If you have a mac and a small business then this small but powerful database application will keep track of your orders, stock, customer details, 'to do' list and has some basic invoice and accounting functionality. My ethos is to keep things as uncomplicated and quick to use as possible, leaving you free to run your business with all information at your fingertips.

Organise is small, self-contained and standalone. It doesn't require you to buy, licence or install any other database application.

In addition, Organise can export your data to a csv file which can be opened in a spreadsheet application such as Excel or used for mail-merging using Word. Data can also be exported as html for web publishing.

Newer versions of OSX do not come with Stuffit Expander included. If your computer doesn't know how to open the .sit file, then you may need to get the free Stuffit Expander

Here are some key features of "Organise":
Contacts - Contacts may be Suppliers / Customers / Other. Store all of the usual details - address, phone numbers, email etc. Searchable by keyword.
Orders - Each project, commission or order has an entry in this list. All details of the order - status, details, financial details - are stored here. Each order can be linked to a contact from the contact list. Searchable by keyword. With all of these details stored, producing an invoice is as easy as pressing a button.
Bill of Materials - For each order you can create a list of materials. This can either be a list of materials required to complete the order, or a list of items that constitue the order. In the latter case these items can be listed on the invoice.
To Do - keep a 'checkbox' to do list with completion dates.
New Products Tab - New with version 1.2 is the products tab. This allows you to store information about products or services, and broadens the range of businesses to which Organise will be useful. The manual contains some example scenarios.

Limitations:
lincence key prompted for if you enter more than 14 contacts, 14 orders or 14 items.

What's New:
Fixes issues with linking contacts to companies
