I actually have a few of their products and each one of them do what I want out of them. I use each of the programs for very specific task, I don't want to be overwhelmed by functionality outside the scope of what I want to do, their products are not Bloatware.
The only issue I have is they don't have a "What's New" for new product updates.
This joke of a company converts fully registered products to a trial version then refuse to assist, claiming the registration has run out in a couple of weeks when it is supposed to last a year. This has been experienced by MANY many users not just myself, but soft orbits refuses to recognise this. STAY AWAY!
I consider softorbits to be one of the best apps. A fairly simple program with useful functionality for those who do not want to bother too much and study something. Helps to edit photos for work
Recently I purchased a Photo Stamp Remover software by SoftOrbits. License key was delivered in 3 minutes. Software works fine. I was able to remove date from 500+ photos in a short time. Nice work!
I've downloaded/installed several free SoftOrbits' programs from SharewareOnSale and I've been AMAZED at what they can do, especially 'Picture to Painting Converter,' which enables you to convert a photograph into a painting. I'm not a fan of the software GUI/design because it seems cumbersome and very dated to me, but the program results are top-notch! I also don't like the fact that you have to IMPORT *ONE* picture into the software, convert it and then save the output. It would be MUCH MORE USEFUL/HELPFUL if you could view your photos as thumbnails and then click on the image you want to convert, the way that other photo editing programs do it (like Google Picasa for example).
Dear Laura,
Thank you for your feedback! We'll send your message to our developers.

This company has a few cool utils for me for the remove watermark from photo and video and for the retouching and colorize photos. I see how grow up the quality each year.
Simply great, is is the perfect solution for the online background removal sites. It is simple, effective and fast.
Took a chance and purchased a life x. For one of their applications... presentation on site is such that it leads you to believe that you'll receive access to the various widgets they support. WRONG.
Their applications are independently licensed from each other, and while I've not elected to spend $$$ for every single one, I've looked into several now and their functionality is EXTREMELY limited... Best way to describe it would be to take something like photoshop, hack up ALL of its features and then charge FULL PROGRAM PRICE for a redistro of each and every one of those "chunks."
So, what you get for that $90-$150 is tears worthy. A huge, mindboggling, sum spent for what amounts to a desktop widget.
Were ALL of their applications included in the above licensing fee, my complaints would evaporate, and I would even promote them as a bargain for the cost. But as it stands... Case in point. Were you buy licensing to access all of their applications you'd spend something to the tune of $2,000 to $3,500 (single private vs single business & with tax). Compare that to 10 years of Adobe Pro Licensing for a single user (equivalent cost). Service, support, features & functionality... These guys are so far out of their weight class they can't even compete...
As far as I'm concerned this outfit is a parasite, their "services" are in no way worth the costs... Being a huge proponent of honest & ethical business, reasonable adherence to FMV, the 30% and what not, I'm forced to view this company as one that is as close to being an actually scam site as humanly possible with out tripping right over into legitimate fraud...
Buyer be ware. Avarice at its best.
PS: to the comment from their "rep" below. I am 100% talking about Softorbits. Also, when attempting to do buisness with a given market or population it would conventionally be considered basic/common sense to understand the jargon and lingo they use... They guys... **facepalm** Zero... given. Life x, life sub, perm license, etc etc etc etc.etc etc... **sigh** do they not seen the actual recipet I uploaded!?!?!?!?
It seems that you left the wrong review. SoftOrbits do not have a "life x" product.

Hello,
Probably you've mentioned a free registration of our promo keys for different promotions.
The thing is, the free key can only be registered if the promotion is currently running. You can't register the free key twice and this means that you can't reinstall or update the program.
In order to use the full version of the program, you need to buy your own registration key. The purchased key is valid for all minor updates until a new major version is released. If you need to change the computer or reset the registration, our support team will always reactivate the purchased key for the new registration of the program.
After the activation, your key is written into the registry. Sometimes users install and use registry cleaners which might lead to the key being accidentally deleted. There also might be some system error that we have no control over. This is how the registered program can deregister. If this happens to a purchased key, we can always reactivate it, if the key is free, we cannot. We hope we've cleared things up a little bit on how this problem might occur.
Have a nice experience with our programs!
Sincerely,
SoftOrbits Customer service
