Music Collector reviews from customers

Thank you guys for your tech support
I want to thank you guys for your tech support. This is the second or third time I've asked your help and you have always been quite prompt and thorough in your responses. I also want to thank you for adding a feature that allows me to input my older vinyl record catalogue numbers and getting a full listing of contents. Just tested with a 1965 Vanguard and it worked surprisingly well. You deserve a Nobel. I spent hours and hours entering my mostly jazz vinyl collection with 7.5. Now I think I can add my (equally large) folk and rural blues collection as well.

PHENOMENAL customer service
Your customer service is PHENOMENAL!!!! Thanks so much!
This is the type of old fashioned customer support that hasn’t been seen in two generations, which I remember growing up. I send in a question or request in the evening and the step by step solution is there waiting for me in the morning! It’s so refreshing that you’ve decided to run your business this way in this day and age!

Wonderful
Really wonderful software. I have over 2000 albums and discs to catalog now.

The support is superb
Thank you very much for the quick and helpful reply. I rather suspected it was due to an older version, but decided to leave it in your very capable hands to straighten me out. I renewed my subscription and upgraded to the latest version of both Music and Movie. I really think your products are excellent and the support is superb. Thanks once more for getting me past this hurdle!

Fantastisch programma
Het is ongelooflijk hoe jullie het steeds weer voor elkaar krijgen om nieuwe mogelijkheden aan een toch al fantastisch programma toe te voegen. Chapeau!

The program is a pleasure to work with
You're doing a super-good job and the program is a pleasure to work with every day. I have been collecting vinyls since around 1960 and have tried over and over again, first handwritten, then with a typewriter and finally with the PC, to catalog my collection more badly than rightly. Since 2013, since I've been using your software, I've been busy with a few exceptions, an average of 4-8 hours a day, cataloging my entire collection down to the finest detail.
Thank's again and I wish you all the best and stay healthy.

The bee's knees
Keep up the good work. I love your Music Collector, and I'm so picky that I wouldn't if it weren't the 'bee's knees' as we say, which it is. Take care all you folk - stay safe.

Good service
When I sent an email asking for help solving this issue with my expired program, purchased a couple of years ago, I truthfully had very low expectations that I would receive any reply at all, let alone one that was so helpful. You and your team responded in a helpful and polite way that did solve my problem, and the free upgrade to the version that would deal with the issue, as well as the offer of a discount on the most up-to-date version of the Collectorz software family, was most appreciated. It has given me a much higher opinion of your company, and good service has become harder to find lately.
I am not able to budget for an upgrade at the moment, but I will keep in mind the fast and helpful service I've enjoyed when I look to purchase again, and I will certainly tell my friends how you helped this previous customer when he needed it. Thanks again.

Catalogue of my collection
As a matter of interest I produce a one hour classical music programme on a local radio station here in Dublin every week and for the past 10 years or more I have been using CLZ Music to catalogue my collection and I am able to identify with great ease the music that I want to play each week. I have also found the phone app very useful to avoid duplicate purchases when I buy discs in a retail outlet as distinct from on line. I have suggested your product to others with significant record collections.
