Very clear
"I was just thrilled by how easy it is to use this serious program - everything is very clear from the very first moments of using. I discovered All My Books not so long ago, but love it beyond any measure!!! Great interface! Nice templates, so frequent updates - developers' constant work over the project is obvious! Awesome possum! Thanks so much!!!"

Booknizer Alternative for Windows
Booknizer is the book organizer from the same family as Movienizer and Medianizer (Nizer / ManiacTools). It catalogs paper books, ebooks and audiobooks, downloads covers and author bios, and can copy files to an e-reader. Medianizer is the all-in-one sibling that also handles movies, music and games. The whole Nizer line is an abandoned project: no real development, no fixes for modern Windows, support is gone.
If you already keep a Booknizer or Medianizer book collection and want a catalog that is still actively developed, All My Books is the direct replacement. Import is built in: Database → Import collection from → Booknizer / Medianizer... The source program does not need to be installed — you only need the database file.

Why switch from Booknizer to All My Books?
-
Direct Booknizer / Medianizer import
Already have a collection? All My Books reads the Booknizer (and Medianizer book) database, including titles, covers and notes. Use Database → Import collection from → Booknizer / Medianizer...
-
Regular updates and support
The same story as Movienizer vs All My Movies: Booknizer, Medianizer and Movienizer are abandoned. The installers may still run, but there are no updates and no one behind the product. All My Books gets regular Windows compatibility fixes, new lookup sources and an active help desk.
-
A catalog, not a file copier
Scan ebook folders, keep files where they are, open them in the reader you already use. Paper books sit in the same database with ISBN lookup and loan tracking.
How to import Booknizer into All My Books
Option A — direct import (recommended if you still have the Booknizer or Medianizer database file):
- Install and start All My Books.
- Open Database → Import collection from → Booknizer / Medianizer... and select the database file. Booknizer does not need to be installed.
- Wait until the conversion finishes, then spot-check covers, series and custom fields.
Option B — Excel / CSV (if you no longer have the database file):
- Export the collection from Booknizer to Excel or CSV if the program still offers that.
- In All My Books use Tools → Import from → Import from MS Excel... (or plain text / CSV).
- Map title, author and ISBN at minimum; then refresh details online for missing covers.
