Rating: Summary: Won't load in XP; No support Review: DO NOT BUY THIS. The Burpee 3D app will not run on XP. There is not support.
Rating: Summary: Instant Landscaping (4 CD-ROM) by Topics Entertainment Review: DON'T BUY THIS. Was not able to access windows, doors, porches, decks, etc to change the exterior of the house as the box stated. Went on-line to drag n drop a door and an error came up. Without access to what was available on the so called internet sight you have very little to work with. On-line tech support is no help what so ever! They cut and pasted the help topic from the CD! Horrible service, very limited decisions on what you want to do. Am returning this item to the store with a formal complaint. They should be ashamed of themselves!
Rating: Summary: What a dissapointment Review: Don't waste your money on this software. The product claims are bogus. The Garden Designer does not generate realistic 3-D views as claimed. Placement of features is difficult. Scaling in Instant Landscape is near impossible to work with. The workspace is limited.
Rating: Summary: No backup support for this product Review: I bought this from QVC. Two of the programs would not load running Windows ME. I contacted the manufacturer and there is no support available.
Rating: Summary: waste of money! Review: I bought this product, took it home and it wouldn't even load on my computer Windows XP ...New Laptop Computer...Missing and Corrupt dll ext......! All the other cd's that came with "Instant Landscaping" worked but I didn't want them...I purchased the boxed package to get "Instant Landscaping" not that other stuff!!!
Rating: Summary: Marcus Review: I found only the Gardener's Journal worth anything in this package.I went Marco Software's website and found that the instant landscaping version is really old, so I upgraded there and the new professional edition is just want I need to maintain notes on the several gardens I maintain.
Rating: Summary: Do NOT waste your time Review: Outdated software that doesn't even operate correctly half the time on current Windows operating systems. I tried to contact the publishers and was told that the software isn't even being supported anymore and that I should return it to wherever I bought it...they didn't even try to help me, just told me to return the software! Not worth the money whatsoever.
Rating: Summary: Worked for me.... Review: There are so many negative reviews. But I have a different
experience.
Software worked the first time I installed. (Yes, the instant landscaping).
It seems to be a good software for someone who has gardening as a hobby.
I could take digital pictures of my backyard, import it into the application and see how it looks with different plants.
I could also get the details of the plants so that I could shop for the plants.
Overall, felt good about the software - for a beginner who wants to take gardening as a hobby. I am still to use all the features.
Rating: Summary: Worst program I've ever bought Review: This is suppose to be a new program & it's suppose to be xp compatiable, but the programs are so old, that even the links inside the program are no longer active.
Rating: Summary: Just not worth the money Review: This software comes as 4 seperate CD's - all are completely unrelated to each other. The gardeners journal is just awful and almost DOS like. Burpee should be ashamed, their web site is so good and the 3D Garden Designer is difficult to use at best. Instant Landscaping is worthless without a photo of your own. I wanted to plan my driveway turnaround on paper - should be easy. There were no trellis's and everytime I tried to view a plant selection, the same plant shows over and over. Don't waste your money.
