Once I punch the ISBN in the system, all the bibliographic details are imported automatically into the library system. Handy Library Manager enables us to keep offering services to the community despite having meagre resources. We downloaded the software for our community library free of charge. Amazingly, all the modules that our library needs are present; cataloguing, circulation, and reporting. The system enables us to charge overdue fines, compose library rules and allows patrons to search the catalogue. Handy Library Manager is supported by both new and old versions of windows OS. With Handy Library Manager, we still use computers with windows XP in the library. Cons Some of the OS that we use with Handy Library Manager are obsolete and are no longer supported by the vendor. We fear our library system could be vulnerable to ant-virus attacks. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Makeup artist E-Learning Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "FoxText is great service."

Student Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "A very useful tool for sending and calling" April 18, 2021 4.0 Foxtext is a simple and easy way to call or send a text message anonymously from a private number to anywhere around the world, through the internet. I like that it is free and doesn't breach your data. Although, it isn't the best place for sensitive messages. Either way, it is quite useful for emergencies. Pros It provides a quick and easy way to call or message a phone number internationally, totally anonymous. I like that there is absolutely no fuss - enter the site, type the number to send or call, and wait around 45-60 seconds for it to go through. The website has a pretty interface. It would be of great help when you are in an emergency and need to send a quick text, or when you don't have phone credit. I liked the swift and easy way it does the task. Cons Sometimes, there incurs problems like unable to send message/call to numbers of a particular country etc. Also, the site constantly asks you to share their services through Facebook or other socials. This can be discouraging. Review Source JL Jessica L. Cashier Consumer Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "So easy" April 11, 2021 5.0 Overall experience is pretty great. Pros This soft ware is so easy and easy to teach anyone Cons Sometimes it's slow but we jistnreboornkt Review Source Andrew H. Technical Director Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "A neat little texting web-app!" April 15, 2019 4.0 It's a great little texting app that is free and could be a great tool to have for emergency situations, when you need to send a one-way quick text, or when you want to keep your cell number private. Pros It's free! It's sent from a number other than your private cell number...if you would like to keep it private. It also works with most major cell phone providers. Considering that you are sending an SMS text message from a computer to a phone, I think it's fairly fast...around 45 seconds to send. Cons It doesn't support group texting. It's one-way, meaning that your recipient cannot reply.

June 18, 2022 5.0 An easy tool to send messages without having a phone and while being anonymous. Pros A very simple and convenient messaging app which can be used with ease for everyone. It has free versions available as well. Cons The processing time and a few bugs/errors that shows up occasionally.
