What our customer's say!

"Final Draft", I started using Final Draft7 immediately. The instructions were simple; the tutorial was practical and effective. I was able to begin the work on my screenplay in a short period of time. It is easy to use. I did my outline in WORD and wish I'd had Final Draft from the beginning.

"Wish I had More Time", From what I've seen of this product, it has everything that I need to write professional looking plays. I just need to find the time to explore all of the features...and to write in general. I've written one script, and re-formatted another using this program, and have been very impressed with how much time this program can save you once you know what you're doing.

"This program sucks", I'm a professional screenwriter who started on FD back in the day and then converted to Movie Magic. I'm having to use FD 7 on a project I'm collaborating on and it's crashed 5 times now. I hate the interface, it's glitchy, and it doesn't have cool MM features. I do like the format when you print, but man, it ain't worth it. Wish I'd talked my partner into going w/ Movie Magic.

"Much better than no software at all", I haven't tried any other scriptwriting software but this one worked well for me. It's time-saving and makes your script look the way it's supposed to. It's easy to use and I like the format check it will do for you before you print. I think the voices feature is a cool idea but in reality the voices are useless because they don't sound human or have a clue as to inflection. There are more applications and features that are probably awesome but I haven't checked them out yet. Overall,I do recommend it.

"Final Draft for the Geek-Speak Challenged", My screenwriting coach advised me to bump up my work by converting to the industry standard, which I did: Final Draft V7.3.1.

The product works exactly as expected.

As a long-time geek, familiar with software documentation, I found theirs seriously lacking -- obviously written by programmers. (Limited English, abundant screenshots, third-person, talk-down-to-you voice.) That's okay, if you speak geek, they don't change the interface and you don't mind being talked-down-to.

This means that their customer service team must work harder than necessary, holding hands with people learning how to use product features.

Be prepared for first-tier contact challenges that infer you might be a pirate 'user', who has innocently 'borrowed' a friend's copy of their product. (Even if this is not true.)

Ultimately, the contact experience that we developed left me with a sweet taste for a company that works hard at catering to and handling creative types.

I'm smart enough to work my way around faux file-save challenges; to crank up automatic saves and e-mail myself a daily copy of my work. And generally, I can hack my way into features and discover how they work.

"Works great, no complaints", I got this product free in an Emmy goodie bag. I'm not a professional writer, but I have a lot of ideas and wanted to write them down. So this came along and I started using it. I've not experienced one bug or crash. I've used almost all features of the software and it works great. I'm using it under Windows XP... to all those with crashes and bugs, maybe it's your Mac! :)
I would recommend this to anyone.

"Best Thing Ever", Final Draft 7 professional is a great screenwriting software. Before I purchased mine, I had the privillege to use a friends'. Having asked around what would be ideal amongst the numerous screenwriting softwares my professor in school gave me an orientation of Final Draft 7 professional. It is "Simply The Best, Better Than The Rest;"...Tina Turner.
I decided to purchase mine now for use soon as I purchase a Mac computer by February ending. I have a PC at present but I need to embrace the Mac for all it has to offer. I will bet my money on this product for its' utmost satisfaction!!!


Sincerely,
Ifeanyi Paul Nwokedi


"Doesn't Work Well With Vista", I've had both Final Draft 5 & 6, but just bought a brand new laptop, so I figured I should probably upgrade. Bad idea...
Long story short, I ended up uninstalling it and sending it back. For some reason, 6 works better.
Oh, and forget about using Collabowriter on 7. I was told by their own tech people this is never going to work because of new security features built into the new operating systems.

"Final Draft is the best", Final Draft is simply the best screenwriting software out there and as a long time writer and a long time Final Draft user, this version definitely holds up.

"Easy & helpful tool", This software has been a huge help in formatting the soon-to-be hit TV pilot that my writing partner & I are working on. We'll be sure to thank Final Draft & Amazon in our Emmy acceptance speech!
