Pros

“In addition to writing scenes and dialog, it has tools to analyze your beat structure, track your characters, and other developmental necessities in creating a good script. And the Customer Support team is very responsive, answering any questions I have had usually within a day, sometimes within a couple of hours.”

“It's confidence-building to know that my script is professionally formatted, easy to read, and easy to use for performances.”

Writer

“We write — that is our modus operandi. Why lose a millisecond pressing the Shift key to capitalise a character's name? Why lose a couple of seconds to correct a spelling error? Why continually scroll to keep the writing near the top of the screen (closer to eye level)?”

Cons

“I find it expensive over other software when working on low-budget productions.”

“Numerous features never worked for reasons that as far as I can tell were due to the compatibility of different software versions. While that might sound reasonable, the updates were frequent and always cost substantial amounts of money (for just an update!).”

“The main difficulty resides in using special letters in other languages than English.”
