"Waste of money and time"

IgnatiosGeo September 20, 2013 / Version: CubeDesktop NXT 2.0

2013-09-20 09:43:47 | By IgnatiosGeo

Pros

If I had manage to try it I would probably say nice interface ( but now it is based only on a trailer I saw)

Cons

Plenty. For starters the installation was blocked by my antivirus as it found the pck/msil.confuser which is considered to be a virus. So it deleted the .exe file and the software of course wouldn't run. I downloaded the trial version from their site. I did the "repair installation" and I did manage to get a clean installation after all. But twice in a raw the software crashed. The third time I tried to activate the cube effect and it crashed my computer. It has never crashed before, but once in 2 years again from a dodgy trial soft.
I didn't bother paying because if someone who is promoting a product a)has a virus, b) the software crashes, it means they don't really care. Actually they don't care at all.

Summary

DO NOT download the trial. It has a virus. It is absolutely annoying, it's buggy and waste of time. Needless to say waste of money of course.

"Not Impressed"

mmdmjcop September 16, 2012 / Version: CubeDesktop 1.4

2012-09-16 08:17:51 | By mmdmjcop

Pros

I DO NOT FIND ANY (OOPS I RAN OUT OF TIME...)

Cons

I personally didn't care that much for this software. I didn't think it was all that great. I had the trial version that they give you to test out their product for 115 minutes (or something close to 115) and the way I see it is, you don't time to even use the FREE part that is being offered to see if you even want to keep it and use it on your computer. One didn't have time to even go from desktop screen to desktop screen to compare. You can keep your product, there are more products like this one and even better.

Summary

I would not waste my time or money...

"did not save different desktop settings"

Ceeska July 23, 2011 / Version: CubeDesktop 1.3.1

2011-07-23 08:25:17 | By Ceeska

Pros

easy to use if it worked properly

Cons

would not save the different icons/wallpapers for each desktop despite the boxes being checked. no response from software developer. waste of money since they do not issue refunds.

Summary

poor support, poor product and site has not been updated in two years, yet they still want your money even if the product does not work.

"Its like I have an apple now!"

prince_willip October 24, 2010 / Version: CubeDesktop 1.3.1

2010-10-24 02:48:36 | By prince_willip

Pros

- Makes desktop navigation easier
- Looks super cool
- Easy to use and very nice interface
-It's exactly what windows is missing in functionality

Cons

- The cube can be a bit difficult to rotate
- You can set the middle button of the mouse to an expose like function (same in apple) but you have to click on the destop wallpaper for it to work. This is a bit annoying.

Summary

Awesome!

Updated on Mar 1, 2011

take back what I said. The software is actually quite annoying.

"Good stuff!"

tweakgeekthemefreak January 09, 2010 / Version: CubeDesktop 1.3.1

2010-01-09 13:12:02 | By tweakgeekthemefreak

Pros

Plenty...so I won't put em down!

Cons

None...so i don't need to put anything down!

Summary

This is a seriously neat application, allowing for the use of multiple virtual desktops, and using the features like the carousel to display the windows is a nice touch. Graphically it's very smooth and very clean, and are entirely customisable. I think for a program of it's kind, they pretty much thought of everything on this one. It's great on a laptop too.

Summary

Good utility for someone who wants multiple screens without multiple monitors.
Cost benefit.
