1 out of 5 stars Not what I thought   May 21, 2007

Unless I still have to figure it out, I have found this product to not be as user friendly and helpful as I had hoped.

It was very difficult to figure this product out! Once figured out it is helpful. However, the reference page will not print with your paper. The software help page state that they are working on a patch to fix it.


5 out of 5 stars Worked great with me!!   April 24, 2007

I don't know why some reviewers felt this software didn't do a good job but it did great with me!!

I had to write a paper and used this software and I was doing last minute work. The software helped me a great deal and saved me from screwing up. It was so easy to learn. I kept writing and followed the instructions and after I finished and did a run up, it turned out perfect!!

I would definitely recommend it since it is so easy to learn and makes writing paper much more easier!!



1 out of 5 stars Helper? Give me a break!   February 11, 2007

I am in a doctorial program and thought this would be a great tool. After spending several hours entering data, everything looked great until it came time to stop working for the night. I received an error message and my data was lost.

Over the next few days the ITT guys at the college where I work were unable to make the program work. I emailed the publisher (using their help desk) that was no help. I called and a support tech sent me to a web site to download a patch - didn't work! I called back and the tech help said, "sorry, I don't know what to tell you."

I just learned how to do citations the old fashion way; just didn't feel like wasting more work time accomplishing nothing.

That being said, I would give the printed manual (APA Style) four stars. It is very helpful. However, to receive five stars they need to simplify it some.



1 out of 5 stars do not buy!   January 26, 2007

This software is a piece of junk! It is cumbersome and it ate an entire paper of mine....I never could find it through Word or the APA style after accessing it multiple times without difficulty. The citations help did not match the APA handbook. Do not buy this product...it will only cost you time!
