For the money this is the best around. It is easy to use, I start with a cookbook, make a chapter in it and then sub the chapter into different parts(i.e. chicken, pork, fish or meat). Coping a recipe is fast. Capture, paste and use the side bar to highlight the different parts of the recipe and save. You can go back in and edit cooking times, ingredients, procedures and photos any time you want. The software uses all type of photo files. A few I have you can only use one type of file. The tutorials are great and so easy. I am one of those people that prints out the whole tutorial so I can go through it before I try things. The help files are great. Oh!!! the money I would have saved. You can add techniques to show how to do what you want and link to the recipe. I decorate cakes and this just makes it easier. You can use the 30 day free trial to see if you like this software. After going through the tutotials I bought it the next day. I am not sorry and hope you give it a try. You will love it.
