I just switched to an iMac after using PC’s for many years, and VMware’s Fusion has been a huge convenience for me. I have a few Windows applications (Quicken, Outlook for it’s task functionality) for which I can’t find acceptable Mac counterparts. Fusion allows you to run a fully functional Windows instance on the Mac, and it does so seamlessly. I actually run my Windows instance on a separate monitor, giving me access to fully functional Mac and Windows apps from one computer.

The look and feel is 99% the same as the 2015 version. There are (allegedly) some new features, but no clear information on what they are or how to use them. I got nothing tangible from the upgrade.

I have only used Corel Painter with existing photos to apply effects, and it’s fun and feature-laden! There are all kinds of effects, from applying patterns like bricks, to posterization and color manipulation. I’ve barely scratched the surface with Painter 11, but it’s a fun and powerful addition to my photo-editing tool kit.

Doesn’t provide as much protection as you would think. The purchased product provides much more.

Having used Peach Tree from it’s earliest version to it’s later more sophisticated version, and later, Quick Books, I’ve found this software to be favorably comparable. I like the easy directions, the variety of apps available and the simplicity of use. I have a small business and the inventory app lets me know when an item is sold, giving me a report when I want one that tells me what the status of the inventory is among other important reports on sales, returns, etc.

I have used Corel products for years and never find them lacking in updated material. I like the features of this new version and it didn’t take me long to get the hang of the upgraded items. It matches Adobe for greatness and costs much less. My graphic design business requires the tools Corel Draw supplies. It’s a neat package and has great ‘how to’ information. Nothing is simple in the world of graphic design, except this new Suite X8.

The Movie Edit Pro has as many features as other software of a similar type, but the 3D section cannot be output to another device or downloaded to your computer. I’m thinking I’ll have to wait until they update the software to be able to use that. I was very disappointed this didn’t work because it’s a feature Roxio and other software of this type doesn’t provide.

I love the new features on this Pinnacle Studio 18 Plus, however, the instructions leave much to be desired, at least for me. I will continue to work with this software and will update this review when I have tried all the apps. I can tell you now that my slide show to video has improved greatly and the 3D capability gives everything that ‘WOW’ look. I love the speed of updating to Facebook, YouTube and Viemeo.
