    Is there any of you that still is using Catraxx? I am, and I stil love it. Been using it since 2009. The best cataloging program out there I believe.

    Yes, using it almost everyday. Still far away from cataloging 100% of my collection but I am going there. The more information it holds the more useful it becomes... To find out which recordings with that particular vocalist do I have? Which concerts were recorded in this concert hall? How many different Don Carlo do I have on record and how many live performances? Whose birthday is it today?
    Priceless!
    I looked at different other music catalogue tools but nothing comes close.

    P.S. FYI - I am using it on Ubuntu, running via Wine and all the functions work flawlessly! What an amazing piece of software! I keep backups in three different locations because this database is likely the most important data I keep on my PC :)

    I still use it for reference, and adding new digital releases that I download to my collection. Although Frederik has "retired" there is an active Facebook group for FNProgramware and it is rumored you can maybe still get a license, or at least an occasional update is still provided. And the fact that it can still download release details from Discogs is priceless.

    Because the database engine is MS Access, your data is most likely always going to be accessible even if the front end somehow stops working (but it hasn't yet).

    I have used CATraxx just about every day for the last 20 years - it's great! When for a period I thought it was no longer going to be supported, I looked long and hard for something to take its place and didn't find anything near as good. Like Asol, I keep it backed up in more places than one; it's that important to me.

    Is there anything else?
    Been using it since the previous century.

    I still use it a few times a week and am cataloguing my collection with it.

    still using it for up to 15 years now.

    although streaming gives me a moral dilemma. How do you take these favorite 'tidal'albums into account?

    still using, I don't know a better tool, besides it cost a lot of time to migrate my collection to another tool
