Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Just not worth it
Review: I was disappointed with this product--thankfully I didn't pay much for it. I had difficulty importing files from other word processors, and it locked up on me several times. Seems to me a lot of features are missing that are available in other word processors, too. Anyways, I uninstalled it and bought a Microsoft product. The incompatibilty issues of WordPerfect Family Pack were just too bothersome to deal with.

I can't recommend this to anyone (unless you need a word processor to design birthday banners).

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A terrific alternative to microsoft.
Review: Personally, I dislike thinking that I absolutely must buy only Microsoft products just because they dominate the market. Frankly, I don't like feeling like a sheep and so I avoid Microsoft products whenever a viable alternative is available. Corel's WordPerfect Family Pack 4 presents a very viable alternative at a quite reasonable price. I've been a fan of the various versions of WordPerfect for more than a decade and it's still my word processor of choice -- and would be even if I weren't rebelling against the dominance of Microsoft. If you can cope with using something good that isn't what virtually everyone else uses, I think you'll like this product -- and save some money as well.

Summary: Excellent Value on SUPER Software Bundle!
Review: The Corel WordPerfect Family Pack is super value for anyone not needing a full professional office software suite (such as WordPerfect Office Professional or MS Office). The WordPerfect 10 wordprocessor is easy for the the beginner -- with the "Perfect Expert" to help and prompt you to your completion. Yet, it's fully featured for the advanced user. Included is Dragon NaturallySpeaking for WordPerfect, a utility that you train to your voice so that you can talk and it will type!! Also included is the Quattro Pro 10 (spreadsheet program), Avery DesignPro (similar to PrintShop), online Encyclopedia Brittanica, and McAfee VirusScan (virus checker).

It's a deal super deal for a super software bundle!

Summary: Won't initialize
Review: The program appeared to install correctly but when I try to access it the Word Perfect Logo comes up with no serial number listed, then an error box that it cannot initialize. The serial number was entered and accepted during installation. I spent an hour, at my expense(no 800 number) with Corel with no resolution. So now I have a program that is of no use to me.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: FamilyPackFun
Review: This Family Pack4 arrived including all pieces and parts
as described. Installation was easy and the variety of programs is creative and well worth the purchase...It's a super affordable addition to our computer software.

Summary: Not the full version of WP 10!
Review: This package states that it comes with WordPerfect 10 and nowhere does it say that it is anything but the FULL version. But it is NOT! After installing, I was astounded to learn that there is NO search function (Quickfinder)! I don't consider searching files to be some "full featured professional" function that can just be dropped from a "home" version-- it's pretty basic stuff. How Corel can just drop it is beyond me. Oh sure, it may be some third-party software that would have additional licensing fees, but give me a break! What good is a word processor without the ability to search its own files?!?! Shame on COREL!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I agree with David Ferguson
Review: Word Perfect Family Pack 4 is a great combination of programs. If you do not need the advanced features of a full version of Word Perfect, this one works great (also works with XP Home Edition). The drawback for me is that I need to open documents that were created in more programs than this version allows.

WP9 will open most documents (all I have tried) and works well on ME, but the spell checker (and other things) hangs up on XP Home Edition. (I have heard there are problems with the full version of WP10.) Avery Design Pro is a great program!
