"Excelent multi-purpose alarm clock"
Version: Alarm Clock Pro 9.3.8
Pros
Doesn't require the app to be running or started at login to play alarms. Good iTunes integration including fade-in
Cons
No backup alarm option should iTunes fail, such as if iTunes has a dialog box open.
Summary
I wanted an alarm clock that a) didn't have to be kept open to sound the alarm, b) used iTunes playlists (rather than just single tracks or whatever) as alarms, and c) could fade-in the music gradually to avoid wakeup shock. This software fulfilled that purpose admirably, and while not the cheapest software out there, it's not all that expensive either considering all it can do.

"Some elementry alerts were not easily setable."
Version: Alarm Clock Pro 9.3.4
Pros
Interface seemed nice
Cons
Simple things were not obviously easy to do
Summary
It is an OK product but simple items were hard to set and there was no way (I could see) for a reminder to retry until dismissed which I also need.

Summary
...fix

Pretty incredible really... They call this a paid upgrade when all they have done is fix 10 bugs and made a modification to the power manager "...as it should have been before." For that, you want $10? That just doesn't seem right. -
