 Great for Schoolwork May 12, 2008

We bought this for my daughters to use, and it does everything they need it to, and they find it easy to use. They have the same version at school and it is absolutely great for composing, arranging etc - they haven't yet had anything they needed to do and couldn't.
Try! January 27, 2008

Although I use the full version, not the cut-down being reviewed here, I have to agree with Fabia that it sounds as if our disgruntled reviewer simply hasn't leaned how to use the application. You do have to read the manual ( sometimes you have to guess what something is called before you can look it up) but it is one of the best non-commercial score writers around (and then, some companies use it too). You can download a trial version from the Sibelius website (you definitely need broadband!) so try it for yourself, but please learn what the various keys do before blaming it for not being Microsoft Word or any other bit of software more familiar to you.
Easy to use, once you know how! November 22, 2007

I have used sibelius for a good few years, at school and colleges, and found no real problems with it apart from one! The person who rated it at one star only found it fiddly because they never pressed escape when they needed to use the cursor freely because if you don't not do that then the whole of your work will change for example if I wanted to delete something from another bar and the cursor on the key-pad was selected on crotchets - It would instantly change something in that bar to a crotchet, so always remember to press escape. Anyway this product I have found to be useful for composing my a-level pieces and I hope to make some good music. Please do not be put off by the angry customer who rated this one star, because the problem they had with this one is just the same for all the other versions of sibelius, you just need to know how to use the program properly, because if you don't things will go wrong.
