What do you like best about your software. What do you like least?
Your like should be something you believe is different from other software
While I own several different software licenses, I use Otsav primarily.
It's very easy for me to use. Very stable. Uses windows functions(copy paste). My favorite part is the search and lists.i. I sort my Lists by most played. When I search, usually 2-3 key strokes will pull up the song I want. Simply hitting enter will put the song in whatever list I'm working in. Hitting delete clears my search bar for the next song. So I can load their whole request list very quickly.
The bad:
They are simply awful with the amount of time between updates. They added karaoke in 2006 and said a hoster part is coming soon. We are still waiting.
around 2008, an update came out with no new features but said it's a whole new build that they can now put out updates much quicker. The updates actually got slower.
They charge a premium price, which I had no problem paying when I believed they were the best. My younger djs prefer vdj, which is cheaper because you can use vdj on a backup. I have 5 current 1.90 licences. But I also have 4 V1.85 ones that I paid $300 each for that they want another $200 each to make them functional. These older ones dont work on Windows 10.
It was cheaper for me to buy 2 vdj licenses, which is what the djs wanted.
I've tried vdj, but have gotten so used to ots, that I keep going back. I'll probably use ots until they stop supporting their DJ software all together or until I retire.
