So Much More:

"I design, build and manage a whole bunch of web sites. For all the web sites I manage I need to record all the client details, the web site details and work undertaken during the month. I use Tap Forms to hold all this information so I quickly see how the web sites are configured as not all of them use the same plugins. I also use the web site details to keep a track of my google search terms and page rankings."

"I am building a digital family history archive, which I intend to be interesting to my relatives, children, and other descendants. I have mostly photographs, but also a variety of one-page documents including marriage certificates and kids' work at school. All of that can be scanned. I also have some longer texts and text-photo combinations that go in PDFs. To date, I have 1200+ items organized in the archive on my hard disk, and in a website version. Eventually I'll work my way out of my family's paper past into the recent digital past, and start drawing items from my hard drive: iPhoto collection, audio, and video."

"I’m a graduate student in history and I use Tap Forms to organize the sources that I find in an archive. Most documents are hand-written, so I retype them into a note in Tap Form so that it’s easier to analyze them."

"As a fiction writer, I use Tap Forms to keep track of submissions to agents and editors. I have agents’ names, photos, submission date, current status, comments on manuscripts, submission requirements, and days since submission. I could do most of this with a spreadsheet, but the limits of a table view are too restrictive. Tap Forms gives me the flexibility I want."

"I am an Antique Dealer dealing in silver and Jukeboxes and was a great fan of Bento which finally gave up on me. Tap forms has been a life saver, a lot of my stock is out on loan to other dealers in repair workshops and without a database I would not be able to track. Being able to keep related files helps with research on an object and its photographs."

"My company provides Tech support and sales for education and SME’s. I’ve used Tap Forms on iPhone for years to record my daily mileage which is then a simple export for my expenses claim. I’ve just created a Supplied equipment inventory – with which I can barcode scan equipment to enter the serial number. This means I can look up any supplied equipment to check warranty details."

"I use it every day to run my software and services company. I used to use Bento, then moved to Filemaker, and wound up landing on Tap Forms.

• Dashboard: The dashboard has my to dos, idea storage, long term things I’d like to do, My sales pipeline summary, things that are ‘floating’, and current project summaries. I look at this everyone morning over a cup of coffee.
• Contacts: This contact manager not only stores the usual info, but will also keep track of where they came from, if I should keep the contact ‘warm’, amount spent, days since last contact, and the usual notes about the contact.
• Sales Pipeline: In addition to the usual data in a pipeline (company/person contact data, etc), it will also track stage, probability of close, lead source, contact position, company size, repeat customer, potential value, date added, days since added, date won/lost/abandoned.
• Project Manager: This is pretty straight forward, but that’s what I love about it. It will track name, priority, % complete, stage, dependencies, project % complete by deliverable, external documents, customer stage sign off, notes (many types), software bug tracking, and more.
• Invoicing: This is very basic, but hey, invoices do not need to be as fancy as people think. But, in this case it tracks category, description, units, PO#, etc… The usual stuff an invoice should. I print it straight to PDF.
• Accounts Receivable: Very basic… just who owes us what.
