Honestly speaking- it sucks - Version: 1.5.3, 8/15/2007 02:01AM PST

cibologs

1) It doesnt allow to access Windows 2003 shares and there is no single word about it in product description in website

2) It doesnt allow to change or add servers for shares unless you are keen to edit .plist files manually

3) Strange approach to trial software- for every action in preference pane there is a popup - if the software is great it doesnt be so annoying- already implemented time limit and runs limit should be more than enought for trial limitations.
