Bento, The easy database

The first version of Bento from Filemaker came out just over a year ago. It quickly became a very popular application. Heck, why wouldn’t it be? It is the easiest self working form of a database available. There is no thinking required to use it. Just input the information you want to keep track of and you are done. Better yet, you can custom add input areas and drag and drop areas to make everything the way you want it. Now with Bento 2 and the addition of their iPhone app, you can set up your database and take it on the go with you. So now you can always have your DVD inventory right at your fingertips whereever you go.

    Hey Corey,
    I’m sure someone has already told you this, but just in case…
    “Bento” is pronounced neither “BEN-TOE” nor “BEN-TOO”.
    The “to” part is pronounced like the beginning of “top” (without the “p”), if you say “top” with an English accent.
    That said, the standard pronunciation in English would be with the “TOE” ending.
    Bento is a Japanese word – ?? – which means lunch box.

      I beg to differ. The people at Bento pronounce it “Ben-Toe.”
