ixDownload.com Announces Addition of Product and Software Reviews to Their Website

Bellevue, WA (PRWEB) April 30, 2009 -- The difficult economic situation has made most people think twice before spending a lot of money on anything. This also holds true when it comes to expensive software upgrades for computers. Since it is, therefore, absolutely crucial to know exactly what one can expect from a particular piece of program, be that an antivirus software or an addition to the virtual home office, ixDownload.com is providing free reviews for every piece of software that is downloadable on their website with upcoming freeware and drivers.

ixDownload was launched in December of 2008 and its goal since then has been to "guide visitors to the right software, deliver valuable information and provide first class reviews". This new review feature will help customers with difficulties to make a decision on which new product to download. So far reviews for Adobe, Symantec/Norton, PC Tools, ESET, F-Secure and Zonealarm have been published and many more are in the making.

For people who are concerned about the safety of their computer and private data the Norton/Symantec reviews will be of particular interest. Evaluated programs include Norton 360 (http://www.ixdownload.com/products/norton/norton-360/), which is supposed to provide full protection (hence the name 360) against malicious elements to anyone who wants to protect his or her computer. It contains the features that are most beneficial to a general user group such as antivirus, anti-phishing, antispyware, a firewall, and many more. For people who are more interested in a specific safety feature, the reviews for Norton Internet Security, Norton Antivirus, Norton Antibot, Norton Ghost, and other Norton protection software will definitely help to make an informed decision as to which program will best cover those needs.

The Adobe Product reviews cater to an entirely different customer group. Adobe focuses on software that helps users to create files for specific purposes and web graphics development. The most well known Adobe product is probably Adobe Acrobat (http://www.ixdownload.com/products/adobe/adobe-acrobat/), which allows users to view, create, and manage files in the popular Portable Document Format (PDF). This software was created for professionals who work in creative fields such as journalism, advertising, and publishing but it's a very useful program for the masses, since the PDF format has become immensely popular. For individuals who need software for their creative endeavors, whether it is for professional purposes or for personal use, the reviews on a number of other Adobe programs will be very helpful. Adobe Photoshop (http://www.ixdownload.com/products/adobe/adobe-photoshop/), for example, is a program that allows for image and bitmap manipulation and is so popular that it is often quoted as the industry standard. Similarly popular is Adobe Flash, which is used for interactivity and animation on web pages. These, however, are just a few example of the great work that has been done by ixDownload reviewing all of these software products (http://www.ixdownload.com/products/).

In addition to the newly added reviews, which will be updated on a regular basis, ixDownload posts discounts and special offers on a variety of commercial software as well as interesting computer and internet related news and headlines. ixDownload has definitely fulfilled its goal to be a superb guide in all things concerning software for experts and uninformed people alike.
