CNET Editors' review
If you're planning (or avoiding) life with baby, this software will help you better understand when you're ready to conceive. Ovusoft Fertility Software acts as a daily diary to track temperature, cervical fluid, and other triggers so you can establish monthly patterns to best gauge your fertility. The interface is very straightforward, with "good" times marked brightly in pink; when you click a day, a pop-up box displays information or fields you then can fill in with the appropriate data. A clear and thorough manual helps walk you through the steps of using the program. All records can be password-protected, yet you also have the option of posting charts online to share with family or medical practitioners. Overall, this is a useful program for anyone looking to conceive.
Publisher's Description
From Ovusoft:
Ovusoft can help you reduce the time to conceive by half and can help identify potential fertility issues at an earlier stage. It has been cleared by the FDA as a diagnostic device and is based on the best-selling book Taking Charge of Your Fertility and endorsed by the book's author, Toni Weschler, MPH. Ovusoft identifies when you are fertile, when you have ovulated, and when you are pregnant. It projects future fertility and ovulation to help you plan your pregnancy in advance. It analyzes and charts your fertility using basal temperature, cervical fluid, an ovulation kit, and/or electronic fertility monitor observations. It keeps track of your medications and other personal observations, as well. You may optionally post your charts online to share with your health-care provider, family, or members of your online community.

"great, easy to use"
Version: Ovusoft Fertility Software 1.6
Pros
simple to use interface, easy to understand explanations, support community and books full of information that contribute greatly to the use of the software
Cons
I have honestly not found any cons in my use of the software
Summary
ovusoft offers fantastic support I have known it to successfully create easy to read cycle charts that help considerably when trying to conceive.
-
"Horrible customer service and message board."
Version: Ovusoft Fertility Software 1.6
Pros
Not bad for tracking temps.
Cons
Paper tracking is just as reliable. The support on the message boards was the only reason to have the software as then others could see and interpret your charts. Now the message boards are a disaster. Heavy handed Admin and the owner doesn't care.
Summary
Don't wasted your money. Track on paper, much cheaper and just as effective.

"Product is fair, but message board admin is a mess"
Version: Ovusoft Fertility Software 1.6
Pros
The software is an easy way to chart.
Cons
The software really needs the back up of the message boards on ovusoft.com to really understand it. The administrators have banned valued, helpful, long time members for something as innocuous as helping a new member find info on a different forum.

"Needs to be used in Yahoo and Google Calendar, and needs ongoing statistics to prove itself."
Version: Ovusoft Fertility Software 1.6
Pros
It accurately predicts fertility.
Cons
Ovusoft should partner with Yahoo and Google Calendar to offer it for free. Ovusoft would receive more money by sheer volume of 10 or 100 times more exposure through Yahoo and Google than from their website fees. It would be a win-win-win situation. Think of all the more people who would conviently use it when they check their email every day.
The software also needs an ongoing verifiably scientific study that documents live, by user feedback, for all to see the success and failure statistics of preventing and attaining pregnancy.

"Initially I was skeptical. But this software is AMAZINGLY accurate!"
Version: Ovusoft Fertility Software 1.6
Pros
My cycles are not always regular so I was doubtful about the software's ability to predict ovulation dates. I've been using this for over a year and it is right on target. Absolutely worth every penny to either avoid or plan a pregnancy.
-
"Wonderful software!"
Version: Ovusoft Fertility Software 1.6
Summary
My husband and I used this software to both avoid conception and try to conceive. We successfully avoided for one year (using this software as a supplement to Natural Family Planning), and when we decided to try to conceive we succeeded on the first try. This software is terrific and worth every penny!
-
"Great for Avoiding or Trying"
Version: Ovusoft Fertility Software 1.6
Summary
I used this software when I was avoiding and I used it for one month when we were trying to get pregnant. We got pregnant our first month of trying!
-
"The best--so useful--without it I don't think we'd have our son"
Version: Ovusoft Fertility Software 1.6
Summary
A fantastic resource for figuring out how to achieve or avoid pregnancy, know your body better, and understand your own reproductive health... I can't recommend this (and the website for the company) highly enough. Our son is a direct result of the sfotware and the book.

"This software is great!"
Version: Ovusoft Fertility Software 1.6
Summary
I just started fertility charting about a month ago, and out of the 4 software I have tried, this one is DEFINITELY the BEST!
