  Strengths: It allows you to make shortcuts to most everyday computer tasks, making you much more productive in your daily routine. Particularly useful for repetitive tasks.

  Weaknesses: Bit of a learning curve that might scare some people (but download it for the free trial period to learn how to use it, nothing to lose). Another weakness: Not available for the iPad.

  Overall Evaluation: By far the most useful software tool I've ever purchased. I probably use it 200 times a day. When I use my kids' computer in the other room, which doesn't have ActiveWords installed, I feel like I'm in slow motion. Highly, highly, recommend this product.

  Strengths: It's a serious time-saver in every aspect of of my work. I'm so accustomed to using it to shortcut many everyday tasks that I feel almost powerless using a computer that doesn't have it installed.

  Weaknesses: It has a steep learning curve and is intimidating for those not inclined to tinker. I've recommended the program to many people, but few have even tried the program much less use it regularly. You have to be prepared take the time to understand it and benefit from it. The investment is well worth it, but most people don't want to make the investment.

  Overall Evaluation: I would never want to be without this program. Whenever I move to a new computer (which I've done many times since first using AW), it's one of the first programs I install.
