This is a much requested feature which allows you to combine your existing Windows Explorer file structure with Benubird’s data management.

The new version can be downloaded online and as with the previous version, it’s completely free!

We know that a lot of people have been looking forward to this new version with direct linking, so we’d love to hear your feedback on the forum about this latest release.
