"Fills holes in iTunes and has good flexibility."
Version: Floola 2011r3
Pros
When loading mp3 files on any model of an iPod you are not limited in catigory to "music". You can change it to "Audiobook" which has big advantage if you used audiobooks other than those sold by Apple.
Cons
It adds another program on your computer.
Summary
After using it for a while I sent them some money in hopes they will not stop updating it. If your needs are similar to mine you will enjoy using it.

"Erased everything"
Version: Floola 6.1
Pros
None at all.
Cons
Erases all your playlists, music, ratings, etc.
Summary
WARNING - version 6.1 left my ipod without any music showing up. Turning back to iTunes didn't fix it. I'll never use this software again. Everything is gone.
Music now ONLY shows up in Floola. iPod database got corrupted! -
"Piece of garbage"
Version: Floola 5.8
Pros
Another worthless program.
Cons
Does not support iPod Touch or even iPhone! What is its use then???
Summary
Glad this doesn't install. It is a worthless program that does not support iPod Touch or even the iPhone, so I quickly tossed this to the recycle bin. Support Touch and iPhone and maybe I will give this another shot. Until then, it's worthless.

"Very Good iPod Manager"
Version: Floola 5.8
Pros
-Straight-forward interface
-Cross platform! Works on Windows, Mac, and Linux
-Easily converts incompatible audio and video
-Very good iPod managing
-Easily add artwork to your albums
-Completely free, no ads.Cons
Nothing yet.
Summary
Floola is a really great program for managing the songs, albums, videos, and photos on my iPod. Managing songs and stuff is really easy. You just click on "Add" and then drag and drop files from your computer to the Add box. If the song or video is incompatible with your device, you can get an add-on that converts the file for you!
So yea, Floola is really great. I would recommend this software to ANYONE with an iPod or iPhone or iWhatever! -

"New versions are too complex, and not reliable anymore"
Version: Floola 5.3.1
Pros
one of the first ipod manager
Cons
too complex, not stable / reliable anymore
Summary
Floola made me lost all the content of my ipod (1 star is even too much regarding what I lost).
I also got the error ''artwork load error: iTunes length (song mhsd). I had to format it, and lost all my song.
Floola is trying to offer more and more functions, and this is adding more and more bugs to the application.
My advice, forget Floola, and use a more simple app like CopyTrans Manager. -
"When it works, its awesome"
Version: Floola 5.3
Pros
Load music to and from your iPod from any computer. Load the music on your iPod onto anyone else's computer. Easily convert and load videos. ID3 tag editing is powerful and very convenient.
Cons
Doesn't work with iTune 9 at all. Very difficult to get to work once you've had iTunes 9 installed. Sometimes it doesn't load files correctly.
Summary
Still a work in progress, but worth using if you can get it to work.

Doesn't work with my iPod. So it's useless to me
