Comments and Reviews
Very intuitive interface and the feature of looking up online information of entries in online databases such as IMDB, BGG, etc. is fantastic and makes adding detailed new entries a breeze.
I've only started using it on my Ubuntu PC to catalogue my music and video collections in the last few weeks, but I'm finding it easy to customise what fields I want to use on the various databases. Only drawback is that there isn't a version available for Windows, otherwise I would have given it a 10/10.
Tellico is freakin nice app to manage any collection (I do movies, documentaries and videos). Note: on a non-KDE/Plasma clean OS it takes 165 MiB installed with the KDE libs it needs.
