Application Reviews
1 – 18 of 5,369
DirecTV Now
DirecTV Now delivers an impressive mix of channels for the money, but people who prioritize a cloud DVR should look elsewhere.
Adobe Flash CS3 Professional
Adobe has improved the speed of Flash and its integration with other CS3 apps, although flashy new features are few. Plus, Flash now works natively on Intel-based Macs.
Sony PlayStation Vue
Sony's PlayStation Vue lets you ditch cable TV and still enjoy tons of live channels and DVR features, and you don't even need a PlayStation.
Google Spreadsheets
The online Google Spreadsheets is free, easy to use, and handy for collaboration, but stick with Excel for complex spreadsheets.
Verizon V Cast
While it falls short of TV-quality video, Verizon's 3G V Cast service offers plenty of eye candy and speedy Web browsing for a reasonable price.
Apple Pay iOS
In partnership with retailers, banks and credit card companies, Apple launches the iOS mobile payment service Apple Pay in the US on October 20.
Orb
If you often wish you had a way to share your photos and home movies while away, Orb might be the perfect solution.
Windows Live Apps
We like the cohesive look and feel as well as useful functionality offered by the free Windows Live apps.
Adobe Acrobat DC
Adobe Document Cloud, its apps and applications look like a very good start, but you may want to wait a bit before jumping in with anything other than Fill & Sign.
SurePayroll
SurePayroll is a convenient service for white-collar businesses--though it's pricier than PayCycle and slightly harder to use.
Windows Phone 8.1
Windows Phone 8.1 is the best update yet, thanks to its revamped design and modern features, but it lags behind iOS and Android.
Microsoft Edge
Microsoft's has built a new, Modern browser for Windows 10.
Google's the way to go for straight Web searching, local results, maps, or image queries, but we found better engines for multimedia searches.
Sprint Mobile Broadband
For mobile professionals, Sprint Mobile Broadband offers a compelling alternative to hot-spot services.
Starz Vongo
We love the idea of Starz Vongo and think $10 per month is a fair price for all-you-can-watch movies, but the service needs a better selection of movies and improved compatibility with portable devices.
Brinkster Web Host
Brinkster offers a reasonable amount of bandwidth and storage for a low price, but its above-average technical support makes it stand out.
Microsoft Office 2013
Familiar tools coupled with new features and a simplified and redesigned interface make Office 2013 well worth the paid upgrade.
T-Mobile HotSpot
If you're a Windows user with a taste for Starbucks lattes, you'll love T-Mobile's slick, safe, and easy-to-use HotSpot service, although you'll pay a premium to use it.
