Customer Reviews

We have all had to get used to one sided licences which allow software providers to avoid any responsibility for anything. But the licence for Paintshop Pro is the worst I have ever seen - it's so bad that no sensible user would agree to it. Corel requires you to hand over control of your computer and your personal information to them.
Corel is entitled to:
- install updates without giving the user any notice
- define some updates as 'mandatory updates' and revoke the user's licence if they are not installed within ten days
- monitor how you use the product and to share that information with anybody they feel like
- share your personal information with anybody they feel like
- access, utilise and alter the "existing functionality" of your computer, including changing any default settings they choose to.
I have used Paintshop Pro through five or six versions and been very happy with it. But these conditions go far beyond what is acceptable or necessary. I am not going to install this version. Nobody who values their personal privacy and wants to stay in control of their computer should do so either.

I also bought this software believing it would be a good investment as the price was reduced and was an upgrade to XL which I have used for a long time. What a mistake, wish I had read the reviews first because everything I have read after the effect has happened to me. What I don't understand is why Amazon is still selling it and have not pulled the plug on it until Corel have done something to resolve these issues. I have lost confidence in both. All I can say to anyone wanting to buy this product is to wait until they know for sure all the problems have been resolved.
