Beta b1

Feedback Type:  Review

Contributed by: rodentking Saturday, January 10 2009 @ 08:37 AM PST

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Over One Year

Recommend Product: NO

I gave a shot at using the beta, with no joy. I tried for about an hour to use it and could not figure it out.

Hopefully the real thing will come with some simple instructions. We have been using Retrospect for many years. This interface is so different and non-intuitive that I cannot figure out how to use it. Perhaps it is because I am old. On the other hand, I have had no problems using the previous versions. I will be happy to upgrade, the additional features seem great. Wish I had some idea what to do with it. I feel much like a pig looking at a computer. It is obviously something and I wonder what it is.

I loved your review... just had to say that. I think we all feel that way from time to time.
