I read the other reviews, and with all due respect, I suspect some of these comments are colored by some lack of experience (I’m sorry, I don’t mean to be rude, I have no doubt these people are totally sincere but what I’m seeing is very different). I just bought and installed this software. First, if you happen to receive a box that has a second VIVEZA disk in it, DO NOT INSTALL THE VIVEZA ON THE MAIN DISK!!! You will end up with a nonfunctioning version of VIVEZA stuck in your Photoshop Filters menu that you can’t get rid of. Install the rest of the plug-ins, then VIVEZA from the stand alone disk, then use the KEY from the main disk (yes, that’s right – what could they possibly have been thinking? Not to mention they didn’t bother to provide even those simple instructions. The software is written in the same careless way). And don’t bother to ask for help from “Customer Support” – they just do the old “presume ignorance on the part of the customer” thing and tell you to uninstall it (as if you would have written them before doing that). In my case my email explicitly TOLD them the uninstall doesn’t work but they just told me to do it anyway. So the main point of all of that is that not surprisingly, the software is has exactly the same low quality characteristics. Its written for inexperienced people who don’t realize they’re not actually getting anything useful for their money. Everything these plug-ins do can be done easily and more effectively with basic Photoshop but without the poorly thought out interfaces (Silver Efex Pro for example doesn’t even display what effect you’ve chosen! Once you’ve selected it, you’re stuck if you didn’t write it down somewhere) and weird artifacts this very amateurish software produces. Oh, and don’t expect that useless reply to your request for help anytime soon – they didn’t respond to most of my requests at all, and the one time they did (and wasted my time telling me to do exactly what I’d just told them doesn’t work), it took days. Don’t waste your money on this – do it in photoshop!

Please don’t buy this software, the competition is stiff enough! If you do buy it though you will be happy. Great plug-in for PS.

I liked everything about this software but the price! Seems very expensive for what you get. Works good with XP and PS CS4 running on 3G of ram!

I love this software collection and use it daily with Photoshop. All the settings for each tool the user can adjust to their preferences and come up with a lot of wonderful effects.

Download the free-trial from the Nik site first…then you will be hooked. Wait till Amazon sells this with the Viveza 2 upgrade.
