Articles & Reviews of askSam Products

"Although the latest version of this free-form database—which has been around since the days of DOS—can be used to augment a PDA by allowing users to set up a homespun contact manager, I was far more impressed with the software's ability to organize free-form information like news feeds, product spec sheets and testing notes."

"It also excels at finding just the needle you're looking for in an unorganized haystack of data because its text database capabilities include direct match, Boolean, proximity, and fuzzy searches. You could take a lifetime's worth of e-mail messages, for instance, and dump them into askSam, each as its own document. You'd then be able to retrieve specific messages by date, subject, author, or specific words in the content.
