Sibelius is the best notation software

Before buying Sibelius One I downloaded a trial version as well as a trial version of Finale Print Music and used both to work on producing a score for a piece of music for solo piano that I had composed and which was in MIDI form. Sibelius was the clear winner, it had a more pleasing user interface and I was able to figure out how to do everything I needed to do either by reading the manual or by searching the Web. I have not noticed any essential features that are lacking from Sibelius One, so far I have been able to do everything I need to produce a professional looking score which can I have already posted on the sibeliusmusic web site.

Worst Software I Have Ever Used Period.

I'm a relatively tech-savvy guy. I work with all sorts of programs from Illustrator, Photoshop & Final Cut. I needed something to use to score out music. This seemed like a reasonable option.

Let me be clear. I have never been more frustrated with any software. Ever. It is the most un-user-friendly software I have used and doesn't hold to any remotest realm of common sense. For the past 20 minutes, I've been trying to put in a whole note. A single whole note. 20 minutes. Still not done. Again, I'm not inept at this type of thing. I've been over and through the manual. Again, let me be clear. This is the worst and most frustrating software I have ever used. Luckily it's on my computer (which I love) or I would have thrown it out the window months ago.

Good Value

My wife is a songwriter and was able to quickly and easily learn this software and use it to compose a choir piece. It's obviously not as powerful as the full version, but definitely is a better value. The Sibelius forums are very helpful for whatever you can't figure out.
