Obtain the best multimedia software by doing the following:
1. Find providers of multimedia software that let you create dynamic presentations, websites and other interactive files.
2. Look for reviews on multimedia authoring software that give you information on different software packages.
3. Search for discounts on multimedia application software to save money.
Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done
Research multimedia software applications
Locate suppliers of multimedia software with a thorough web search. Find rich media software that provides all-in-one capabilities for easy creation, editing, configuration and conversion.
I recommend: Create interactive media files with Mediator 9, a powerful award-winning media authoring tool that lets you create multimedia files in four easy steps. With just a few clicks, create professional-looking CD-ROM presentations, touch-screen displays for kiosks, Flash projects and dynamic HTML web designs. Flair by Wildform converts PowerPoint and video to Flash. It also captures video and audio, animates files, generates text effects and outputs small files through the web, CD-ROMs and email.
Find reviews and information about multimedia software to get the best multimedia solution
Learn whether the product you're considering is stellar or a dud. Make a smart purchase on your multimedia software by checking out sites that provide in-depth product reviews as well as at-a-glance star ratings.
I recommend: Epinions offers comparisons and consumer reviews on a variety of software packages, including multimedia authoring software. Also comparative shop between online stores. CNET provides customer ratings on multimedia authoring software; the site also designates Editors Choice awards to those packages that exceed the site's expectations.
Get discounts on multimedia software applications
Check discount sites for special deals and discounts on multimedia software packages. Many of the top sites will let you comparison shop to get the best deal. Search by categories or manufacturers.
I recommend: SoftwareMedia.com offers discount prices on multimedia software for video, audio and DVD authoring. The site also offers online buying guides to let you compare different software packages. PriceGrabber.com lets you shop for the best deal offered by resellers of the top multimedia software.
Tips & Tactics
Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide
- • Take advantage of free trials and downloads to try out particular packages before purchase.
- • Don't overspend on bells and whistles; shop for a package that meets your exact needs and doesn't offer unnecessary features.
- • You can find multimedia authoring tools at shareware sites, but their capacities may be limited. Usually these sites offer beta versions you can try as well. Caveat: Always be wary of sites offering illegal downloads; you may pick up a spyware virus.
