Rainlendar Lite
  • Freeware
  • Win2000/XP/Vista

qleft  Almost there  qright

Rainlendar Lite version 0.22
  • Interface: 2
  • Features: 4
  • Ease of use: 3
  • Value: 4
  • Overall: 3

I want to push the programmer to take Rainlendar to the next level. There are a number of shortcomings in the user interface, and performance. Rainlendar also crashes periodically when trying to enter new data. It's a pretty good product, but does not have the professional finish I like on something that potentially gets constant use.

Slide Show Pilot
  • Free Trial ($39.00)
  • WinWin (All)

qleft  Best of the lot  qright

Slide Show Pilot version 1.50
  • Interface: 5
  • Features: 5
  • Ease of use: 5
  • Value: 5
  • Overall: 5

For a client, I just reviewed a number of slide show programs, including the Corel product that came with the Dell, the Olympus product that came with the camera, and several from SnapFiles. The others from SnapFiles used their own interfaces - bad idea - but this, while perhaps not the most powerful product (I don't know, I didn't try them all) has all that's necessary for basic slide shows, and creating exports (CD, VCD, etc - a key feature for the client). The big, Big, BIG deal for me is ease of use. If you have some clue using a Windows interface, this is the thing. For pros there's an interesting feature: You can save the slide show to a single executable with an optional expiry date. Great for events, and giving away promos.

LeechFTP
  • Freeware
  • Win98/ME/2000/XP

qleft  What software ought to be  qright

LeechFTP version 1.3.1.207
  • Interface: 5
  • Features: 4
  • Ease of use: 5
  • Value: 5
  • Overall: 5

What the first guy said. I've tried all kinds of FTP clients, including SmartFTP, and I always come back to Leech. It is a simple, effective, and very, very fast Windows FTP client. If the author's listening, crank it up again, please. I think this is, or could be, in the same league as IrfanView.
