If you have used PaintShop in the past, you will not be disappointed with this version. It has all of the standard features for picture editing that the product is famous for, plus many more for both the amateur and the professional. My personal needs in photo editing are small (resizing, lighting adjustment, red eye removal, etc.), and Corel does a great job with these basic editing tasks. Since I haven’t used any of the advanced features, I don’t feel qualified to comment on them at this time.

This is great software for the home researcher, and works equally as well if you are highly experienced or just getting stared on your family tree. It was easy to install and easy to use to build my family tree. I have not had the opportunity to use all of the advanced features of the software, but for the basics, it is more than adequate.

I am very pleased with the availability of Office 365 for 1 PC, and I am even happier with the reasonable price for a 1 year license. I purchased this for my granddaughter’s PC, and by this time next year she will be in college and can take advantage of the discount Microsoft offers for the Student edition of this software. We only wanted and needed a license for 1 year and just for 1 PC, so this product satisfied that need perfectly.

Sage got a lot of bad press when they took over PeachTree, and I am not sure all of it was warranted. This Premium Accounting Software has worked really well for us, as we recently expanded our business and needed to do a more accurate and comprehensive accounting of our inventory, accounts receivable and payable, and our asset depreciation. We have been able to do it all with this software, without any major difficulties and a minimum of learning curve.

This is a great software package for anyone just starting their family research or someone who has only basic needs. It does come with a free one month subscription to ancestry.com, and allows you to document your research by creating your own family tree. I had no trouble installing and setting up the software, and am very pleased with the ease of use of the product. All in all, this is a great package for beginners and would also make a great gift, at a very reasonable price.

After loading this software initially, we took the time to do all of the product updates, and, so far, have had no problems using it. We have been able to burn both DVD’s (mostly) and a few CD’s without any problems. Right now, I understand Roxio has Toast 12 Titanium available, with a few new features. However, this version 11 will get you most of the functions you will need at a cheaper price, so if you want to save some money, I would go with Toast 11.
