Millions of people around the globe collect things.
Some like coins, others rag dolls, third amass bottle
caps. With so much time spent on searching for and
trading collectibles, few folks have any energy left
for organizing their collections. Hence, things get
cluttered, hard to find and finally lost. It does
not have to be this way. Collmate is a software
solution that gives any collector willing to invest
several minutes a week a simple way to organize
collection and track their possessions. Collmate is
not collection-specific and can used to track
anything – from DVDs to Chinese vases. Basically,
the program is a database that supports multiple
collections. A person can describe a collectible,
attach its photograph, and enter any other
information, like status, condition, date of
addition, value, brief history and so on. Since all
that information can be exported (rtf, html, csv,
rtf, xls file formats are supported), information
about your collection can then be posted in the
Internet for others to see or e-mailed to fellow
collectors. Built-in report generator lets you to
create and print reports, item lists and collection
catalogs. A free Collmate Report Designer add-on
will do the job of designing a report perfectly.
As previously mentioned, Collmate supports multiple
collections, so one can split items into logical
groups, like US coins, foreign bills, precious metals
coins, phased out currencies.
Another great feature of the program is its address
book (contacts list). You can enter names, e-mails,
phone numbers and other contact information of fellow
collectors, traders and dealers here.
The program can automatically display all recent
additions to your collection. Big size collections
with hundreds and thousands of items can be managed
by Collmate too. With own built in search engine,
any item can be found within seconds. The loan
manager instantly shows which items are on loan, who
borrowed them and when they should be returned.
