CLZ Books is the best of several I tried. I have a huge project of entering 60 boxes of books and then offering them for sale. Exporting data to a format I can share with buyers is well done.

I had used Delicious Library back in the day but this blows that completely away. The functionality is great and the appearance is uncluttered but complete. Very easy to use and responsive developers!
I paid for a lifetime subscription quite a while ago. Anytime I open the app, all of my books are gone. It was a lot of work to scan the amount of books I have. Don't waste your money.
It turns out my account was never created/activated despite my subscription. Tech Support said "show us thw subscription". I sent that and NEVER HEARD FROM THEM AGAIN. So I can't use the app despite paying for it.
This is such an essential app for anyone with an extensive library or for those who like to keep their collection organized and accessible. Also a great tool to keep a record of the books you own in the event of a worst case scenario. Easy to use and extensive with a lot of features. Love it!
I installed this app a week ago and have already entered hundreds of books. This product is easy to learn and easy to use. It is just what you need to track your books. The developer has already contacted me in case I had questions. An amazing product and company.
I'm quite impressed with CLZ books. It is well thought out and easy to use. Having entered over a thousand books thus far, the ISBN and author/title searches generally work very well. Data can be simply edited as needed. The ability to search and add tags to books is very handy. The cloud syncing makes it easy to move between an Android phone and an iPad. I've tried several times to organize our books with other S/W, but this is the best I've used.
This system has been a very strong tool in eliminating my purchasing multiple copies of the same book while simultaneously providing me with a listing of books I have read. This provides a synopsis of the book to refresh my memory on the book and in some cases reminds me of the pleasure the book provided or why I rated it so poorly. I enjoyed the application so much I have the application for movies and my son has the application for comic books. Very reasonable price and delivers everything it promises.
For years, I have wished there was a way to inventory my book collection so I would always know what I had at home. Going to book stores and trying to remember if I had that title sitting on my shelf at home was a total first world problem, but one I faced nonetheless. I even tried keeping tabs on my ever-growing library of books by keeping a list in my Notes app, but that still didn’t scratch that itch I was looking for. Then one day, I stumbled upon this app, and I’ve never been happier. The ease of use with the built-in scanner, and the ability to edit book details to fit my current editions has been a dream come true. I use the app daily now, and look forward to doing so for years to come. The only bad thing: I’m now reminded of how many I have, and how many I still have to read. Uggh, wish me luck. 😀
This app has saved my wife & me SO much money by keeping us from buying duplicate books that it might as well be free! Simple & easy to use - in fact simpler than ever with the new update! And when I had a minor issue with the Statistics feature, I asked for help and was promptly replied to with clear instructions that fixed my problem. As stated, so happy with this app!
As an avid book collector, knowing what is in your collection is essential and this app does it incredibly well. Don’t hesitate, get the app!
I’ve been with Book Collectors Connect, now CLZ, for many years. Best way to keep a large library of books. I appreciate the ease of use program and the team is readily available whenever you have questions or need help.
Almost perfect but keeps getting better: sounds impossible but it's true. The app is dependable and flexible. It works well whether you choose to capture every detail of a publication or just the basics. I am not an employee, or a relatiive of anyone in the development crew.
This app is exactly what I was looking for to catalog my books. I found myself buying duplicates, and decided to go in search of an app that would help me keep track of my books. CLZ Books - library organizer does exactly that and more. I keep books in different rooms in my house, I can note where the books are, mark if I have loaned them out and to who, I can rate them and note when I read them and keep personal notes. It is easy to use, and after initially loading my books, I am able to scan new books easily to add them to the collection. Highly recommend if you have a good amount of books you would like to keep track of.
My partner and I have been using CLZ Books to organize our 1,000 plus library since the beginning of November. The upgrade with ISBN character recognition gave us an huge boost just as we were beginning to bog down. The whole app is just wonderfully done. We sent a question to support one evening and had the clear answer the next morning.
I have over 1200 books and have used a number of catalog apps over the years. CLZ Books does the job of keeping track of my library and gets syncing right. Most importantly (speaking as a software developer) they keep improving the app. It’s tough to make a business of niche software products. These folks have apparently figured out how to make a go of it and they keep improving. Kudos to them!
I own several hundred first editions and having the list—with condition and price— at my fingertips is huge as I dig through used bookstores whenever I travel. Plus, I don’t know how many times CLZ Books has stopped me from buying a book I already own.
I have a lot of books, and I tend to buy those in a certain genre: biography, history, adventure tales about the sea and exploration. Then, when I go in a bookstore and see an appealing book, I would wonder if I already had it and in an excess of caution would often buy it. I knew that I had some duplicates, and this app was great for helping me figure out what I already have and shouldn’t purchase, so I figure that it pays for itself! I also love that it lets me note where the books are, so that, if I’m looking for a history of Ireland, I know that it’s in my home office. And scanning the books is super fast and easy! I would give this 10 stars if they were an option! I learned about this app from a bookstore and only wish I’d known about it sooner!
I have used this app for over a decade and it just continues to get better and better. I highly recommend it if you have a library of books to keep track of.
Finding this app at 63 was a blessing. I have an extraordinary library and continue to collect, yet sometimes you find out you already have the book. This app has been helping me keep track of my existing library 📚 and when shopping, I pre-scan the book to ensure I don't own it. Thank you.
I have a lot of books, and I have been looking for a very long time for a great cataloging app. A friend of mine showed me this one and… Yes. This is it. So easy to use, so easy to add books and create collections, add covers, anything you want to do. I love it I love it I love it. Also Customer Service is absolutely terrific.
This is a great program and huge value for money. We have about 1,500 books loaded up and when in a book store it’s so easy to check if already in the collection. The program is constantly being improved and requests for help are answered within hours. Outstanding service.
The interface is easy to use, it has so many fields, they really thought about every little detail, the support team is always nice and willing to help or reply your questions. It’s an amazing way to keep all my books categorized and looking amazing on the web or my phone. One of three apps I actually pay money for so it’s that good. 10/10.
I have a couple thousand books that I have collected over the years. Some are reading copies and others are first editions. This app makes it easy to add/remove books from your collection and to organize them all. Highly recommended
These people really know their business. I got the CLZ Books app for a specific purpose, and it is as if they’d read my mind; I later realized that was because the program could do anything within reason one might want to do. The app is quite intuitive and I haven’t needed needed to consult customer support.
Been a member of the music subscription for several years, and just added the books this past year. Wonderful product interface.
I like this app. It’s simple, but it gets the job done. I love that it allows you to download your list of owned books (in multiple formats) so they can me uploaded to other apps that track reading statistics. There is a subscription option for those who want backup cloud storage too. I had an issue with my cloud account, but when I emailed for support, I was helped immediately. The agent was extremely, kind, helpful, and quick in helping me.
Like hot chocolate on a rainy night🙄
I Have a very old book collection with very old ISBN numbers that aren’t in your data base. So, I have had to search for book titles and manually add the old ISBN #. Searching for the old numbers doesn’t work either. Hopefully, my entries will be added to your DB for future users. Ken
The app crashes when books are being removed during the sinking process
Great software. Fantastic customer service. Almost perfect.
I have used this program for over 4 years now! Works immediately after downloading and networks with the current ISBN database. Responsive customer service is another plus. IMHO it’s the best book cataloguing app out there!
It’s a great app, but the thing that makes it great (the barcode reader) is not working. I can scan one book and then have to fidget with the next book for quite awhile to scan it in. It used to be a seamless process but not anymore.
I’ve been using this app for over a decade, and it keeps me from purchasing duplicates. Not only do I enjoy the book database capability, but I particularly appreciate the customer support. The two times I have needed help, I have received a response within 24 hours. They also update the app on a regular basis, so they are always working to offer an improved product. This is a great app for book collectors.
CLZ Books is my go to app for tracking my book libraries. I rely on it whenever I purchase new books or audiobooks to avoid duplicating purchases. I recommend the app to all my friends. The customer support function is also outstanding. I recently had an issue and contacted customer support for help. They responded quickly and helped solve my issue. Having such customer support makes the app that much better.
The best such app I’ve found and I’ve tried many. The customer service is top notch and responds quickly. The upgrades are regular and useful. The customizations are tremendously helpful. Love this suite of apps!
I was using this app to catalog the 4000 books in my collection. After about 1000 bucks I upgraded to an iPhone 14. It turns out that the camera on the iPhone 14 will not properly scan the barcode. I contacted the developer and they immediately got back to me. They kept me informed of the progress of the upgrade. They have subsequently fixed the problem and the app works fine now. The app itself is particularly useful if you have books published after 1967 - you can just scan the ISBN code. You have to manually enter the name of pre-ISBN books, but usually the database that the app is connected to will have some of the information. You can then incorporate that information into your collection database.
I’ve used CLZ for years and totally depend on it to maintain my over 2,200 book list. Originally I imported my, considerably smaller list, from another book collector app and found that CLZ far surpassed the other app. The many available fields make it easy to track whatever is important to you. Anytime I’ve had a question support has replied to my query quickly. Support is absolutely awesome.
This App is amazing!!! Finally an easy way to list my scores of books!
I have been using the CLZ apps for years to catalog my music, my books and my movies. The apps are easy to use, both in adding new titles and in viewing my collections. It is great to have all this information at my fingertips when I’m out at a record store or looking for a new movie to buy to make sure I don’t already have what I’m looking at. Highly recommended!
This app lets you do it all, great organizational tool. So simple to add books and put in custom terms for your own reference. As important the service is great, any questions they are right back to you with a solution.
This is an excellent way to organize, store and access info about your books. Really recommend it.
The CLZ Book app is the best app available for keeping track of your book collection. I use this app a lot when I go to Barnes & Noble. I can’t always remember if I have already purchased a book, so I open the CLZ Book app and check my collection. It has saved me several times from making duplicate purchases. I look through my collection a lot and it is just a great source of reference!
I love CLZ Books! I have over 1,000 books in the App. It is easy to use. Love that it shows the covers and that you can read a summary on the book to jog your memory later. The “help” feature is awesome I received a quick reply and it was very helpful!
Love this app! I’ve been using it for several years and it just gets better and better. I volunteer at the Friends of the Poway Library Bookstore, and recommend it regularly to patrons. Like it so much I also bought licenses for their Movie App which I also love! Running both on my PC, iPad and Samsung Galaxy Note 8 phone and they sync flawlessly. Updates are quick and easy and support is really impressive. I wish more Apps worked this well and had this level of support!
I have the Music, Comic, Book, Game & Movie app installed on MY device. I use ALL of them regularly to keep a inventory of ALL MY digital & physical media. I’ve been a user since 2012 and was happy when the apps became available on the App Store. Had a issue with one of the apps and Alwin responded immediately. The problem was resolved. Thanks! I recommend any of the CLZ apps to anyone looking to inventory or at least try to keep UP with their “STUFF”
I loved this app. But ever since 2021 this app will not work at all. No ability to reset the app unless you try their email which never responds. Sadly I gave up on this app and wish they would correct everything that is ruining this amazing database
Love this app! Allows me to track all of my books and format. I buy Kindle books then sometimes upgrade to audio.
Sytske got back to me within minutes and it was solved. Whew. I’m an early adopter and had put a lot of work into the entries, mostly manually. Love the program and the support was there.
