Negative Positive
Title: Run, don't walk.
Review: In over 20 years of working with commercial software (for 8 years as an editor for a major computer magazine), I have rarely come upon a program as bad as this one. It crashes constantly, it runs slowly, it does not provide error messages to guide you. Prior to installing EMC8, I rarely had problems with Windows XP Pro; now, the system hangs frequently, always when some component of EMC8 is running. The "support" for this product is a joke. In my experience, on-line "chat" is never available. The ticket-based help system takes forever to respond--if they respond at all--and good luck trying to find a phone number to speak to a live person.I have no idea if other programs work better than this one. Before buying EMC8, I read many, many reviews and they all seemed equivocal about pros and cons. I bit the bullet and bought EMC8, a decision that I will regret for a long time.
Is the review positive or negative?
