Review by RLC

It is buggy. It crashes on Windows 7 SP1, it crashes on Windows 8.1. I have 96 GB of ram, SSD drives, SATA III drives on the Windows 7 box, I have tried it on both drive types and it crashes incessantly. The Windows 8.1 box is a standard 12GB 1TB machine and no luck there either. Having a 64 bit program is sweet, having one that doesn’t work isn’t. I can’t do a proper review because I can’t get it to stay running long enough to do anything on either machine. I have Premier Elements running on both machines as well as Premier Pro with no problems. I give it two stars for the free tracks, myriad presets, and free training…if they get it patched and working it could be a much better rated program. However, for now I don’t have the time to bother with it or Corel’s lackluster support (long time Painter user and former Word Perfect user…so I know their support).
