Indispensable utility for Mac OS X - Version: 3.5, 7/7/2009 08:30AM PST

We've been using Keyboard Maestro since the very first version came out in 2001, and this program just keeps getting better and better as time goes by. We can honestly say that a Mac just wouldn't be a Mac without Keyboard Maestro running on it. If you like using your keyboard to control your Mac, Keyboard Maestro is a must-have utility. The technical support is excellent, the program is continually updated with new features, bug fixes, and OS compatibility, and the program is just a sheer delight to use for just about anything that you can think of doing with your keyboard. Keep up the great work, Stairways Software.

An amazing application - Version: 3.5, 4/1/2009 07:21PM PST

Any program that frees up my time is worth a lot and Keyboard Maestro does that in spades. We used it on Journey to the Center of the Earth to control some very labor intensive but completely repetitive and mindnumbingly dull tasks in the creation of dailies DVDs for executives who needed to be able to see any given shot from any given day. KM interfaced with Final Cut Pro in a great way and we made specific use of some of the mouse specific macros to do some fairly tricky work--literally replicating perfectly what an assistant editor would have to do otherwise for thousands of repetitions. I had no worries going home at night with KM running. It was more reliable than several people I could name. :)
