Customer Reviews

Not Much New
I have been using Calendar Creator since version 2. I agree with "Movie lover from HB." There is not much new to this version. I upgraded from version 10 Deluxe, and really there's not much difference. *I don't know what happened to version 11!* I really do like the product and wouldn't be without some version. I was hoping they would finally fix the little bugs with text formatting (doesn't always save settings when changing tabs). And, I was hoping they would make it work more like other XP products, i.e. window scrolling, right click menus, etc. I did not have any problems installing it. The art gallery seems to behave better. I could do without the new welcoming screens (and do!). I haven't noticed any "missing" features. They may be ones I never used.

If you have version 9+, you won't get much from upgrading. When you jump 2 version levels, you expect some new pizazz. But, you won't get it. I did upgrade and I'm not sorry. I agree that the program writers could really make this an awesome product if they just added more features, more in tune with XP.

DON'T BUY THIS SOFTWARE
This software simply refused to install on my computer. I get the now famous _is2.tmp error message and that's it. My system requirements are OK and I tried the clean boot, etc. Same results. This piece of software is the only one with which I've had trouble on this computer and I have installed a lot of software. Encore support simply ignored what I told them in my inquiry and told me to do a clean boot inspite of the fact that I told them I had tried that remedy.

Has Great POTENTIAL, but NEEDS 'TUNING UP'
Calendar Creator has the potential to be the best calendar/scheduling program on the market - BUT Version 9 is probably the best so far. Unfortunately, instead of fixing previous problems and enhancing the product, the creators put out upgrades which just add more graphics and "fluff" WITHOUT concentrating on making the basic program better. And, in some cases, they even REMOVE PREVIOUS functions that were terrific!

They have lost many buyers like me who used to upgrade almost every year. This program really needs to have creators who are serious about realizing the full potential of this program - which would increase their sales (and upgrade buyers) by 100-fold.
