While the software effectively automates some repetitive tasks, the initial installation and configuration can be cumbersome and time-consuming.

  • gameplay
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users highlight that the gameplay experience can be significantly hindered by long-standing issues, such as the lack of a feature to lock the mouse on the primary monitor during real-time games, which has been pending for six years. Additionally, some games do not support high refresh rates, prompting players to adjust their monitor settings to 60Hz for smoother gameplay.

  • graphics
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are functional and practical, with a usable UI that isn't visually striking but not unattractive either. However, users report performance issues, including significant resource consumption that can lead to graphics lag and crashes in demanding games.

    • “It can hog system resources without explanation, cause horrible graphics lag and outright crash resource-hungry games.”
