Tap Forms is great !

Years ago, I used to use the database function of ClarisWorks (later AppleWorks) all the time to help me keep me and my students work organized. I used it to grade papers according to my rubrics. I used it to assess oral presentations. I used it to keep track of the French language movies that we had at our school.

After AppleWorks was abandoned, I discovered Bento. Bento was cool because I could sync my databases on my Mac to my iPod touch, allowing me to be more mobile in the classroom while assessing.

After Bento was abandoned, I discovered Tap Forms. I can do everything I had been doing since ClarisWorks, and it does it more reliably and faster. Back in the Bento days, it would take me about an hour to rustle up a form to assess an oral presentation. I can create a form in Tap Forms that surpasses my old Bento forms in about 1/3 the time! Tap Forms gives me more options for fields. It is easily to make formulas in the calculation field. It is easier than Bento for printing out individual records. Forms made with Tap Forms are cleaner, more professional looking. Not only does Tap Forms allow me to sync my database between my Mac and Tap Forms for iOS, but it also allows me to create forms in iOS -- something that not even Bento could do.

No drawbacks what-so-ever ! None !
