Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I loved this software. Was my most used application. It seems the company has disappeared. I've read rumors the author died.
  • Nothing. I had an earlier version I had purchased in 2008 that did work, but now this company appears to no longer exist.
  • I have been using Readerware for 12+ years, currently running Release 4.1. It does what I need to track my library items, at least until this past Sunday.
  • Over all it is a good product. I started with the version 3 bundle and later tried version 4. But I am unable to get any response from customer support.

Cons

  • It's gone. There no longer seems to be any entity that is supporting the software.
  • This software cannot be used. BrightSpring Market LLC (doing business as "FastSpring", aka "FSPRG")- the company name that accepts your payment for this upgrade, will happily take your money and send you a message stating that you will get a registration code in as little as an hour ... But you will not. And you will not get your money back. Readerware appears to be out of business, as their website can no longer be found. Attempting to contact Brightspring or Readerware will get you no where.
  • On Sunday Feb 1 I could not use the auto-catalog feature; the software reported it could not get to wherever it goes to look up the book data when I enter the ISBN. When I tried to go to the Readerware website, I got a "we can't find that" message. Anyplace I've spotted that purports to offer RW downloads has a Release number lower than what I'm currently running.
  • I am unable to get the registration codes after paying for the upgrade for the version 4 bundle. I sent two emails but got no response from the company. I am very frustrated and disappointed with Readerware's lack of support. I am unable to use the software without the registration codes.
