NEIL_M  The company seems to have been folded up some time ago - not a word to registered users (I am one, spent $25) Great thanks...

But doing a bit of research on google - the guy behind it, was Mark Davis of Yarmouth, Nova Scotia.

He seems to have started up a new company called Colovo - which make an app called Timepost, http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/24494/timepost

Might be worth dropping him an email

GRYPHONENT  Hmm... hasn’t been updated in a while, doesn’t cover .eu, .de and other domains I would need to check. So, as much as I like it, I got to say “no, but thank you” in its present stage.

JFM  Agree with you. It used to be the best, full of promises - and then the developer stopped to update it. A pity, really!

For the time being, the only acceptable substitute is RAGE Domainer... but there are many TLDs which it does not support, and it is not perfect (when updating multiple domains, it goes on endlessly), so it is not yet the ideal solution.

PEDRO FARDILHA  Sorry,

I forgot 1 thing:

I doesn't update .eu domains, even though the info appears correctly on the "Whois" window

Best regards

PEDRO FARDILHA  Hello.

I'm just trying some domains management apps (and comparing to the "home brew" solution that I use right now".

One thing that i noticed was that every time that I open the "Edit Domain" pane and press "OK" (even without changing a single thing) all the info that was added automatically thru the "Update Domain Information" pane is gone.

Is this supposed to work this way?

It's not a "terrible" thing but I just think is not very practical either.

I do think this app is going the right path, but that "bug" (... ok, maybe not a bug but an "annoyance") and the fact that i cannot add/remove columns on the main list makes it an "almost there" app, but still not what I'm looking for.

Best regards

DON MORRIS  This application would be useful to me, except that the events it adds to iCal do not include an alarm, thus no reminders unless I manually add them. A preference item to set the event defaults would be helpful.

MR TONER  Doh! It's in there! It wasn't even difficult to find. The rating stands, though. I'd like to see editable (and moveable/sortable groups and the ability to add more information (at least notes).

DON MORRIS  You know, maybe I should just go to bed. There's the additional info pane -- just double-click. (In my defense, there is no Help and no menu item or button for Edit.) Mea culpa. For penance, I shall purchase the program.

JFM  Sorry to report - as I have done it on the support forum of the product a few days ago, but no reaction, no comment... - that data can no longer be updated. And I am still on 10.3.9, I have not yet upgraded to Tiger...

This needs seriously to be addressed, since it is a key function for DomainTracker. I hope that the product will soon become a stable one. It has great promises, but still too many problems.

JFM  Significant upgrade, which now makes possible to export to CSV files. Other improvements as well. IMO, at this stage, it can now be considered as the best tool of its kind for the Mac, and the author is obviously willing to continue to improve it. Very useful for anybody - like myself - who needs to manage dozens of domain names.

ANONYMOUS  Downloaded for trial - too many problems to justify $20.

Would like to say it works well - but cannot since the feature I would use most is the "Find Synonyms" in the research section. To have that type of automation is a nice feature. Too bad it does not work - it only lists the word you typed.

JFM  Release 2.1.2 seems to have solved the date problems which I had mentioned in a previous comment. Glad to see how fast the developer has been in dealing with that problem! I am confident that this application will become the standard one for domain name management on the Mac.

ANONYMOUS  Very nicely done. Simple, straightforward, fills a need for those of us who manage domains.

I'll buy it right away-- as soon as there's the ability to import a comma or tab-delimited file with domain info.

For now, it's a spreadsheet.

TOM SAWYER  This is a nice app, but why don't *any* of these programs have the ability to import a comma-delineated list?

JFM  Many improvements indeed, it is on the right track, but still some bugs, be careful before entering a long list: an attempt to enter manually a date for a domain name with a extension (.name) not recognized by DomainTracker resulted in my 30 already entered domain names switching all simultaneously to January, and now frozen to January without any possibility to modify the month, even when reffreshing each of them individually. Even a re-install didn't solve the problem.

I have no doubt that the developper will look into the problem and hopefully solve it, but do some testing before entering too many domain names. (My problem may be related to the fact that I don't use English, and this involves some complex problems fore refreshing dates in Domain Trakcer.)

TIMSTRINGER  I have been using DomainTracker 2.0 for several months and it has become an indespensible tool for keeping track of my customer's domain names. The application is very clean and well thought-out and is a text-book example of a Macintosh application both in terms of form and function.

I just spent some time putting DomainTracker 2.1 through its paces and am happy to report that the best is now even better. This new version offers password protection for the domain database, the ability to automatically refresh domain information from the WhoIs database and extra fields for storing FTP account names and passwords.

JFM  Nice app, and indeed the automatic download of domain details is great.

I do not intend to use it for domains I would like to buy, but for keeping track of the domains which I own (more than 80). For that reason, the only feature which is badly missing and which I very much need is the possibility to refresh expiration dates upon request (not yet included). And the print function is not yet working properly.

I assume all this will be solved with the next release - for this reason, I give a four star rating for the features. Once everything is fixed/implemented, it will deserve a five star rating.
