Today I would like to share my experience in using software programs and sharing the pros and cons of each that I am using. I have two different programs EZcoin2 and Exact Change. 

Last year I began to recognize the need to organize and put a value on my collection as it has grown to the point where I had something of significant value. and I need to get insurance for it. Also I outgrew the first safe and had to buy a second safe so there was a vast amount of material to organize in a meaningful way. If you have different inventory software you use, please share with us your experiences.

The first one I bought was EZcoin2. Their website is: ezstamp.com/software/coin-collecting-software/ 

Prices: You have the option of purchasing Canada only, U.S. only, or both Canada and the U.S. databases. Prices are $54.99 USD for either country and $79.99 USD for both countries. It is available by download.
Pros: Some periodic updates are free.

Relatively easy moving between the two countries
Data entry is easy and it has a good display. It provides a mint state example of each coin and you can enter an image of every coin you inventory as well.
The software generates reports breaking down grades and values and offers a grand total value of the coins that you enter. You can use pre supplied values or enter your own price valuations.

I can't say enough about the quality of customer assistance in getting prompt help via either email or by phone. One issue I had when I was learning the software was by phone call after leaving a voice mail on a weekend, I was surprised and pleased to get a call on a Saturday afternoon by the software developer himself  and helped my with my question. 5 stars for that guy!
Cons:

It does not have other country databases available.
Provided prices may not be accurate due to infrequency of updates.
Bullion prices infrequently updated.
Overall, this is a pretty good program to use, I would recommend it highly to anyone who collects only Canada or U.S., or both countries. I would not recommend it if you want all the countries of the world available in one software package.

The second program is Exact Change. Their website is exactchange.info  It costs $79.95 U,S,D, and is available as a download as well. However, to get the Krause catalogue prices for each grade of coin, you have to purchase up to four additional CD ROMs of Krause catalogue information from $2.99 to $7.99 USD. These come via postal service so it will take awhile to get it when you order. That is a disadvantage from being able to download.
Pros:

Switching countries and data entry is relatively easy, but finding certain coins and their denominations can be a little difficult at times. I give the example of a Mexican 8 reales coin that took awhile to find the appropriate entry place in the database. This is more the exception to the rule, so I generally can say it is pretty easy to use.
Images of each country map and national flag is available for download.
It has a good display of information that is well organized on each coin display.
Cons:
As noted, you have to buy the CD ROMs if you want to be able to determine your foreign coins values.
The biggest complaint I have was the poor customer services I received after attempting to get the first CD ROM I needed. I ordered through the website and paid for expedited delivery. I never got the CD ROM I ordered and eventually had to contest it through my bank to get a refund, which I did. We can say I was not impressed and leave it at that.
I have mixed feelings about recommending this software as highly as I did EZcoin,  Both have useful features and relative ease of use, but Its the completeness of EZcoins, despite its limits at this time with only the U.S and Canada databases available that make it come out on top between the two.. The customer service experience is the deciding factor in my preference of EZcoin.

Are you all using any different software? Please tell us all about them!
