I know it's editor has gotten a very good review (dc summary comparing it to Lightroom but negative about interface, which could be the killer blow - against it I mean).-tomos (January 30, 2013, 04:06 PM)
tomos, I suspect I haven't really given ACDSee a fair trial. Two things turned me off at the start. In part because of the enthusiastic reviews here on DC, I decided to take advantage of a special offer. But when I went to buy the program, they wanted more than the price they had advertised. I had to exchange a number of email messages before they agreed to let me pay the price they'd advertised. And then, less than two weeks later, they came out with a new version. I assumed I'd get that version for free, since I had bought the previous version so recently. But the company insisted that I pay for it as an upgrade. After a rather heated exchange of messages (heated on my part), they finally agreed that I was entitled to the new version at no additional cost. These experiences somewhat soured my feelings about the company and, possibly, about the program.
