Reviewer: Johnny Nestor
I recently installed BizzSpec 4.0 and have worked with it for two weeks. I liked the
features in the 3.0 version I had before but used it only occasionally as it was slow
and difficult to navigate. The new version addresses both of these problems. The
ability to customize the menu means that you can remove functions that you don't use
and arrange the icons in a way that works for you. The functions aren't deleted from
the program, so if one is needed at a later date, you can retrieve it. Whether you
customize the main menu or not, the program starts quickly and moves seamlessly
between tasks.
However, I have two minor complaints. First, the length of the setup time stated in the
company's Web page was inaccurate as the process took much longer than that.
Secondly, there are a few older file types that the updated version is unable to read.
Overall, it's a great tool that is now easier to use. If you create a lot of reports and
presentations, I recommend the update.
