One of my biggest complaints was that the database of these programs wasn't large enough. It makes the initial maintenance and adding of future cigars a bear. Also, it would be nice if there was a better way to maintain outgoing inventory. I would have liked an icon that you would click that indicates that you smoked a cigar. Then a box could open for tasting notes, date, etc and the inventory of that cigar would go down by one.

Have you tried 2.0? It does have a feature like this...

The initial set up was the effort maintenance will be relatively simple

Not to be a complete ass but this has no relevance to my post or my request. I am not talking about managing the sticks in my humi from a tasting perspective. I have quite a few sticks and I am looking at knowing what is in there from an aging perspective, which boxes are in which humis.

The question was what you use to track if anything. That being a program a manual notebook system or a simple spreadsheet. I am looking for things to use not whether or not you think I should.

Sorry if this offends but I am not looking for 30 posts telling me to just have a look, in my case it isn't quite that simple.

I can see this being an issue with CR 2.0 that is why I was hoping for something a little simpler like a spreadsheet model that has already been set up with a multi humi format and a way to easily capture ins and outs without reformatting the entire workbook
