What other systems did you consider? : We already have Moviemagic Screenwriter, final Draft and Dramatica as well as the usual MS bits and bobs.
Why did you choose it?: It does so much, solves so many problems and releases me to work anywhere and anytime with colleagues. It is also cross platform for Mac and PC as well as Linux.
Did you buy new or used - if new did you consider used / visa versa? : It's an open source project you can just download from www.celtx.com
Who did you buy it from (direct from manufacturer or through a dealer)?: From the publishers' site. www.celtx.com
What price did you pay?: It's free - open source
Were you happy with the sales service?: I got a reply to a question in 20 mins
What major projects have you used it (or plan to use it) for?: I am transferring a number of projects to the software.
Does it perform as expected?: It has more than I thought in it. This is just the first release too.
Pro's: Acts as a central place to make and manage a project. Allows you to back up your projects to a server. Works cross platform with Mac, PC and Linux. Allows collaboration through the server.
Con's: Had to think really, really very hard. Doesn't do budgeting - yet. Has no user customisation of forms that I could find.
What would your brief summary be on this product?: Celtx is an extraordinarily useful bit of software that seems to have most of what I want to do covered. It runs natively on all the computers I own and allows me to work with others. The learning curve is so short it's a straight line (remember your calculus)
