Welcome to Bento
Bento® helps you organize your information, providing the
power of a database without complexity.
Bento is an easy-to-use database that manages contacts, tasks, and other information
that is important to you. Because Bento is a database, you can create data
relationships and view your data in more ways than you can in a spreadsheet.
Bento brings your important information together in one place to help you get
organized. You’ll be able to manage your contacts, coordinate events, track projects,
prioritize tasks, and more.
