toe with it from a feature point of view. Not sure how to do something, just ask google and tell it you are using tap forms pro and up comes the answer. Branden’s videos are a great place to start as well. The pick list feature is worth its wait in gold. I have no issues paying for the yearly fee just to ensure that the developer can keep adding great new toys to this app.

Outstanding database program (app)
I've been a Tap Forms user for many years - first on various Macs I have had and then on my iOS devices. When the PRO version came out, I switched and, although I dislike the trend to subscriptions, I have subscribed to the yearly option. I have come to understand and appreciate the problems developers have with Apple constantly changing (upgrading?) its OS. This requires constant updating which detracts from new development.
I confess I do not come anywhere close to using all the capabilities the program has to offer. My “needs” are simple. But I've always updated to the latest version because I am able to afford it and I believe updated versions run better and more efficiently. I keep telling myself that someday when I have the time I will get serious about delving into Tap Forms Pro many functions.
Another real plus for me is the prompt support that is offered to the very few problems I have had over the years. Brendan has always responded within a day or two with a clear and successful solution. My experience is that kind of support is rare. The fact that this man takes the time to respond so promptly is a huge plus in my opinion.
In summary, Tap Forms Pro is an outstanding program (app) for keeping track of any data one wishes to. Anything from simple cataloging various items to complicated calculations. I most highly recommend it.

Umfangreiche Möglichkeiten für private Datenbanken
Ausgewogenes Verhältnis zwischen Einfachheit und Umfang. Das Erstellen und Anpassen eines neuen Formulars geht sehr schnell, wenn man einmal das Konzept verstanden hat. Super ist die ‚Tabelle‘, also kopierte Positionen aus einem andere Formular. Der JS-Editor ist sehr komfortabel und die Log-Konsole nützlich. Eigene Layouts, die auf IOS und MacOS laufen sind der richtige Weg, hier ist noch Potential drin. Sicherungen und Export biete professionelle Einsatz, der Sync z.B. per iCloud ist schnell und problemlos. Was ich mir wünschen würde: Pickup-Liste auf gefilterte Daten („Suche“). Die Anwendung wird ständig weiterentwickelt, das ist super!
