Why choose Botto over CellarTracker
- Calm by design. Wine names in large type, few numbers, nothing competing for attention. Botto feels like a well-kept notebook you want to open after dinner.
- Every bottle has a place. The kitchen fridge, rack B, the top shelf. Open Botto and you know where each bottle is.
- Every bottle gets an ending. Mark it uncorked, given away or broken. Open one and keep your rating, a tasting note, who you drank it with and what you ate.
- A nudge the morning after. Botto reminds you to rate last night’s bottle while you still remember it.
- Made for your phone. Add a bottle by snapping its label. Fix a purchase, look back at every bottle you’ve opened, and take your cellar with you as a file, all from the app. CellarTracker keeps its exports on its desktop website.
- No ads, no shop. Botto sells you nothing but Botto.
- A fraction of the price. Botto is free up to 30 bottles. Botto Pro is USD 29.99 a year for an unlimited cellar, where CellarTracker charges up to USD 500 a year for a large one.
