It is on a good start, the variable feature works well. Free software, simply start typing with your keyword and it will autofill for you. So far, I have achieved a good result. Hope to keep using it.

Best alternative to Phrase Express for my use : replace a little text by a sentence I use often for ex. So usefull when I write reports. Last but not least : open-source project, doesn't collect my datas, free forever and still under development.
