1.0 out of 5 stars For quality buy 5.0, March 29, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Maximizer 6.0 (CD-ROM)

If Max 6.0 worked as well as previous versions the upgrade would be worth $100's more.... but....

Simple things such as e-mailing multiple contacts at one time are now seemingly impossible, though easily accomplished in earlier versions. Bugs galore and by the way, these are new bugs overwriting tried and true software. But then again, I guess that helps support the $45 charge per tech support call. Note - you cannot e-mail tech support from the Multisoft website... hmmmmm.

I removed 6.0 and reloaded 5.0 so that I can get some work done... still waiting to get my money back.

BTW - I still have my copies of 1.0, 1.2, 3.0, 97is & 5.0

I found this product to be full of bugs and workarounds. In my mind any product that you have to pay for support you should be weary of. I also can't understand why we the end users are forced to make edits to our regisrty to get their product to work. Just my .02

This review is from: Maximizer 6.0 (CD-ROM)

Having used Maximizer for several years, I bought 6.0 because the people at Multiactive sold me on the MaxAction project scheduler. You design a series of tasks and assign the track to a person, then your hotlist tracks which task to do when. Problem is 1.It tracks some tasks without associating them to the person so you know you're supposed to call someone, you just don't know who. 2.Tech support says no one ever uses MaxAction so they know nothing about how it works. 3.There is no documentation in the online help, the website, or the manual on MaxAction and how to use it. But they'll be happy to take your money for support and then tell you they can't help you, but thanks for paying anyway. This was a good product once and I don't know how others are, but I'd look into Act or Goldmine or Telemagic before I'd go anywhere near Maximizer. Even if parts of it work fine, the lack of support and lack of respect for their customers should convince anyone to run...FAST!
