The program is fundamentally sound, intelligently designed. The price of yearly upgrades is moderate ($60-70) but the availability is poor, i.e. they are always late with current versions, the versions they send are not always functional, and although they try hard, the backroom shipping and accounting operations are haphazard. In other words buy at your own risk.
