Beanie Genie

Editors' ReviewDownload.com staffJune 7, 2005This application helps you keep track of your Beanie Baby collection, although it lacks some of the features of other collection applications. Beanie Genie has a basic, easy-to-follow interface, though it is muddled with buttons, tabs, and entry fields for cataloging. Beanie Baby enthusiasts can record general information regarding each baby, including its condition, tush tag description, swing tag condition, series, color, birth date, and retirement date, although you can't add graphical images. You'll be able to log the purchase price, catalog value, and sell price if applicable, and sort your list by descriptive characteristics like special series or catalog number. Beanie Genie lets you save and print your logged data, but the trial version is limited to only 10 entries. While it isn't as impressive as other cataloging software, Beanie Baby collectors will appreciate its specific focus.
