BR Perfect Moment ReviewBeta Software, Poor Developer Support, Hard to Use - Version: 1.0, 10/5/2004 05:32AM PST

marmaladewanker
Occassionally, you'll run into a piece of software that performs as advertised and works without crashing. This is not one of those cases.

The premise behind providing iMovie users with a more robust titling system to address a current iMovie shortfall is prescient. The reality, however, is that BR Perfect Moment is unstable, hard to use, and has poor developer support. In short, you could call BR Perfect Moment the product "...that almost was."

I've found BR Perfect Moment unstable and have witnessed it cause iMovie to crash to the Finder on dozens of occassions. Contact with the author has provided useless solutions like "...try re-installing the software" which did nothing--other than waste my time. I've waited for updates to this software and again, nothing to report.

I'm very supportive of independent software developers so it pains me to pan this product. But pan, I shall. This is Beta software, at best, and that combined with an unresponsive author makes this a terrible choice for iMovie titling. To be fair, I will continue to use this product for iMovie knowing that re-installation of the software every few hours will be part of the necessary work on my project. When BR Perfect Moment works, it works well, so that's a good thing.

I wouldn't hesitate to check back on this product in a year or two's time. Maybe the author will have fixed the program's glaring problems and decided that customers really are important to his business.
