ZOOM REVIEW [Posted on 2007-08-03] This product is so immense (40,000 images)that it takes hours to download, and the program itself moves terrible slow. The description of the product in its ads does not seem to represent what the program can actualy do. Almost unusable....
Fantastic software for $20 [Posted on 2007-12-17] I suspect the negative reviewers of this product must be expecting a $600 professional product for twenty bucks. I was able to download the software and, in a learning process, create 2 different complicated sets of business cards, a greeting card with one of my pictures included, and (this I love) put 6 different pictures on one 8-1/2 x 11 sheet, all in only two hours. And, I never needed to ask for 'help' - the software is very intuitive; very user friendly. Granted, this software is not for the professional. But, for an at-home user wanting to print a few pictures and make a few greeting cards, it's the best $20 you'll ever spent.
p.s. - I'm a Vista user - no problems here.
If your buying because it is vista ready don't!! [Posted on 2008-01-27] I was told by the company to try this it would be similar to print shop for now until version 23 comes out. It is not at all like print shop!! If you are familiar with print shop and like it and want it to work with Vista I would save your money and wait for version 23 to be released!
Even if they were giving it away, I wouldn't have it! [Posted on 2008-03-31] Print Shop Zoom has soured me on anything from Broderbund for life. Not only does my copy of this piece of junk not work (the only button that is functional is "Save," but since it saves in a format that is for all practical purposes unusable, why bother?). The Copy button isn't even clickable, except for one lone instance when my mouse click seemed to depress the button. But alas, it did not copy. And no, Control C doesn't work either. I could find no way to convert the file format to one that is more versatile, and good luck trying to get any help from Broderbund! In fact when I filled out the request for tech support, what I received in reply was downright insulting. They told me to go to the help files, and to their website. As if I had not already done all of that to no avail. I wrote back telling them--again!--the problems I was having were not addressed in either place, and to please give me some technical assistance or I was going to return the software for a refund. Apparently that was fine with them, because I got zilch in the way of assistance. They did say if I had not bought it directly from them, I should request tech support from Encore Software. Well, I did, and what was their response? After the very same song and dance as Broderbund, they then tell me they cannot help me as their tech support is limited to "crashes, error messages and lockups." I guess in their opinion, a program that doesn't work right out of the box doesn't qualify as any of the above?
No more Broderbund for me! They've sunk to a new low! I'm returning the software and I've already instructed them to remove me from their mailing list.
disapointed [Posted on 2008-06-18] this product was advertised to run with vista, but it wouldn't work with my printer. My money was refunded so no real harm was done.
