If the pro version is on the horizon, and multi-user will be part of it, I can put off deciding on a process for a new document management system. Otherwise, I need to decide soon -- I'm trying to hold out for Benubird, because I like what I've seen so far, it just doesn't quite meet our needs.</p> <p>Chris </p> http://www.debenu.com/forum/topic.php?id=67#post-320 Mon, 22 Feb 2010 11:18:04 +0000 guppeey 320@http://www.debenu.com/forum/ <p>I have just installed Benubird PDF and it rocks..!

I keep coming back to this site for the last 6 months... hoping that i have the pro version up and running - with all the new features and feedback incorporated but in vain. </p> <p>Can the makers give some specific date... </p> http://www.debenu.com/forum/topic.php?id=98#post-311 Fri, 05 Feb 2010 16:14:45 +0000 cagliostro 311@http://www.debenu.com/forum/ <p>I think another great feature could be the possibility to scan document and attach it directly into the store.

Allmost all of the computers here at work are user-blocked (no access to administrator) so we can't install anything to our PC. Asking to do that (even if we know there's no risc at all) would result in a "NO-WAY" answer from our beloved PC-technicians. The only way to let them accept this is to prove them that Benubird can be usefull for everyone and does no harm installing it. To do so, a portable version on a USB drive should do the stuff and let us spread the word (portable word?) and, by the way, get us aquainted without leaving any trace on that work-PC of us. </p> http://www.debenu.com/forum/topic.php?id=67#post-307 Sat, 23 Jan 2010 06:32:13 +0000 viryu 307@http://www.debenu.com/forum/ <p>I have tried to make a portable edition myself, but without lucky. I really wanna find out a portable edition.<br /> Second, I have found out that, the software will write database into directory of C:\Documents and Settings\user_name\Application Data\Benubird. See, if you re-install your OS., all the database files are lost, then you must re-add the books(pdfs) into BenuBird. So, if there is a way to change the database directory, so that it can be backupped. When you re-install your OS., the database can be recoverred from where you backupped. </p> http://www.debenu.com/forum/topic.php?id=67#post-306 Tue, 19 Jan 2010 00:34:05 +0000 bcam01 306@http://www.debenu.com/forum/ <p>I would purchase a thumbdrive version. </p> http://www.debenu.com/forum/topic.php?id=103#post-305 Fri, 15 Jan 2010 15:56:28 +0000 dreamer 305@http://www.debenu.com/forum/ <p>When viewed in thumbnail mode, I can't see PDFs' first pages, just bigger Icons.</p> <p>Why? </p> http://www.debenu.com/forum/topic.php?id=102#post-304 Sat, 09 Jan 2010 21:26:41 +0000 vcrapsi 304@http://www.debenu.com/forum/ <p>When I open a document from Benubird, it seems to be in a resd-only mode.

I carry a small library of medical references on a thumbdrive. I currently have a naming structure to find documents quickly.

I don't believe there's anything out there that even comes close to this. If there is, I have been unable to find it. Commendable work. </p> http://www.debenu.com/forum/topic.php?id=81#post-293 Tue, 08 Dec 2009 01:12:13 +0000 robert 293@http://www.debenu.com/forum/ <p>I agree with Johan. I work in computer consulting and we exchange a lot of documents with clients. User-defined fields would be a godsend. Then we could embed data such as platform, software version used, etc. These things are currently entered as part of the pdf text and requires opening the document to retrieve the data. Defining our own fields would streamline a lot of our processes. </p> http://www.debenu.com/forum/topic.php?id=67#post-292 Sun, 06 Dec 2009 04:28:13 +0000 scotthwd 292@http://www.debenu.com/forum/ <p>I've been looking for a portable document management application for over a year, believe me there are none out there that are even close to this. So your application would be very unique. </p> <p>The most important thing to me would be the ability to tag and categorize, and add comments to my documents that I keep on a USB drive with a program that executes from the Drive and would not install anything on the computer it is running on. </p> http://www.debenu.com/forum/topic.php?id=98#post-291 Wed, 02 Dec 2009 08:42:54 +0000 rahulquest 291@http://www.debenu.com/forum/ <p>I just discovered Benubird - and its the closest that I have seen to an "IDEAL" document management system - which is simple to use and deploy. Somehow the overall interface, the features are perfectly thought out from the user's point of view - and not done by some programmer sitting in his own ivory tower. Hats off to Debenu for this... </p> <p>Few features that I feel will help a lot are, </p> <p>a. Add viewers of various common files like CAD, DWG, DXF, Common 3D modeling softwares etc. - Maybe you can have different versions for different sets of users - one for graphics user, one for engineering CAD users etc. </p> <p>b. Add facility to auto seek the meta tags from the file content and prompt user to verify and confirm. This can be used to search the files later. </p> <p>c. Add facility to have some customizable tags for every file - like Project Name, Project Number, etc. and we could then end up classifying all files related to an x project together </p> <p>d. Add a feature where it could modify the "original file storage location" to the new "benubird" structure - by creating folders, subfolders, categories, tags etc. on the hard disk - at the click of a button. This will save an enormous headache for classifying the files manually into different folders - like we did - about 60 GB of pdf / doc / xls / dwg / ppt / etc. etc. - and it took us a better part of 2 months dedicatedly to do that. </p> <p>e. Add feature to create temporary "file bunches" or "File groups" which are needed for a particular purpose - where various files are linked under that group (the files might originally belong to a X project) - but they are temporarily bunched to a particular group - which can be search friendly. </p> <p>By the way when do you propose to launch the pro version? </p> http://www.debenu.com/forum/topic.php?id=94#post-290 Sun, 29 Nov 2009 11:48:06 +0000 karldeabrew 290@http://www.debenu.com/forum/ <p>Good point -- in the future we could look to include this natively using our Quick PDF Library (www.quickpdflibrary.com). </p> http://www.debenu.com/forum/topic.php?id=67#post-289 Sun, 29 Nov 2009 11:19:48 +0000 karldeabrew 289@http://www.debenu.com/forum/ <p>Still talking on it ... but we've received a lot of positive responses on this?
