Mindjet MindManager 8.0.193 (Mac OS X)
Don't waste your time with this Win-centric garbage, it rarely gets updated and always lags a version or so behind the Win version. Mostly the product suffers from the Win-centric paradigm that is inherent to the developers. Mindjet MindManager: Fail. [alert admin]

SneakPeek Pro 1.3 (Mac OS X)
Works Great! although shouldn't Adobe have included this by now? 
Has worked wonderfully!
Why I don’t want to rain on the parade of this product’s developer, a Quick Look plug-in for Adobe files should have become a standard feature of the Creative Suite by now. The negligence of fundamental features like a Quick Look plug-in along with a handful of quality Automator actions is further evidence of Adobe’s increasing ineptitude.
It’s not that I’ve grown exceptionally tired of Adobe’s incessant decline, it’s that I’ve grown exceptionally tired of Adobe’s incessant decline without the availability of any professional quality alternatives.
While it’s readily apparent that many artists have failed to demand or even require state of the art functionality from their core visual design tools, I’m surprised that there are still no caliber software development companies seizing the huge opportunity that has been created by Adobe’s lazy efforts, efforts which have led to the current line of subpar solutions.
Adobe’s commitment to the substandard quality of cross-platform tools is in Adobe’s best interest alone, not the user’s. Adobe’s approach to Cross-Platform development hampers product stability and functionality, in other words the tools can only be as good as the greatest common factor amongst all targeted platforms. Needless to say the Windows platform, more often than not, holds everyone else back.
The mere inclusion of the Windows paradigm in the development process has many negative influences on product development, some consciously, most unconsciously. These influences end up subjecting Mac users to insidious hindrances like tired metaphors that do not leverage the optimal methodologies made available by digital technologies and their abilities to aid users in achieving desired results.Another example of Adobe’s self-serving interests is their growing efforts to encroach on user experience. Adobe’s Creative Suite implements their third-rate Flash panels instead of directly leveraging the host UI and all of it’s direct advantages.
Would somebody please seize the opportunity and deliver the highest in quality professional imaging tools for the Mac please? Thanks : )

ClickToFlash 1.5.3b4 (Mac OS X)
THE BEST ADD-ON EVER!!!!!!!!!!!
I hope I'm not understating my experience with Flash when I say that
I HAAAAAAAAATE FLASH WITH EVERY LAST FIBER OF MY BEING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Which in turn is why it's so easy for me to say
THIS IS THE BEST ADD-ON EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Let's all raise our glasses to Adobe's Crash Player, and for that matter ALLLLL Adobe Crash Technology dying one shallow breath at a time. Three cheers to HTML5 and RTP/RTSP and the pursuit of one day computing on an Adobe-free Mac!

Clips 1.5 (Mac OS X)
This app sucks! You can't even create a clip in the application, you actually have to copy or cut it from somewhere else! And editing a clip? NOPE! Sorry! This app is for the birds! [alert admin]

Flux 2.30 (Mac OS X)
Looks great, but does it work well?
I have no idea whether or not this thing is useful in any way whatsoever since I haven't had time to test drive it yet. All that I can say upfront is that on the surface it sounds like a great idea, and from opening it up and tooling around just a little bit I see that it looks very cool! That said, if it can't make anything easier or fails to respect web standards and so forth it will be just another worthless piece of eye candy. To be continued : ) [alert admin]

Smart Scroll 3.1.3 (Mac OS X)
Parting is such sweet sorrow :(
I love you Smart Scroller. It's sad that you rely on APE for your functionality because Unsanity continually has it's head up it's #$$! and is hardly even finished updating for Mac OS 10.5 much less 10.6. Apparently Unsanity is in a part of the world that cannot aqcuire developer previews of Mac OS versions. Thanks for your stellar user experience up until now! Adieu! [alert admin]

This developer is incredibly neurotic about his software. Instead of evaluating improvement requests he initiates miniature smear campaigns against those who took the time to fill out a submission. In the vein of "there's no such thing as bad press," neither is there such a thing as bad feedback. Even the most derogatory criticism contains the slightest merit that someone cared enough about your product to invest their time in it.

You should really learn to back up all of your work on a daily basis so that it doesn't take you hours to undo errors.

Could someone please tell this guy something about decency?
This is <em>very</em> unprofessional. Why on earth would you expect a customer, be they curmudgeon or otherwise, to develop their own software prior to submitting feedback of any kind? You might want to reconsider the line of work you are in.
