Breathes the fire that Dragon lacks...
For ease of use and set-up, IBM wins hands down. Dragon is a bit more cumbersome for a non-techie type of person. For doctoral student applications, IBM wins hands down. IBM's word training tool is really great to customize your main dictionary area. Dragon doesn't seem to have the same flexibility. I only wish it would have better connection capabilities with handheld digital recorders. Dollar for dollar, IBM can't be beat.

Good for most remote control uses on a LAN
I've used the Timbuktu line for quite a few years now and have had good success overall. I recommend it highly for people who want remote control on local area networks. What truly stands out with this product is that it runs on all Windows computers (95 and above), as well as MacOS computers. Timbuktu 2000 brings some nice features for Windows platform computers. I've seen a few small quirks here and there on Win 2000, but nothing major. Overall, a good product! ... Read more

Installation nightmare
I installed NAS with windows XP and it would not work.
After several e-mails and phone calls to their support desk in India they had me delete all my Norton programs (pc anywhere and Norton Antivirus) and run some patches and delete files and delete items in regedit.
Now I get a 3 different errors when I start my computer, I can't do microsoft windows updates and Antivirus and antispam do not work. The support is very slow to respond and don't seem to know what they are doing.
I will probably have to reformat my machine and start again

A waste of money, time and energy; crazy-making
Worked fine initially. Then it deteriorated. Took forever to enter a posting into Norton Antispam (to designate it as spam). Then inexplicably my e-mail on Outlook Express6 got very buggy. Finally, I started getting duplicates, triplicates and quadruplicates of the same spam with minor variations, endlessly; and Norton Antispam began precedingthe sender information in every incoming e-mail, including my professional listserv e-mails, with "[Norton Antispam]" (as shown here, in brackets). This resulted in my needing to delete the "[Norton Antispam"] when I replied to an e-mail posting. At one point I noticed that my listserv postings (professional group communications) hadvery sharply diminished in number. Ultimately, I found that Norton Antispam had-- apparently for my convenience-- segregated these into theNorton Antispam folder. There I found some 2,000 e-mails, all with "[Norton Antispam"] preceding the senders' addresses. Many of these were my professional listserv messages; others were the usual obnoxious scams and spams for which one purchasesantispam software; however, when I tried to click on the button that tells Norton Antispam that "this is spam," I found it to be greyed out, and NONE OF THE MESSAGES COULD NOWBE DESIGNATED AS SPAM, apparently because they now had been funneled to me THROUGH Norton Antispam, like a gift. (I was, however, given the option to click on the button to indicate that "this is NOT spam.")

The wrestling with bugs in my system went on for hours and days, beginning with my internet service provider, going to Microsoft (where, for a fee, they helped somewhat), and continuing with Norton. Norton's customer support was execrable. On the final day of my efforts to get help, at one point I was on the phone for more than an hour, on hold. Support staff seemed befuddled, clueless, and ready to repeat what another support person had done that was useless, despite my protests. I was prepared to pay the nearly $30 they asked for their "help," but balked when the last technician was ready to charge me an additional nearly $70 because, supposedly, a virus had gotten into my e-mail. I wasn't convinced; very recently Norton Antivirus had scanned my computer and found no viruses. I had to ask to speak to a supervisor because she refused to take "no" for an answer to this billing. Norton's other products have so far worked well for me, incidentally.

Finally, I disabled the Norton Antispam and deleted all messages with the "[Norton Antispam]" imprimatur. This has apparently solved problems for now, and I just "block sender" on the spam.

Slow and Not Very Effective
It takes far too long for the program to block an email that you just received. It is not that accurate. I would not use it if if was free.

Unbelievable That They Even Ship It
I can't even believe Symantec would ship this in the condition it is in. Further, if it is so important to them to have some kind of antispam software in their suite, I can't believe they haven't put lots of resources into fixing it via their live update feature.

Summary of the problems:
It doesn't work... It's not catching spam.

When you select a spam e-mail that it missed and tell it "this is spam" to train it, it is horribly slow... It just took an hour to process the 300 spams I received over the weekend.. This is on a 2.2 GHz machine, and task manager shows that CPU is the bottleneck... 100% CPU utilization for about an hour.

It is not correctly integrated with Outlook. Whenever it processes a message, it triggers Outlook to think it is a virus accessing your address list. The best you can do is to tell Outlook to let it have access for 10 minutes at a time. In other words, if you get more than about 30 spam messages, you actually have to wait around and do a three step process every 10 minutes to get it to keep processing!
NOTE: SpamBully and other products do not do this, so this is NOT an Outlook problem. It is a problem with the way that Norton Antispam talks to Outlook.

In short, a horribly flawed product that should not be shipping until these issues are fixed.

DO NOT Buy This Crappy Software!!
There is a huge bug in this software and it will not work with Outlook.The Anti-Spam toolbar causes Outlook to shut down and an error message pops up.This happens every time you start Outlook for the first time of the day with a new user.The folks at Symantec have known about the bug for well over a year but refuse to fix it.They blame Outlook, but they are the ones who designed this software to (not) work with Outlook.This company obviously does not care about its customers and their problems.Next time I will buy McAfee or something and stay far away from this company. ...

Stitch your photos together to produce an impressive panorama--or a 360-degree virtual reality scene--with Cool 360. Cool 360 uses information about your camera lens to get the best result when it stitches images together; there's a long list of cameras, but if yours isn't included you can fill in the details.

As with many Ulead programs, you don't get menus; instead there's a three-button toolbar across the screen with separate controls for starting a project, adjusting the alignment of the images, and saving the final image.The automatic alignment is pretty good, and you can change the rotation and perspective of individual images and adjust the hue, saturation, brightness, and contrast if the exposure has come out differently on different images. The main drawback is that you can't zoom in on the images to see fine details, but you can get a preview in the viewer.

While working on a panorama may sound a little grand for your vacation snaps, it does mean that you can save your creation as a JPEG and go back later to turn it into a screen saver. Cool 360 can also automatically make a Web page with your image. If you do make a Web page, beware, as Cool 360 doesn't reduce the image in size, it just tells the browser to show it at a smaller size, which means the download takes just as long. If you're making a 360-degree wraparound image, you can export it embedded into a viewer application, or put it on a Web page to use with the browser plug-in.

Cool 360 is a simple program to use, and with good pictures to start with you can get excellent results. --Mary Branscombe ... Read more

Great Software
I have used the trial software and found it to work better than my own Nikon software.It's quick, accurate and easy to use.

Shallow Learning Curve & Great Results
I've used Cool 360 for several years now. It's very easy to use, and, once you get the idea of a minimal overlap in each shot, it gives great results. You have to be aware of parallax, so using a tripod is very helpful. However, once the concept is mastered, you will get great wide agnle or 360 degree panoramic photos. For the price, it is the best out there for the purpose. I would like to see it updated to a full-screen mode and menus, but those are minor. Go for it!

With a Little Effort, Excellent Results
I wasn't expecting much after a bad experience with Ulead's "Face Factory", but this product works well.As a test, I "organized" my work room (a bedroom with a bunch of computers and music gear) so everything was at about the same height.Then I set my 1 megapixel digital camera on a tripod on a small table in the middle of the room.I took 12 shots, rotating the camera to roughly match the hours on a clock.Then loaded the shots into the program and said "Go" (or whatever).It came out very good, pretty seamless, so that in Quicktime, you can mouse around the screen and feel like you're turning inside the room.Plus you can zoom in and out and raise and lower the view (a little).And, of course, the view is continuous, i.e. there is no "end" - you just keep turning and see the room again.Plus you can add Photoshop type filters to any or all of the shots for some interesting effects.

You do have to be careful about the clock hours views, if you don't align the shots like that you can get a discontinuity.

It does what it says
I had this software when it was first released.It worked OK But I lost the CD.It appears that in buying and downloading this latest release, they have cleaned up the code to allow a smoother operation in making 360 degree and extreme wide view splices.Did I say I liked it so much, I bought it twice?

The blending has been very good and so easy that my 8 year old has made 360 degree photos for 2nd grade (while I was at work).

It does what it says and does it very well.What more can you ask?!?

BTW, with the download option, I had it in 10 minutes, instead of waiting for a week to get it in the mail.Good choice for me.

Great for the money
I was taking pictures of property in my area for a relative to view from a long distance. I found this software when I was investigating those virtual tours that some realtors use to showcase their listings. Ulead had a sample on thier site that was pretty good. I downloaded the free trial version and took a about 15 overlapping pictures with my digital camera to create a 360 view of my backyard. I uploaded the pictures into the program and it did everything for me. Using Ulead's viewer I was able to create a 360 virtual tour of my backyard. You can export it to a file with the viewer and email it, put it on a web page or even make a screen saver.This is a pretty cool piece of software for [the price]. ... Just a hint. Your project will turn out a lot better if you use a tripod to take the overlapping pictures. The software will merge things the best it can but if you have a couple of pictures where the camera was at a slightly different angle it will definitely make some rough spots in your project. ...

Very Disapointing
This program is very frustrating and support is even worse. First of all it's huge. It takes around a gigabite of hard drive space to install. The program opens with the default voice (Mike) who sounds robot like and choppy. When trying to choose an optional voice, the program crashes every time. Then it will not open again till I reboot my computer. The manual is one 8 x10 sheet of paper. My Tech Support emails have been completely ignored, and no human phone contact is possible. The troubleshooting website was just as useless. There are better choices.
I have tried a few demo downloads from other Text to Voice programs that all worked very well. I'm sorry I didn't choose one of them vs iSpeak.

buggy
I bought this used so I didn't loose too much. But after discovering it's bugs and spending time to train the speech to say ms-dos and not Missisippi duce, it all came down to trying another software. I've tried this one Windows Me and XP both would same issue with the software staying minimized on the task bar. I was unable restore to maximized position on the screen. Buyer beware.

Stick to the free FAX software that comes with Windows XP
I just uninstalled it after I got it going (after wasting about 8 hours fiddling).

Here are the main reason I could not work with it any more:

(1) Stability: I have Windows XP Service pack 2. And nine times the application just closed with 'could not read memory error'. Twice it just hung for no reason. When it does crash, it does not try to restart the application - so if you leave it running and go away, be prepared to miss a few FAX's as it might not be running when you get back! It is a while since I have seen an application that is as unstable as this and prone to crashes on a stable well built high spec computer. People tolerated cr*ap 10 years ago when it was acceptable to get the odd blue screens of deaths - but not now! I cant tolerate an application that does not close gracefully after a problem, nor give meaningful error messages so if there are any conflicts, it could be resolved.

(2) My modem is on COM port 9. The automatic software would not let me choose this port as it only listed port 1-4. I had to go into a lot of trouble to reconfigure my BIOS beore it will detect my modem.

(3)It had an SMTP setting which is supposed to forward FAXes to email. I could never get this to work, as the 'SMTP Server setup' dialogue does not have any authentication screen so I can type in my username and passwords for my outbound mail server. Cant belive the developer did not think of this - fundemental requirement for any MAPI / SMTP integrated application

(3) user interface is very 90's and not compliant with the new norm. So you have to spend time familiarizing your self - rather than things being intuitive. The skins were very amateurish.

(4) I tried to open my Outlook contacts - but it wont let me as it does not support the password feature in Outlook or MAPI client - again pretty fundamental and shows the application was not thought out. When I did remove the password in my Outlook to make it work, it did sort of work - but sometimes when I accidently select a contact whose FAX number is not correctly formated, the program would lock up.

(5) The features and functions are inferior to what you get in the free Windows Fax service that comes with Windows XP and the OCR features that comes with Office 2003. Why bother? It was a complete waste of my time - and I am so annoyed that I actually felt compelled to write my review about a product for the first time in my life in herehopefully saving the same agony I had to endure during the last 9 hours.

unreliable software, looking for a replacement
I have been using the 4.0 version of this software on a Windows 98 platform for several years, with disappointing results. The fax does not work well when it comes to sending file attachments, sometimes resulting in annoying crashes. Logging the sent or received faxes is a big problem, as the fax viewer cannot open the faxes stored in a default directory that cannot be changed. Very recently I updated my Windows 98 with all the critical updates from Microsoft, and HotFax crashes the computer (very reliably!) every time I try sending a fax. Don't buy this product, find something better.

Appalling experience!
After much research and what I thought was careful planning, I downloaded the software and found it would not work with my computer. To make it work would require a new modem for around $300.00. Tried to contact Smith Micro and they were "on holiday". Unfortunately, the time frame to return product expired while they were "on holiday" and they said it was too bad for me. Terrible customer service and I encourage people to do business with another company entirely.

Hotfax Message Center
We had a hard drive crash, and lost our copy of Quicklink (and I couldn't find the original media anywhere.) I dl'd the demo, then purchased the new HFMC to install over the demo. The disk that Smithmicro sent was physically broken (they ship the CD in a flimsy envelope, no box) and when I asked for help getting my now-expired system up, they wanted me to send the broken one back before replacing (understand they had a credit card record of my original purchase) God forbid that you have any trouble with these guys. Their tech support is non-existant. They have one of the worst voice-mail-hell systems I've ever seen. I was absolutely furious by the time I actually got to speak with a human. And he was just useless.

I'm using this product to support a remote office call-in system and due to the above non-support, I finally had to buy another copy (downloaded this time) to get my remote ops back up. I feel like an extortion victim. I'll never buy from these guys again. Stars: one for product, ZERO for customer support. I am now searching for a replacement.

Great Product
This product will SAVE any small business a thousand or more dollars by using a computer and software rather than purchasing an expensive voice mail system.BRAVO to Smith Micro!
