What People are Saying about askSam 5

"Congratulations to everyone involved with askSam Version 5. The new PDF file import facility and e-mail wizard are alone worth the upgrade.  I will have no hesitation raving again to my readers about how askSam just keeps getting better over the years without losing any of its slick usability and speed." ~ Colin Haynes, International Author of Computer Books

"askSam 5 is a really powerful freeform database. It gives you great flexibility by letting you import a large range of file formats. At the same time you can also enter data manually. Even more importantly, askSam gives you a variety of ways of finding the information you've stored. So, if you're looking for a database that's both powerful and flexible, take a look! You won't be disappointed."  ~ Dr. File Finder, a.k.a. Michael Callahan

"Data, like life, comes in structured and unstructured incarnations. Logically, data storage should, too, and askSam is the rare database that handles both gracefully. In short, askSam 5 database software enables users and workgroups that need to share unstructured information (as well as forms) to think and produce in new ways." ~ Jeff Angus, PCWorld

"Let me tell you that I love ver 5.  I have been using askSam since its DOS days and I have not found any other application that can manage documents as well. Being able to import e-mails with their attachments is a great idea." ~ a judge who loves askSam 5

"As a freeform database, askSam 5 is really slick. I'm a long time SQL database user and think that this is just what the non-technical, newbies need for keeping track of just about anything they can think of."  ~ Paul Mayer of http://www.paulspicks.com/  

"If you need a database program, look no further, askSam is the 800 pound gorilla of databases. It features ease of use, plus it is flexible enough to be customized for specialized uses." ~ Michael Dulin, President, A1 Shareware Evaluations, SharewareJunkies.com

"I downloaded the askSam 5.0 trial. I am very proud of you guys. It's got some terrific enhancements. askSam is an essential part of my software tool chest. I can research and collect data from anywhere and any source. Once it's in askSam I can edit, rearrange, organize, and search the information easily. Then I can present it and make it totally useful for other people via the web or CD. Fantastic!" ~ Valda Hilley, Author, Literary Agent, Teaching Consultant, Pack rat, and President, Convergent Press, Ltd.

"I have been using askSam since the first DOS version and have developed an extensive Medical Records Program/Database with it. I have over 3500 complete charts, some as long as 100+ pages, that can be recalled and printed to hard copy on demand and covering the last 6 years of my practice. The program is wonderful." ~ Robert R. Sykes, M.D. Mercy Medical Clinic, Nashville, Arkansas

"I've been using it for about a month, I haven't had a problem since the most recent release. Seems very stable to me. And the email import is very convenient with saved settings. Bravo!" ~ Jeffery Smith

"I must express the excellent impression that I got from the service orientation of the askSam team. This incites me to renew with askSam. I first used askSam for DOS since 1986. I tried not to repeat the information losses I had when writing a report for my first university degree. I had lost abstracts written on paper and found them only after I finished the work. So my Ph.D. director at the Max Planck Institute in Cologne gave me a copy of askSam. Afterwards I became one of the Ph.D. students that praised the benefits of askSam to favour the general adoption of askSam in the institute. When I finished my thesis I had 1600 documents, citations, ideas, bibliographical notes etc running smoothly on a 286 AT with 40 MB. I bought my own version when I left, and updated to Windows. Now I came back to askSam 5 and restarted using it. So, félicitations for your product, and its future versions." ~ Frank Thomas, FTR Internet Research, France
