• Great Product just works

  TheLip12345April 19, 2013

  Pros

  This is a great product thaty works and saves me a lot of hassle. I work from home and I am usually coding so I don't want to be interupted for a telemarketer. I just glance at the screen popup (which will auto hide after the time limit you set in prefs) and know if it's someone I need to talk to. I have it set to send me an email with the callerid,number and time a call comes.

  Cons

  It could use a little more robustness for the email settings , like being able to set specific port numbers rather than just defaulting to stand.

• Excellent Product - Outstanding Support

  tischlersDecember 11, 2011

  Pros

  CIDTrackerX provides a clean, easy to read interface which is fully supported by Lion OSX. It works exactly as described and has the additional unexpected feature of being able to speak the name of the caller during incoming calls. Very cool! Tech support was outstanding. I initially had a problem with my Zoom 3095 modem being unable to communicate with the software, and Dean Davis responded to my inquiry almost immediately even though it was late at night. (The modem needed a simple reset.) His response was also unexpected and outstanding. This is a great program which is very reasonably priced at $15.00.

  Cons

  None known.

  Summary

  Highly recommended.

• Good, if it ever gets fixed

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Well, the good news is that this is the only CID program that reliably works with my Aluminum iMac and Apple USB modem. The bad news is that the program appears not to properly detach the modem when the computer goes to sleep. So if CIDTrackerX is running when the iMac goes to sleep, my computer gets stuck in sleep mode and requires a power cycle to restart. I submitted a bug report and never got a response, and there have been no updates for quite a while. If it ever get fixed it'll be good, but right now it's useless to me.

• Where are the instructions?

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />This seems like a full-featured product, but where is the manual? There are many buttons and options in the preferences and elsewhere, but not much help in understanding the full potential. Does it do Call Waiting Caller ID? What modems are supported? What are the "Client", "YAC Client" and "Server" modes? What does a "Format" do? How do you make one? The list of questions goes on. This is really an incomplete product until a complete manual is included with the software.
