PICK

It’s probably a good waste of memory to remember all objects in your household. However, you might rent a place and want to keep a tight inventory of things, just in case something unexpected occurs. Luckily, this can be done a lot easier with the help of applications like PICK, letting you keep a close record of almost any kind of item.

The application first takes you through a quick and effortless setup process so it integrates in your system. However, to be able to properly use its set of features you must check whether or not .NET Framework is on your PC, because it’s a mandatory requirement.

Accommodation is a walk in the park for individuals of all levels of experience thanks to the clean, intuitive design. One of two sections represents the actual database you can populate with multiple items and organize them in a tree view by simply dragging them around. There’s no difference between regular items and folders though.

The other section is where all details are viewed and modified. Note that simply filling in fields without creating a new item first discards changes. None of the detail fields are mandatory, and you have the options to write down item name, model and serial number, color, purchase date, quantity, price, and additional notes.

All data is saved by default as an XML document, which is pretty flexible by default. On the other hand, the application allows you to import data from an existing CSV file and also save under this particular format. View options allow you to change font size and color, while the built-in search function makes it easy to identify any item in a crowded database.

Taking everything into consideration, we can say that PICK doesn’t necessarily have to involve items in your own house as the general functionality rule has it, but can freely be used with any item which fits with the provided description fields. It’s lightweight, easy to use, and the search function is sure to instantly provide requested items.
