CD Front End GOLD 2013.22.22

CD FrontEnd PRO creates professional autorun CD DVD presentations. With it you can make self-running catalogs, brochures, simple CD menus, and much more.  When completed, the end user simply inserts the autoplay CD, then a Web-like presentation is shown. You can include video, music, hyperlinked texts, hot spots, slides, frames, popup windows, and buttons.  You can launch documents, PDF's, or self-extracting exe files. You can show licenses, additional info, etc.

No browsers or specific programs are needed to view the presentations. The self-running CD/DVD plays on all PCs. You can create a simple custom front end menu as well as a complex CD-ROM with thousands of pages.


Pluses: Powerful, support for numerous different program types and formats

Drawbacks/flaws: Daunting and not very intuitive. Expensive.

In conclusion: CD Front End Pro is a professional tool; and it's got a professional price tag to boot. While consumers can master and use this program, I didn't find it as intuitive as I was hoping it would be when I initially installed it.
