I thought that this program would have a built in library - meaning that you type in the vintage and name of the wine and the vinyard, grape, location, and best years to drink would automatically auto-fill, but no, you have to enter all that information manually. Meaning that you have to take the time to look all that information up, and the program is just a method of storing it in an easy to retrieve manner. It has very few drop down menus and even then, you have to know the info to pick the right selection. Just as easy to use a word processing program and write you own description to catalogue your wines.

We have been getting ready to redesign our wine cellar and have not been using any inventory products, so the search was on. This has been so easy to use and so helpful that I could even begin the process without being in the cellar counting bottles. I really like the way it anticipates or understand the next category and automatically fills it in saving a ton of time.

Had trouble installing software with Windows 7 and called PWC customer support. They had me up and running in less than 15 minutes. Software runs great and I entered over 700 bottles of wine in less than 2 days. Help videos are great and so is the pre-loaded data on wines and regions.

It takes time to enter all your wines, but once done it gives you a huge number of options to view and understand your collection. Includes Bar Coding and conection to the Internet for current value and a search of Program Users to check with and see how they entered the same wine and rated it. Allows you to display and print a customized Spreadsheet to consolidate and carry with you or you can Sync to a Mobil device.

Home wine cellar
I am still in the process of logging in all my wine. It's a very laborious process particularly since I have over 900 bottles in my cellar. I like the look of the software on my computer. I would like to be able to do multiple level searches such as parse by varietal and then by age. So far I haven't figured out how to do this since it appears the software only allows one level of search at a time, i.e. search by varietal or age, but not both.

Great for managing your cellar. Was more than I expected. Can use as much detail as you like. Lots of standard reporting. Lacks the ability to customize some reporting.

I cannot update the software even after changing the settings that were required for the update. Otherwise it is very useful for organizing. A very nice feature is the ability to add a picture of the bottle label.

Reference
This is a software application that can cause me serious problems. The main difficulty is the inability to backup the data. I have 125 bottles listed and when I go to preserve the information, it sends an error code. If something happens to my computer the hours and day used to enter the material will be wasted and I will have not reference base.
