Simply Awesome [Posted on 2008-09-07]
Having used many creative software titles over the past few years, it's rare that I find a program that surprises me the way that WebPlus X2 did. Although I've been a keen digital photographer for a while, I'd always considered web design as something that took too long to do well. I don't have the time to 'hand code' sites in HTML, and other 'easy' products I'd tried always seemed to produce poorly designed and slow to load sites. After trying Serif's PhotoPlus I decided to give their web design product a shot - and boy am I glad I did.

WebPlus seems to have just about anything any web designer could want - a load of good-looking templates, Flash animations, forums, blogs and polls built-in and even Search Engine Optimization and analytics. Best of all though, it genuinely does let anyone create a decent, professional-standard site very quickly. My first site (for our local little league team) took a couple of hours to design and get online, and since then I've been swamped with requests from friends and family to design sites for them...

WebPlus isn't perfect (if you do want to edit code, you can - but it's not that easy), but it's pretty close and I'd recommend it 100% to anyone looking for the best way to create a good-looking website fast.

The Best Design Software I've Ever Used [Posted on 2008-10-03]
This is by far some of the best web design software I have ever used. It is self explanitory, easy to use, and has great design options. I have only been playing around with the software for an hour and I have already developed a basic webpage for my business. You can design you're own from scratch or use one of their design templates, which you can completely edit and customize. I have been playing with their templates and they are really cool. If you want to develop an awesome website with the latest and neatest design features, I highly recommend this software. It isn't often you actually get what you pay for, in this instance you get about 10 times more with this software!

Waste of Money [Posted on 2008-10-09]
Reads like it is finally the product to make it easy and fun to create web sites. Anything but. It is the only software in about 5 years that I wish I hadn't wasted my time and money buying.

Nice! [Posted on 2008-10-22]
Web X2 is a little counter intuitive at first. Then again, isn't any bit of new software? Once you figure it out, it is a breeze to use. People keep telling me how professional my site looks. I have even started to build sites for other businesses. People are asking me to do web development more than my real business! I never expected that. If you want to see my site, go to lucidaudioprod.com. This site uses most of the basic tools in Web X2. My next big adventure will be using the Flash tools. Web X2 builds a great site for a fraction of the cost of other design tools. I am very happy.

It's just OK [Posted on 2008-10-25]
The website templet selection is limited. I ended up using an online hosting website templet that was a fraction of the price of this software and more user friendly.
