"Best Bible Software on Any Platform"
Version: Accordance 9.5.3
Pros
Accordance is the most versatile, customizable, powerful, elegant, intuitive, software available for Bible study. The scholarly resources, excellent support, decades on the Mac platform make it the premier choice -- hands down.
Cons
Sometimes pricey.
Summary
I have used every major (and some minor) software options on Mac and PC. This is always my first choice.
-
"Hard to review - the demo is pretty thin."
Version: Accordance 9.2.1
Pros
I have heard great things about this software. Looks like it could be great!
Cons
Demo is too thin to really be able to test.
-
"Excellent product with great technical support."
Version: Accordance 9.1.1
Pros
Amazing amount of biblical information.
Cons
Somewhat steep learning curve, but not unusual for a powerful application.
-
"Accordance has everything you need."
Version: Accordance 9.1
Pros
Great basic product. All kinds of add-on modules; many Bible versions; commentaries; dictionaries; maps; timelines. Greek and Hebrew. Everything is hyperlinked so you can quickly find everything about any passage. Great support. Free seminars.
Cons
It is expensive. If you buy several add-ons you can spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars. But the basic package is worth the money. I've added modules bit by bit over the years.
Summary
An incredibly rich set of Bible study tools, all very well integrated. Each person can pick just the modules they need for their particular purposes. I love the ease with which I can customize the user interface. The instructional videos, which are free, are very helpful.

"excellent MAC product!"
Version: Accordance 9.0.7
Pros
love the speed and accessibility.
Cons
would like better "wiget" function
Summary
Great to have way to research and study the bible at my fingertips. Updated regularly and efficiently. Keep up the good work! Thanks for a great product.
-
"great searching and functionality"
Version: Accordance 9.0.2
Pros
The ability to search many resources at once, the ability to tie running studies together and call up maps, timelines and additional resources as needed. I LOVE the Use Notes and other User developed resources which are not difficult to create.
Cons
I would love it if the creation tools for user tool and notes were HTML. Some aspects of the program work very differently than the usual GUI in other programs, but this is not odd in Mac software. Since I use both Mac and PC, I am used to this,
Summary
For the efficiency and the price, and the EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE, you really should try Accordance. I also owed a previous version of the popular PC software Logos Library, and they are quite similar in some ways. However, the Accordance customer service and the very excellent features and the responsiveness to user requests really put Accordance over the top!

"An Amazing Program!"
Version: Accordance 9.0.2
Pros
It is everything your could want or need in a bible program for Mac.
Cons
Not one con or problem at all.
Summary
Get it!
-
"Best version yet of Accordance software for Mac."
Version: Accordance 9.0.2
Pros
Intuitive, with the interface smooth, and the ability to handle a lot of resources on the screen at once. Customer support is super. Problem that I caused was patiently worked through with me on Skype! Maybe ahead of Logos/Mac in functionality.
Cons
Still short of Logos in the # of resources. Not much else to not like.

"Great Bible Study Software"
Version: Accordance 9.0.2
Pros
Strong focus on the biblical text. Excellent support.
Cons
Some modules are rather expensive.
Summary
I have used Accordance for almost two years now and have found it to be a tremendous tool for studying the Bible. The company has a strong record of support and an extremely courteous staff. A little pricey, but definitely worth the money.

"Speed, easy of use, functionality, and features"
Version: Accordance 9.0.2
Pros
I've used Accordance for a long time and every version gets better and better. This version is no exception, with the overhauled user interface, a speed increase.
Cons
when I can think of one I will let you know, I know the iphone app is coming so it's getting harder to find a cons.
Summary
This product has some of the best features out there if you really want to dig into the richness of scripture then this is the application for you. Either on a Mac or a PC (with emulation software), this software is worth every penny. The training, online users groups, and users forums all help people to learn how to use it to the fullest.
