Ordered Office Pro 2007. Got the link and installed the software but got a warning that the code had been activated too many times. Sent company a screen print as they requested. They did not send another code. I emailed person I had been corresponding with to process a refund. Didn't hear back from her. Called the customer support number and was put on hold. No one ever came back. I hung up and called customer support again - no one would answer the phone. I filed a dispute with my CC company. Very shady people. Stay away.
This Review is for MS Office 2010 code delivered to me electronically. With all the mixed ratings I was a bit skeptical. I called the customer service number and was able to speak with someone before placing my order. They answered all my questions and told me it could take a few hours before receiving my code. The day I purchased my software, there was a 20% promo deal going on. Even better! I am very satisfied with this company. I received my product code within minutes of making my purchase. Everything worked fine and I now have the programs I need on my computer for a fraction of the cost.
Almost every post, especially the 4- and 5-star posts, written on this site since July 2012 are fake and were written by employees of the company being reviewed. They mostly sell OEM and foreign license only.
Purchased Office 2010 Pro download. I installed the software and it worked for exactly 1 year. Then received a notice that the software could not be validated and therefore would shut down. I've tried repair using the original install download but it does not work. I've tried calling the customer service only to find out the number is no longer in service. And I have also e-mailed customer service. I received a return email that said evaluesoftware closed in May 2014. I guess I am screwed. Never again will I buy an expensive product like MS Office as a download. I will only buy directly from the publisher.
Difficult process and rude, unhelpful techs. I cancelled the order because it would not download on my browser. Rude tech wanted me to download a different browser so I could download this software. Very bad experience!
I have bought software from them in the past and I have had no issues.
Yesterday I bought offcie 2010 and the key they gave me was no good. They insisted that I had a trial version of it on the computer already. I told them I have checked and there is no such thing on the computer. They still did not believe me and insisted that I send them a screen capture. So I did. They sent me another key and that was no good either. It would not install. So, as a test, I used a key from back a few months ago and it works. They still are trying to tell me that it is my computer and not the keys. I want my money back and I will never use them again. What a waste of 2 days!
When I tried to activate the software I purchased from Evaluesoftware, the link did not exist. I tried to call and email the company, but it appears they are out of business. DO NOT believe the online reviews.
This was my first experience with eValues software... it was nice to be able to talk to a real person as I wanted the software quickly... they say 1 - 4 hours on the site, I got it in less an hour and was able to get everything up and running the same day... that was big... the person I talked to was very nice and the software was inexpensive and works amazing.

Beware! I got a counterfeit copy of win7 pro, 64bit., "saving $50" It installed, and was activated, but after one month Microsoft detected it was counterfeit. I will never buy from evaluesoftware.com again
Things were fairly simple in ordering. The site is okay, but it doesn't feel quite as user friendly as some other web providers (not necessarily software related). I was unclear as to whether or not I was receiving a download, a CD-rom, or both. Clarification on order details would be helpful.

Fast service, product as described, I would recommend this to a friend. However, I received no installation instructions which caused quite a delay in getting software installed. I finally had to contact Microsoft technical.
They offer a great price, and everything works well.
My only issue is that the download isn't available immediately. It took two to three hours before I could start the installation.
It was worth the savings though. Solid work evaluesoftware.
Having one previous (successful) software purchase from these guys I ordered Office 2012 Professional on disc, which was advertised as being the "full retail package" version. The price was only a few dollars below Microsoft's retail.
I did indeed receive a copy on discs, along with a key which worked, so I am happy there.
However, the discs were labeled "Promotional Disc: Not for resale" and the package seal had been broken & then re-shrink wrapped. But it all worked, so although they are obviously dealing with "grayware" it seems more or less OK. I do recommend buying discs that include a key rather than download with the key to come later (you hope).
Very efficient. I purchased MS Office 2010 for business and they upgraded me to business plus. As I live in the Atlantic time zone I had to wait for mountain time for the order to be processed but it was very fast after 9 a.m. mountain time. I really appreciated the helpful guidelines on the installation regarding the best web browser to use and other recommendations. Without this the installation may not have been so smooth. Very satisfied.
Purchases MS Office Software.
Price was best available.
Links to access purchased software were delivered within 1 hr (1-4 hr promise).
Installation instructions offered effective guidance to install correctly.
They sell download software, but what they don't tell you when you are buying, is that you won't get to download your software immediately. Since I purchased on a Saturday, hoping to upgrade my system on my day off, I won't even find out until Monday whether they are going to actually let me download what I paid for or not. How screwy is that? Ridiculous. I never bought download software before that I had to wait 2 days to download. What's the point?
It is TOO LATE to tell everyone but this company is a fraud run by criminals. Microsoft verified 1/31/15 that the Activation Key Code given to me by these criminals is NOT AUTHENTIC and NOT GENUINE MICROSOFT. I hope there is a way to find Nate Mumme and put his low life A** behind bars and everyone else that had any involvement in this ONLINE SCAM to STEAL from unsuspecting dumb'os like me and everyone else who got screwed.
Just a recent (02/2012) experience review: Purchased Adobe Acrobat X on disc (OEM, just a disc in a sealed paper disc envelope), which was delivered very promptly.
Included was a serial number on a separate card that had data not matching the disc envelope but it installed properly and passed the automatic verification/registration with Adobe. So as far as I am concerned, the transaction was 100% as advertised.
I gather most negative reviewers had problems with the download-and-get-key-later arrangement, I can't comment on that because I didn't purchase that way, but it does seem as if some purchasers maybe didn't read the fine print closely enough.
Evaluesoftware obviously isn't your mainline authorized reseller but they did deliver for me and have been in business for at least a year, so they have to be at least somewhat legit in spite of the gray-market vibes.
No personal experience - just browsing and came across them. When it sounds toooo good to be true it almost always is. Your site's reviewers comments has only confirmed this in spades, blackguard spades. I'm going back to Amazon and know I will be protected. I can always find a quality used product for a decent price and know the seller has positive feedback (or not) and that Amazon's return policy is ironclad. Know this from personal experience.
Thanks all for your feedback. So sorry so many have been ripped. How many thousands more that just suffer in silence.
Got ripped off for ~$240.00. Previously bought Visio and Project along with Win7 without problems, tried for another copy of Visio and I'm told the code they sent isn't for any Office 2013 product
Answer: I just used evaluesoftware and expected an Adobe Acrobat X download within "2-4" hours per their e-mail to me. I soon receieved another e-mail that said they were out of stock for licenses and that it would be 5 days before I would be able to download. I read all of the comments on this site and called them immediately to get a refund but was surprised when they gave me a serial number allowing me to change my trial version (previosuly dowloaded from Adobe) to a full working version. The customer service rep did say they were out but she just happened to have an extra copy. I entered the serial number and it worked. So, other than the e-mail suggesting delays, I was able to purchase the software at a significant savings and get a serial number the same day. Now, whether this serial number is one that has several licenses attached to it or not, i do not know but I do have my software and it works. Thanks to all who commenetd on this thread. By calling I suspect I may have averted a problem similar to others.
