Advanced functions
easydb allows you to extend your the basic version with additional functions at any time. This allows you to react flexibly to changes and ensure that you always have the best solution for your needs.
easydb Base
The basic version of easydb supports all common image formats and PDF files. These can be described individually or in groups in freely selectable fields - free text, date fields, lists or categories. The metadata that can be generated in this way makes it possible to find and bundle all the elements that have been entered.
The display of large images is performance-optimized via the easydb zoomer.
Content is collected in workbooks, in "Collections", in order to send it by e-mail or to share it with colleagues, for example.
The three search modes 1. full text search with auto-completion, 2. expert search in fields and 3. access via lists and categories ensure that you can quickly find what you are looking for.
With the easydb rights management, every function and every content can be controlled in a differentiated manner. No one has unauthorized access.
