- Not bad, but inferior cards to the competing Hallmark greeting card program
If you decide to buy a current greeting card program, there are really only two front-line choices: Art Explosion Greeting Card Factory (currently version 5) or Hallmark Card Studio (currently 2006). There are other programs available specifically for creating cards, but most of them are low quality and outdated, and aren't really worth considering. (A competitive third product featuring American Greetings designs is sadly now long outdated).

So how do these two products match up? Without a question, if you are looking for quality "canned" cards, the Hallmark program wins. The Hallmark designs are professional, and are equal in quality to cards you would purchase in a store. In contrast, the designs in Art Explosion are adequate but surely NOT up to the quality of a store-bought card. The Hallmark program is also able to simply and correctly print to several different types of card store (although you are stuck with the choices pre-programmed into the software unless you want much frustration). The Art Explosion does a poorer job of correctly and simply printing to a variety of card stock and configurations.

Art Explosion beats the Hallmark program in editing options (more extensive), and in the amount of additional art (clipart, etc.) included with the package.

If you do not plan to use the "canned" cards, then I would recommend Art Explosion. But the average user will likely appreciate the professional, high quality cards in the Hallmark package. Personally, I consider the choice of the Hallmark package over Art Explosion a no brainer.

A note on versions: The publisher comes out with a new version of the Hallmark program every year (2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, etc.) and the same is true for Art Explosion Greeting Card Factory. Having used many of these versions, I find very little reason to recommend upgrading year by year. Disappointingly, the stock cards in the Hallmark program do not seem to have changed appreciably in many years, and the same is true for Art Explosion.

This is one of the better greeting card progarms I have and I have tried 5-6 programs. It has many available choices plus others online.

I like the program itself, but it won't print your project when you're finished. It shows up in the folder for the printer, but it never prints.

This is an outstanding software package for making cards. I have been designing cards for a number of years using another popular product. But I needed a new, upgrade program. This has so many improvements over my old software, it's so much more fun to do cards. It is easy and fast. There is an abundant assortment of art at your fingertips. It has a huge file of sentiments. The most flexible software I've seen. My only negative comment is I'm still waiting for my rebate - over 2-1/2 months now. I would select this over my other two packages in a minute. Importing is also very easy and changing the premades is a piece of cake.

- Customer NO-Service Makes this a DON'T BUY
The product would hang my entire machine when I tried to install. Always hung after insertion of disc 2. Couldn't even get customer no-service to consider the fact that the product disc may be defective. Very hard to even get a response to my requests. Consider another product....there are many out there.
