Reviews/Testimonials

ZDNet (rating of 8.2)/CNET Editor's Choice: "If you're still using Word for Windows to keep your address book and your e-mail client as a PIM, then you should be using askSam. . .AskSam won't replace Oracle or SQL Server in running the company's bookkeeping, but it will help those on the front line wading through documents to get more information from their data."

PC Computing: "Whether your information is simple, structured, or random, askSam provides an easy way to stash it and an easy way to find it again. Best of all, since it behaves like a word processor, you won't spend weeks learning to use it"

Database Magazine: "I've used a lot of different tools for searching, but I've yet to find anything that approaches the depth, variety, strength, and sophistication of the search tools that askSam provides."

PC World: "Even computer-savvy users expect databases to be huge, hard to use, and best for storing and searching vast quantities of business data. The beauty of AskSam 4, the most recent version of a venerable product, is that it can manage large amounts of text but it's quick to learn and easy to use for much smaller data collections as well. . .AskSam helps you find needles in haystacks with its searching and reporting tools."

Web Developer Magazine: "askSam is the fastest and easiest way I know to make data accessible on the Web."

PC Magazine, Editor's Choice: "askSam remains an excellent choice for manipulation of real-world data."
