Why not say up front that the software requires payment before being operational? The website says "Free download". Well, yes, technically, the download process was free. But its certainly not what they knew we would expect. So silly. Just being upfront and honest and straightforward is a much better business plan. This tells me how desperate they are as a company; willing to do/ say anything to trap someone into buying.

I Laser cut images of weddings, cats, dogs etc etc onto slate and other materials for folks so being able to turn a dead photo into a live sketch is a boon for me. Sketch Drawer does just that - very flexibly & intuitively and produces great results. If you need help there is a real person to come to your aid by email or phone.

Good day.
I want to get a few impressions from your programs.
I own two of your Soft Orbis Sketch Drawer 7.2+ Picture to Painting Converter 2.2 programs and I can say that I am satisfied with them. They really walk, they are very variable and the results are very high compared to others.
PrivacyProtector is also a proven program and I used its triple version. This program is on Win 10 against Microsoft Spying. So I can recommend for me.

Great Stuff

Very pleased with all their software. It is simple to use but does the job very well yes, sometimes better than Photoshop. Their service is exceptional. When you email them they answer you immediately and resolve your problem.

Be careful with this "software company". The do not offer refunds to their poor products. Their "business" address is located at a bunch of apartments in San Diego. One of their customer representives.: Eugene Ustinenkov. Posts his own fake reviews on Trustpilot and other sites. Stay away! Buyer Beware!

I'm a newbie photographer so utilities that allow editing photos easily and inexpensively are very useful to me. Softorbits has some nice ones for removing background and editing out the unwanted objects. Pretty cool!

I've owned both Easy Photo DeNoise and Easy Photo Unblur for a couple of years; it works and does a great job on images that other, more expensive software doesn't, once you figure out the best settings for your image.

The registration codes seem to stop working after a while and the programs revert to trial mode, which is frustrating. There have been other reviews on this, too. Eugene seems like a good guy and has been responsive whenever I've submitted a request, so I'm sure he'll get this worked out sooner rather than later. If not for this issue, I would have given 5 stars.

I had the opportunity to test Photo Retoucher in the trial version and I was conquered by the simplicity and immediacy of use. Those who do not like overly complex programs that require hours and hours of learning will find effective features in this program with minimal effort.
Not least I found assistance, competent and kind.

I purchaser this product & received a license key to use it. However, there was no place to enter this lic key to actually use it. So, I clicked on support & they responded after 3 days. Unfortunately, I needed this software to work right away & couldn't wait 3 days to use it & found another, less expensive way with another product that worked immediately. Since I was never able to use the lic key, I requested a refund, which they declined. So, AVOID them. They take your money & product won't work without receiving a different link from them to enter the key, apparently days later. Not sure it even works then, since I never used it. I will gladly pass this lic key onto someone else at a major discount if you really want to give this product a go. Otherwise, avoid this product like the plague. Horrible product. Horrible customer service.

Does What I Want It To Do
March 29, 2024

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!

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

Simple program
November 16, 2021

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

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).

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!?!?!?!?
