"frustrating"
Version: Easy Macro Recorder 4.4
Pros
I got it from giveawayoftheday for free.... so I guess that would be the pro....
Cons
maybe its me, but I record my macro and want to assign a hot key to it... but?? when I press playback it brings up the list of macros to choose from... ALSO.... it does not play back the macros right, missing keystrokes or putting them in the wrong area... strange..
Summary
I am glad I got it for free (giveawayoftheday) I would be demanding my money back.....

"Great, simple but powerful macro tool"
Version: Easy Macro Recorder 3.9
Pros
I found this macro recorder to be the easiest to use with the least amount of bugs for any similar product i have tried. loop function is fantastic as well as the option to record without mouse movements which really speeds things up.
Cons
sometimes would have to record a couple times to get it just right or it seemed to miss a movement but way better than the others.
Summary
the macro edit tool is also easy to use for a novice when it comes to code.

"Could not make it work for me."
Version: Easy Macro Recorder 3.85
Pros
It did not reformat my hard drive?
Cons
No instructions. Confusing pop-up screens. Says no experience needed. But Control + Alt + R does not seem to record. Playback gives me blank forms on Internet Explorer.
Summary
The free version for 15 trial might be a crappier version, but why would I spend money on a program I cant make work at all.

"This program is so terribly written in so many ways"
Version: Easy Macro Recorder 3.81
Pros
Sometimes the program works, which is a bonus. It can easily run commands and succesfully complete tasks
Cons
This product is very badly written. It does not use any of the windows features such as ctrl c and ctrl v which makes tasks so time consuming its not worth the time. The point of not been able to use the programs own features is disaappointing.
Summary
If you have 1000 years u your sleave you should use this program, if not dont use it.

"Literally the best MacroRecorder out there"
Version: Easy Macro Recorder 3.81
Pros
Captures EVERY keystroke with the timing and everything! You can even edit the saved macro to run a bit faster by cutting down the pauses made by human reaction times. This is made even better by being able to increase the overall playback speed!
Cons
Ummmm... I eat too much now because the Easy Macro Recorder does 95% of my mundane work for me!
Summary
I've tried SEVERAL macro programs and for some reason they all decide to think that they know what you want to have done... So they change keystrokes or don't record certain keystrokes at all. It's a one button hotkey on this program to start recording. and One button to stop. You can change them if you want to.
It just records everything exactly how you want it including the Ctrl, Alt, Shift, AND Windows keys!! The best part about this program is the simultaneously pressed keys work flawlessly in this piece of software due to the nature of the structuring of the macro file itself.
The macro editor is key in trying to make the most of your macro. I've never really had any luck with Macros and using the mouse... This one is pretty much the same right out of the box. But if you have to use the mouse and you want to run your macro at high speed, just increase the time that the mousedown is recorded at.
This macro software does not use Key "Strokes" like all of the rest of them. It uses key presses and states. So it records how long each key is pressed down for and when it gets released.
There is definitely no other better macro software out there. I've been using this one for years and it's been perfect! -
"Did not work. When it holds the focus, it would not"
Version: Easy Macro Recorder 3.75
Pros
The price is right, but what good is that when it will not work
Cons
Does not work. I tried every trick I could think of to force it to let me type in what I wanted in the macro. No cigar.
Summary
If it would work, I would use it.

"Not free"
Version: Easy Macro Recorder 3.68
Pros
Nothing, could not use
Cons
I don't know what they're trying to pull, but this is NOT free software. The second after installing it, I tried to use the program to create a macro, and when I opened the file that I had recorded, it said I had to register.

"Works, but big file size for the few functionality"
Version: Easy Macro Recorder 3
Pros
It works. Not self-evident for macro recorders.
Quite easy operability.
Cons
File size too large compared with the the features.
Needs to be be installed.
Very few functions. Many important parameters can't be set. Must be edited by hand which makes it very time-consuming to get a working macro.
The user interface is also quite poor.
