Electronic Home Database

Given how much information people are required to remember in modern life, there are a number of applications, as well as real life methods to help record information. Electronic Home Database is a program that allows users to store information on a vast array of subjects, in predesigned formats, to create a personal database of important information.

Electronic Home Database does its best to provide a comprehensive way of storing any conceivable form of information that people might need help remembering. The application includes a wide array of personal areas, including birthdays, contacts, appointments, guest lists, bills, recipes and diary entries.

The program also offers to store more unconventional information such as various collections, ranging from music, videos, books and a miscellaneous area. Electronic Home Database tries to include various semi-external areas for purchasing DIY equipment, along with job and university searching. One thing it doesn't include though is any form of basic security, a password feature would go a long way to protecting such a wealth of data.

While the standard data entry areas to store simple things worth perfectly fine, the areas that rely on external sources are less intuitive and come across as more cumbersome. The design interface is old and unclear, especially since it relies on opening a browser to complete its function, something that the old layout is not suited too.

Since many job sites and university sites perform the same service, just more advanced, it begs the question, why use Electronic Home Database at all? Many of its services are put under threat by tablet or smartphone devices, the price tag attached to Electronic Home Database will make several users question if it is worth it.

Electronic Home Database serves as a useful program for those who feel the need to make regular updates and to write things down. Having to check multiple online sources or various devices can be tedious, yet the lack of a modern interface and limited compatibility with modern devices, seriously puts the future of Electronic Home Database into question.
