Just a working guy needing to learn a job...
Super Rolodex was born simply out of my personal necessity for a piece of software that would help me in my job as an Industrial Parts Consultant. There was a lot to learn and remember in that job, and no spreadsheet or word document was going to help - not by a long shot. So I sat down and began plunking away at my keyboard on what would eventually become the first version of Super Rolodex. There were many initial versions until it became a useful viable product. Once I felt confident that it was good enough to share at work, we installed it on several computers, and put the database on the company's server so that Super Rolodex would then be networked and everyone could benefit from sharing the data that we were constantly pouring into it. - It was an instant hit!
We use Super Rolodex for customer and vendor management stuff, but we also use it for everything, like: Hard to find parts and quick links to open bulletins and other pdf files on our server put out by our suppliers or even internal documents that we create ourselves. Anything that we ever thought that we might need to know in the future was entered into Super Rolodex, especially anything that took some research to find - that way the next time it would be a piece of cake, quick and efficient to find in Super Rolodex.
Super Rolodex is far better at providing additional information than our in-house software we already had. This was because with Super Rolodex, everything was searchable. You could find a vendor's phone number without even knowing the vendor's name - so long as there was some kind of related keyword on the record, such as a list of what products they sold, and of course all the people and departments that we might deal with and their phone numbers and email addresses. We even would put in what extension number to hit on the phone so that we could bypass the long-winded auto attendant.
Super Rolodex has made us much more efficient. This little Super Rolodex program has become an important ingredient to my success in my job making my research tasks much more quick and efficient, and am glad to have made such a useful product that benefits everyone who uses it.
Super Rolodex can be transformed into new software products in its own right because of it's flexibility to adapt to the users needs and using the Create New Database feature and the Design feature.
Support for Super Rolodex is handled by me, (the guy that wrote Super Rolodex). Although most everything is covered in the manual, and in articles and Q&A's on the website, if you should have a question then by all means please send me an email to redhousesoftware@comcast.net and I will do my best to address it in a timely manner. I would love to hear your input about the software and/or the support you have received because it is extremely important for me to know that I am developing happy customers, and am always looking for content to add to the website.
