Hi Team,
What is your thought about having a module for storing the software serial keys in the EssentialPIM database?
Software Keys Depot

I use EPIM portable- Serial keys are stored in EssentialPIM.ini.
What would be the advantage having it in each single database?

EPIM isn't secure nor convenient enough for actual passwords* IMO, but it's password module is perfect for software keys.
I use the password module for software keys and license info, and it works great. So I wouldn't think there's much need for module build around them specifically. You can even quickly add new fields in the password module to store various types of keys in an organized way already. especially since a lot of software keys now require login details, I think a software key module would wind up more or less being a copy of the password module with just a couple extra default fields and that's about it.
Now what could be cool, is a template data module. Basically if you had a module where you could build your own templates that acted like the add password / add contact system since than you could quickly and easily create your own module for special needs like a media catalog, software database, code snip-it repository..etc. anything where you needed a static set of fields for data sorting/filtering.
*Not open source, not source available, zero 3rd party auditing, and the way it handles email security makes me seriously question it's commitment to any other security. It's great software, but I wouldn't trust it with sensitive information that I wouldn't be willing to just put in a text file on my desktop.

Re: Software Keys Depot
Good discussion. I think I will proceed with importing the serial keys on to Password depot. Thanks, everyone.
