What's great about it: looks like it has a lot of new designs and functionalities
What's not so great: it does not save projects well
The product has a bug and the upgrade version 3.0.5 still did not fix it. When you save a project and then open it up later, it oftentimes loses the front page design. Their customer support is not very good. They do not answer the phone and do not timely respond to E-mails. They did finally send me a a replacement disk for another version 23.0, I believe. I have not had a chance to compare the features yet.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Nothing
What's not so great: Everything
This is the worst greeting card program I have ever used. Very limited projects, only very basic operations, does not open previous projects as promised. Waiting for upgrade which promises to correct this, but even with that I will never use this program. Total waste of money, should have listened to previous reviewers. Stuck!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: For me - nothing.
What's not so great: Almost everything.
I have used other versions of Print Shop, primarily #15 [loved it!]. That version had so many more options, and you didn't have to go the internet. This new "improved' and "retooled" software is limited, and in my opinion a hunk of junk! I wasted my money. Too bad you can't give a zero rating.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Nothing
What's not so great: Clunky to use. Limited choices.
Print Shop 3.0 Deluxe is a waste of money. I bought it to help me with a project I was doing at home and it was underwhelming - few templates, clunky to use, need I go on? In the end I just made my own template by using PowerPoint.
All in all, it is a very disappointing product. I think BestBuy would do its store customers a big favor if they would put the latest product ratings on the price tags on their shelves.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I had been using Printship 21 for years, bought Windows 7 and this new Printshop knowing it would be great - WRONG- it crashes every titime you try to use it - Broderbund has really let the users down on this software.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: don't know could not use.
What's not so great: That I cannot get it to work on my new laptop
bought this and then it would not download into my laptop. It kept saying it was done but when I tryed to open it I could not. And of course I could not take it back as it was already opened. So I am stuck with a Print Shop that I can not use. Very unhappy.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: It has potential
What's not so great: You cannot save projects or make them more than basic.
Without a doubt, the worst product and experience. I purchased this software yesterday, have been attempting to create a flyer with exactly 10 pictures for over four hours. When I try to save the project, the program gives me memory errors (even after I uploaded an update through the company website). Then the program randomly closes without saving any changes. Hello, square one, my old friend. My computer is top of the line and only a year old. I am still on hold (20 minutes now) waiting for some assistance.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
