Software Reviews of Apple iWork '08 [OLD VERSION]
Customer Review: Best price anywhere
Summary: 5 Stars
Arrived early, brand new, I installed it that day and it is working perfectly. I give this seller my highest rating.Customer Review: My favorite office software for Mac.
Summary: 5 Stars
First, please excuse me while I rant: To those who criticize iWork because it doesn't mimic their favorite Microsoft Office feature, I have to ask "Just what did you expect?" Look. If you want Office, then _buy_ Office, and don't blame Apple because you chose the wrong tool for the job.
I'm not one of those Microsoft-bashers. I use Office on a Windows PC at work without complaint, but for my own use on my own Mac I prefer iWork to Office:mac 2008. Subjectively, it's more streamlined and user-friendly, and its compliment of applications and features better suits my purposes. Objectively, it's faster, more trouble-free, much better integrated with OS X and iLife, and it costs less.
There is usually nothing particularly exciting about "productivity software." You mostly use it when you have to, not because you want to. But, iWork seems to be a little bit of a departure from the usual, and - at the risk of sounding geeky - it can be fun to use.
Customer Review: The Little Program that Could
Summary: 5 Stars
It seems like a basic word program, but it has so many frills, bells and whistles, that I still haven't found them all yet, but I'm always amazed at what it can do. Customer Review: iWork
Summary: 5 Stars
Going from PC to Apple is not as easy as you would think. But the Operating System and the features are out of this world. I'm glad I switched and am learning to utilize my commputer and software. It is good with compatability issues for those who have to move back and forth between the PC and Apple environments. Customer Review: Best publishing program if you have an older Mac
Summary: 4 Stars
Bought the new Microsoft Word for Mac to do a monthly volunteer newsletter and found that it runs like molasses on a G4 Powerbook. So, I bought IWork for the 'Pages' program. This program is easy to use and easy to learn. It's very much like the old PageMaker for Macs. Converts easily to PDF for sharing. Would have given it 5 starts, but I think that anything can be improved. Otherwise, there would never be new versions. Only negative - I would have liked to buy 'Pages' as a stand alone application. I have no need for the other apps.
