Very powerful with tons of hidden features that are indeed gems. Choices of scripting languages and features. Lots of online help and community. Product is free, solid, and a industry standard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Unofficial online Help is fragmented and often out of date as versions change. Suffers from lack of 'true ownership.' Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
