Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great program, nice upgrades!
Review: This software is so easy to use and you can get great results in just a few steps with out the guess work. If you do have some time to get creative the options seem to be endless. It can't get any better than this for someone just starting out.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome - Very Easy To Use
Review: This software works great. Very easy to use. Simple one step for enhancing photos. Easy red eye removal. And lots of cool effects and manual enhancing also.......Five Stars *****

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Junk
Review: This software would be overpriced even if it were free. It's not worth the effort of installing it. Photo album capabilities are a joke. Doesn't read Exif data from photos. Very limited editing features. The installation CDs can be easily converted into coasters or Christmas tree ornaments, but aren't useful for much else.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Junk
Review: You better be able to comprehend every thing that is in their user's guide because they have virtually ZERO customer/technical support even though they advertise such. They have a discussions group where you post questions but they don't answer them. They have email they they do not respond to. And if you want to talk to someone on the phone they charge $... per call even if you bought the software.

They also do not give you all that they advertise. For example: on the back of the box it says "Build you own Web page in minutes, complete with graphics, audio, interactive panoramas, animated photos and links." Yet it doesn't even have this capability. I assumed that it contains a web page creator with this statement, but it doesn't. They just mean you're able to create a web page with someone else's webpage builder faster because they have all this cool stuff that you can do with pictures.
On page 7 of the user's guide it says, "Select from dozens of HTML templates for creating your own Web pages." However, when you go to select these templates they aren't there. I've inquired from them where these templates exist and they don't respond.

There is only one thing that makes this software have any redeeming value. Their "stitching". You can create a 360 degree photo using a series of overlapping photos. If you're not looking for that feature (and I was), skip this software. In fact, I will personally avoid anything from ROXIO.
