"Maybe some clipboard functions could be added along with integration of different software."
"Sometimes when updating, the install window is on top of the prompt to close the application."
"If there was a way to streamline the process, it would make it nice."
"There are always bugs to squash, beyond that, it is really kind of difficult for new users to discover and use many of the features due to the bewildering array of choices and ways to do things."
"The filing system of connections is a little clunky, but is completely functional."
