Thinix RetroUI Pro is easy to use software that allows you to skip the Start screen in Windows 8, brings back the start button and start menu, makes the taskbar visible from the Start screen, allows you to resize Windows Store apps, allows you to block Windows HotCorners, and includes TabletView. Features include skip Metro, block HotCorners and Charms Bar, RetroUI Start Menu, RetroUI Enforce, easy keyboard shortcuts (Hotkeys), and multi-language.
Start menu works fast, lots of options.
Does disable the charms bar (works for me).
Lets you have the taskbar when you are in the new Windows 8 start screen - which is awesome.
Using 'RetroUI version 2.3'
Cons
Not free, but better options than the free ones and no ads like some of them.
Summary
Would highly recommend to anyone who wants their Windows 8 PC to act a little more like Windows 7.
Disappointing.

Pros
Easy to install, easy Configuration.
Cons
I bought Thinix RetroUI (NOT THE PRO).
Takes half a minute until the software passes you to desktop.
not worth it (in my opinion).
I recommend StartMenu8
