SoftCAT is a database utility designed to help you organize your software.

Not only will SoftCAT help you know what you have and where it is, but it will also help you keep track of important information like serial number, registration name, and other registration information. You never know when you NEED this information!

More than 30 data fields will help you track information like program title, version, publisher, platform, type (commercial, freeware, shareware, etc.), category (Desktop Enhancements, Games, Utilities, etc.), price, installation date, installation folder, product homepage, serial number, and registration name.

You can password protect your database to prevent unwanted users from opening your database. Use the backup function to make backup copies of your valuable data.

SoftCAT uses pop-up menus for quick access and navigation. SoftCAT comes with a sample database to get you started and a comprehensive context-sensitive on-line help system.

SoftCAT is intuitive and easy-to-use, and you will soon find that SoftCAT is all you ever need to keep track of your software.
