Review:

When I first started using this software, my first impression was 'am I opening a help file?'. It does look like the MS help files! I won't say it is ugly... Just not appealing visually.

Think about it - who is going to use this software? People interested in cooking! That includes a lot of not-so-computer-literate people. A program like this is not going to make them buy it.

Graphically, it needs improvement.

User friendliness - well, it looks like file explorer - lack of the step-by-step feeling.

On the functional aspect, it does everything that is needed: store recipes, inputting new recipes, printing, export to Word etc. My favourite part is the information of the ingredients. This is so content-rich.

Conclusion:

After all, this is still a software that I would recommend to my friends. But it needs a bit of learning time.
