Mac and PC Products I use and can Recommend

I am getting away from Adobes’ current subscription model and going with MUCH less expensive alternatives

SOME OF THE ALTERNATIVES I AM USING AT THE MOMENT

Darktable for Adobe Lightroom Alternative

Affinity photo as alternative to Adobe Photoshop

Other Options

There will be another learning curve to deal with but in the long run - much less expensive

Oh - I also do Database Design

We all have an abundance of information that we track or file away for some future need. Some of us keep sticky notes and written records,

some of us keep our most important data in a spreadsheet.While these methods do work, do they allow you the ability to quickly find and utilize your information?

The data kept in a spreadsheet is useful if you need to do calculations or sort a few columns before you print a hard copy, but is not much good at sending this information as an email in an appropriate format

If you need to utilize your data in other office programs, you may find yourself cutting and pasting or worse - retyping the same information more than once.

Utilizing either Microsoft Access or SQL Server, we can create a customized interface to your data.

Keep your information in whatever format and office program you wish, but have it immediately available to your other programs.

Have your programs to "talk" to each other.

For a database solution tailored to your needs please give us a call at (250) 665-6880 or email us @wyeco@shaw.ca
