EasyInventory Takes the Chore Out of Building a Home Inventory
New software from Boydevlin Ltd reduces home contents under-insurance by taking the chore out of building an inventory and helps users make an insurance claim should the worst happen.

EasyInventory takes the chore out of building a home inventory
A recent study by insurance giant AXA highlighted that "Britons under-insure their home contents by more than £255 billion, leaving millions struggling to replace their belongings in the event of disaster." Under-insurance can cause serious problems for those who have to make a home insurance claim, as insurance companies may not pay out the full cost to replace lost or damaged items.
Compiling a home inventory not only reduces the chances of under-insurance, but it can take the headache out of tracking belongings and making an insurance claim should the worst happen.
Hampshire based software developer Boydevlin Ltd has produced EasyInventory, a small software application that takes the chore out of building a home inventory.
Boydevlin's director Richard Devlin said:
"Existing home inventory systems we had looked at were cumbersome and lifeless, so we could understand why very few people would want to maintain an inventory. We were very keen to move away from the norm and develop something new.
We wanted to make sure that data entry was as painless as possible, so with EasyInventory there's lots of pointing a clicking rather than manual typing. And we chose to incorporate clickable graphs to really bring the inventory data to life. Users can see at a glance a breakdown of their total contents by Location, Category, Owner, Heir and Condition or they can click to drill down to see more of the detail."
EasyInventory also benefits from its portable nature. Not only can it be run from a USB key but it can be used on other PCs without leaving any trace of activity (no installation is necessary and the file size is very small, at 900kb). Strong encryption keeps the inventory data completely safe and secure at all times.
A free trial version of EasyInventory is available from the Boydevlin website (www.boydevlin.com) where the full software can also be purchased at a cost of £9.99 per end-user licence.
Perhaps uniquely for this type of software, a business licence is also available which is aimed at insurance companies, brokers and aggregators. Under this arrangement, a company can customise and purchase EasyInventory for a one off payment, then distribute a branded version of the software completely free to the visitors to its site.
This results in a win-win for the company: It is able to offer its home insurance customers a free, branded inventory tool, allowing them to get the right level of insurance and helping them make an insurance claim. At the same time, lower levels of under-insurance result in higher levels of income for the company.

A separate business site is also available at http://business.boydevlin.com for promoting EasyInventory business licences to insurance companies, brokers and aggregators.
