Customer Reviews of ProShow Gold
I Disregarded Other's Warnings I downloaded the free trial version of ProSho Gold version 2.0 and thought it worked great. Then I read the reviews and saw where there were reports of bugs and freezes. I tried the program again and all seemed fine. I thought maybe I wasn't running the same operating system (I am running Win XP) or the others weren't meeting the computer requirements.
However, now that I have purchased the program and am using the more advanced features (zooming, and enlarging etc.) I am having all kinds of problems with freezing. I agree with the person that said if they can get the bugs out it would be a dynamite program! You should probably wait awhile as was suggested in another review.
I am writing the company to send this review and the other two that had problems in the hopes of getting things running right.
I am going to try another plain slide show. Hope it is only the fancy stuff causing the problems.
poor support and buggy
I purchased this product when it was version 1.32 but now since it has gone to verison 2.0 have had nothing but grief. This would be acceptable for sometimes getting software up to par is very tedius.. but when support is no longer available or they don't answer your emails then I would say beware of this company.. sqave your money.
Buy at the risk of your sanity...
I write this review as a warning to those considering this software purchase. I'd advise you to wait at least 6 months or not purchase at all. (this review written 6/2004) Here is why:
The product, when it works is very good. However, they are having serious problems with the most recent version. This most recent version included some very nice features like motion effect, caption effects and others. It seems that they may have rushed this to market without thouroughly testing it. They have released 4 updates or patches to their latest 2.0 software and any of their customers will tell you (like me) that they must absolutely not test what they program. It astonishes me the serious bugs that remain with each patch they release.
All that said, the software is probably the best in its class when it is working properly. However, trust me when I say that the headaches of dealing with system freezes, having to recopy in slides, etc is not worth it at this point.
I'd seriously recommend you give this new version some time or look to other alternatives. They do exist.
Don't just take my word for it. Do some further research. There is a yahoo group as well as other online discussions where you can read the pain some of us are going thru.
