I just use a spreadsheet. And not in any complex way. Just replicating what I did with pen and paper. A simple grid and various ways of checking off the numbers I have. Usually a capital H if the card is nice, lowercase if it's worn. The handful of graded cards I put the grade in the box.
This does break down sometimes for more modern sets with lots of varieties etc.
What I like is that it's simple, and I don't lose the checkoff sheet like I did with written ones.
What I don't like is that I can't track variations well, and don't have player names. So I can list the cards I'm missing, but don't know if they're commons or HOF, or rookies.
Older stuff like T206 etc I do use the names and it's larger, but a lot better.
(I "borrowed" the T206 superset spreadsheet and removed some of the info to get my grid. Too much typing otherwise)
