Mariner Calc is out of date and not very attractive.
River Valley reviewed on 04 Jun 2009
However it is infuriatingly disobedient, especially when it comes to calculations involving time variables. Frankly i'm just disappointed through and through.
However its not as cumbersome as NeoOffice or OpenOffice, but as a commercial paid-for application i would have offered my customers a bit more - view zoom at the very minimum
One of its saving graces however is that it will load in any Excel file without error whereas the two opensurce and even Excel itself does all sorts of print errors on older version files.
Its causing me a lot of time lost and as much as i'd like to continue with it until its justified its purchase, i think the equation is running backwards. Its a piece of *klonk* man.
Going back to 3D calc on my Atari !

Do you really need all that comes with Excel?
Not I.

I reach for Calc when I need to get something done. For the last course I taught, I created layers to grade homework and exams and linked them to create the final grading sheet.
I too miss the ability to zoom. For looking at spreadsheets created by others, Calc is not my first choice. But for actual work, it's just about perfect.

However, I'd like to note how very difficult they make it for paying customers to upgrade their Mariner Calc installs.
I own a current, valid license for Mariner Calc.
To upgrade I had to fill out a form on their website with my name and email address and opt-out of their mailing list.
Then I had to confirm my email address "to reduce spam". That makes no sense, I am not emailing them I trying to upgrade my licensed copy of their app.
Anyway I do this and it takes me to the download page. I click on the download link and lo behold and I must AGAIN fill out this form and opt-out of their mailing list before they will give me the latest version of the app I paid $50 for.
Mariner, take a page from Panic, Adium, iBank and the likes and do NOT make your customers jump through irritating hoops to upgrade!!

Mariner Calc imported all the Excel spreadsheets I tried it with, although one formula didn't convert properly.

This thing is still Carbon and word has it Mariner is coming out with a Windows veresion, which means they arent really committed to the Mac platform.
They are committed to trying to drive away the competition by squatting on their domains - look what they did to Mellel.
Does the Mac community need a publisher like this?
-Progam has hardly changed in years, and updates are tiny.
Actually the product has changed significantly since it was released in the mid 90's. We are now in major development for version 6.0 which brings to the table significant UI and feature improvements.
The updates are tiny compared to whom? Microsoft? I can assure you that if we had 100 developers working on one product our updates wouldn't be so "tiny."
-This thing is still Carbon and word has it Mariner is coming out with a Windows veresion, which means they arent really committed to the Mac platform.
Since when is developing on both platforms not supporting the Macintosh? We have been a Macintosh developer for 15 years! Not many companies can say that. You also might want to let Apple in on your theory as they develop for both platforms as well (can you say iTunes?).

Remember, there are two sides to every story.

Our daily testimonials tell me they don't mind, but thanks for your support anyway.
-Remember, there are two sides to every story.
Very true. And it's very telling that Mariner has chosen to never tell its side.
So what's your point?
You guys are too busy making sure your product is listed in the same searches as Mellel and Nisus here at MacUpdate and over at Version Tracker. Youd rather do that than fix your software.
You cant even write your own software anymore. Your biggest seller is something you bought, and your last two releases were programs you purchased.
Nothing ever stops Mariner. From being unable to fix their programs and being shady marketers.
Boycott them.
