Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The ease and simplicity of this product is amazing. You follow the prompts and if data entered is not correct, delete it and re-enter. Data entered can be saved on a flash drive.

Cons

  • I often use the program at night and if I need tech support I must wait until next day business for assistance. That is not really a ‘con’ but it is closest to a ‘con’.
