Installed and registered without problems on a Win 8.1 Pro 64 bit system.

A Russian company with names (photos) and address. The former PicaJet.

We had had the PicaJet software on April 25th, 2013 and the RoboImport 1.2.0.72 from the same company on April 11th, 2013.

Here are the old reviews:

To the license:

This is the so called "basic" version. You can catalogue 25k files in one catalogue. With the "free" version you can add 15k files, the standard version 75k and the "pro" version is unlimited. Updates are free for one year. That's good!

I just checked my photos directory and found some 80k files - so I will surely NOT use this version, but I'll try to give a short test report.

They claim, that their competitor is Adobe Lightroom. Here is page about that :

http://blog.daminion.net/news/daminion-vs-lightroom/

(and you can import your lightroom catalogue)

A modern bright interface for your photos management. Not the dark lightroom style. Fast import and easy handling. One sees the experience from their PicaJet software. A chart for geotagging is automatically shown on the right lower side.

Imports my RAW files without problems. Remember: This is a photo database program. To work with the files, you have to choose external programs (therefor the small file-size)

An excellent photo management tool, restricted to 25k files, but you can define more than one catalog. Catalog2009, Catalog2010, Catalog2011.

For small photo collection surely one of the best (or THE best) systems available, for the bigger collections, you'll have to pay. That's marketing and that' fair.

Version 2.0 has been offered here in last December and I have been using it as my photo cataloguing program since then. It is stable enough for normal usage, never did any damage to my collection.

It is under quite intensive development, manuals and tips tend to be outdated and incomplete, but forum works quite good, the developers usually respond quickly.

The licence with a year of updates is nice, if 25.000 photos per catalogue is enough for you.
