Easy download, easy set up
ChezLaRueMarch 6, 2018
Pros
Set up is a breeze. Program is stable.
Cons
The design and send steps are not intuitive since one must save the design before sending it.
Summary
Smilebox has a reasonably priced annual license fee. The features are just wonderful plus the designs can be personalized with any photo one has. Even videos can be uploaded although I have not taken time to do that.
Love this program. Makes the best cards and invitation

None I can think of.
Summary
Try it, you'll like it.
Great Product
Mike WatjenMarch 10, 2016
Pros
Very easy to create quick invitations and cards Email import is great
Cons
Searching for addresses within email is tedious Can't seem to change the picture once saved. (This is offset by how easy it is to create)
Summary
I think this product is great!! I was able to create personalized invitations for my daughter's birthday with relative ease. I was able to send the invite quickly to friends and family and also print them locally at Walmart. Overall, it is very fast and easy.
Best photo program ever!
bella3cadieMarch 2, 2016
Pros
Wide selection of designs; ease of use; quality of final product.
Cons
I'd prefer a larger area to display uploaded photos.
Summary
I've been subscribed to Smilebox for several years and will never cancel because I'm able to use it for so many different occasions, and feedback from recipients is always reported as being so delightful to receive. Using the program is so much fun!
Great Product

Pros
They have many design choices as well as as music choices and you can use your own music as well.
Cons
When you burn the creation to disk and go to play it back on your DVD or Blu ray player, you lose alot of quality in the picture.
Summary
The product and program works really great and is very easy to use. I just wish they can fix the quality issue when you burn your creation to a DVD.
So much fun to create customized greetings!
SMScraftFebruary 13, 2016
Pros
Flexible and customizable Ability to use my own photos, music & more Always loading new templates Lots of ideas and options
Cons
I don't have time to use it as often as I'd like, so I don't always get my money's worth (annual subscription).
Summary
I've been a Smilebox subscriber since 2007. Even though I don't have as much time to create eScrapbooks, cards and other greetings for family and friends, I continue to renew my subscription because my creations are always accepted by family and friends with such joy. Great fun to create specialty greetings with my own photos & music!
Easy Way to Send XMAS Card Electronically
msorfaliDecember 12, 2015
Pros
Easy way to organize multiple photos for a year-in-review to send to friends and family for holiday greetings!
Cons
Selecting which photos to use.
Summary
Seems I end of using this as my go-to way to get holiday greetings out when it is too late to order hard print cards. I love the ease of use and choice of multi photo greetings.
Awesome for party invitations, love this software!
AnnaLloydDecember 2, 2015
Pros
Use it mostly for party invitations but great for birthday cards as well. Love the "event central" for parties Lots of selection in the free cards
Cons
I use the free cards so can't really complain about anything!
Summary
Great product!
great for cards and announcement.
November 29, 2015
Pros
love the ease of decorating your own card and emailing or printing it
Cons
don't care for the premium option. you only get to use a few, unless you spend like $10 a month then you can do anything and everything. not everyone wants to pay. so that's not cool and the best cards options are under premium
Summary
Charged $50 for nothing
dinoslayer33November 25, 2015
Pros
None. Absolutely not worth the price.
Cons
I am completely flabbergasted that this app charged me $50 to use it. It is no where worth $50. Completely not worth it. Please don't download.
