Customer Rating: Summary: Cons outweight benfits Comment: I have other software, and if I am sticking to highways, I generally prefer Streets. For more varied trips, it is no longer as reliable as it once was. The biggest problem is that Microsoft will not update its maps. There are many errors on it and because of construction of new highways, many roads are missing.
The software lets you give feedback and report errors, but Microsoft does not correct the reported errors. I guess the feature is to make you feel good about something.
I have bought several versions of Streets and will not buy any more until they update their maps.
Customer Rating: Summary: Just like brand new. Comment: Microsoft Streets and Trips 2007 is rated higher than the newer version, so I grabbed it. It arrived in the original box with instructions and all. Everything in "like new " condition. I have not been able to play with it yet, but I am sure it will perform fine. I had a much older version and wanted this one for it's GPS loading feature and working road condition updates. Customer Rating: Summary: Microsoft Streets and Trips 2007 Comment: I've used and upgraded this product for the past few years. I guess you can never be satisfied with the currency of any product like this, but this product is easy to use and i've grown used to it. It works fine for me. I like how you can easily change the route it provides when it goes stupid. Customer Rating: Summary: could be better Comment: i was expecting more from this product. It takes a very long time to download. The directions were not very accurate, tried to use it in Las Vegas, i thought since it is the 2007 version it would be kind of up dated,it was not!. Some streets were missing!. I had to use mapquest to get directions to those locations. a lot of times it made me take back roads when there were shorter ways to get to my location. If you are not trying to get some fancy program and have all the time in the world when traveling, go ahead! get it! If not, look for something else. Customer Rating: Summary: I liked the 2004 version much better Comment: I was so pleased with streets and trips 2004 that when the 2007 version came out I obtained that one also. I shouldn't have. I don't like the newer version and in fact after installing it, I uninstalled it and put my older 2004 version back on my computer. I may just move to another trip and map software when I update next time. I don't recommend the 2007 version.
