Pro Phone Stink Now
sounds like they got a little greedy and that's that.

DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT
This product is effectively worthless! The whole point to buying telephone numbers is to export them, lots of them, for marketing purposes but "Select Phone Pro" - which used to make this possible - now only allows you to download a paltry 500 without paying a constant surcharge for your next 500 by buying these silly "profiles". The value of 500 numbers is pretty inconsequential to me and I suspect, anyone who is likely to buy this product. Frankly, you're much better off sending your lists to a phone number supplier or simply looking up the numbers on the net for free. Worst of all, there is no indication on the packaging from "Select Phone Pro" that buying the product does not entitle you to the full use of it - really pretty shameful and misleading.

Good Gone Bad
I used to use Select Phone for years to prepare mailing lists. Now, every time I purchase the "upgrade" it gets worse. The product was once user friendly and was great for producing mailing lists. Now it's riddled with pop-up ads and is cumbersome to use. The software was supposed to allow me save 2000 profiles but it only was enabled to do 500. After calling tech support I still couldn't get the profiles. Most firewalls prevent you from getting additional profiles. Needless to say it was a huge waste of time ordering this software. I am returning it. By the way, if you register the software and then cancel they will hound you for months to re-order. I asked them on multiple occasions to stop calling me.

New Greedy Version Destroys Value
This new version requires you to buy every address you print out beyond the first 2000. This drastically reduces the value of the program. Frankly, it's marketed in a very sneaky way because they don't make it very clear you're going to be buying these names until you open the box. They need to go back to the old version with unlimited use.

Impressive features - faulty website
I like this product in general, especially for its search features. While you can search from 115 million listing, you can export only a maximum of 2000 addresses - more exports are available at an additional charge (how much I don't know).

When registering I encountered several crashes, but after at least three tries and the update downloaded from the web, I got my access code.

The registration for the included CD-ROM "Business Credit Ratings USA" failed completely, because access to the website used to enter the registration information is "Forbidden (Error#403) which of course is somewhat lunatic. Trying to contact TechSupport regarding this problem I encountered a faulty link.

Summary:

Usefull, although "freshness" of data is not stated, could have better web-site based support and TechSupport and allow for a larger number exportable addresses. ... Read more
