ezCheckPrinting for PC and Mac

Software Reviews and Criticism

• By Smug Wimp

  I bought this recently. Now they want more money.

  While I do like the software, I bought this software in January of 2019 from the website. Now in September I need an upgrade, and they told me in order to upgrade I have to purchase it again from the app store. I will not pay again for this software.

  DO NOT PURCHASE THIS SOFTWARE

  I HAVE BEEN USING EZ CHECK FOR FEW YEARS. NOW THAT Windows HAVE A NEW UPDATE, I CAN NOT USE THE OLDER VERSION ON MY Windows. SO NOW YOU HAVE TO BUY A NEW PROGRAM BASICALLY. I DO NOT RECOMMEND!! BAD BAD BAD

  Not Windows ready for prime time

  This may be great for Windows, but the Windows team did buggy, incomplete work. Columns can't be resized or reordered in register -- well, you can resize, but next time you open the app, back to incomprehensible stock widths. Can't suppress a column you never want to see. Columns in weird order. CSV only imports (sometimes these folks say "CVS" indicating the care that went into this). In the latest version, you CANNOT import data with a comma in it -- I've tried 50 times working with their tech support (all Windows folks I think). The one thing that CSV should be able to do is use quotes to isolate/qualify field data containing a comma. This happens alot when importing address data. It does manage with some turgid fumbling to successfully create usable blank check-stock printable checks. But the last Windows update was over a year ago. I suspect the Windows version may be on life support. The report function is a reminder of how things used to be 30 years ago. No options, just what it is! They always sort latest to oldest, in reports (which you can't change) and every time you open the file. For $40 this is way overpriced.

  Update to Simple and Easy

  I upgraded to an M1 Windows Mini in the first week of January 2022 that is running OS 12.1. When I installed the app it opened, I restored the purchase, and it crashed. After re-peated un-installs and re-installs and several messages back and forth with their tech the last response I received was "We are sorry we do not have a solution for this issue. Our programmers will do more research." If they come back with an update, I'll update this review. What's maddening is that the excheck personal works on the new Windows Mini. I found this program to replace a windows based program when I switched my desktop to Windows. I didn't need a program that reports and tracks and keeps a register and yada yada yada since I do that elsewhere. I just needed check printing. That's what this does. Granted, there may be features I'm not using, but I'll admit I haven't noodled around the software very much. There is one thing I'd like to be able to do: that's use carriage returns in the note lines on the stub portion of the checks. Otherwise, I think it's great. There is one other "minor" annoyance. Occasionally I have to "restore full purchase" when I use the program. That may not be any fault of the software; it could be constipation between my PC/account and the Ap Store. Rehardless, with only a few clicks I'm on my way.

  Almost there but not quite......

  This software is excellent for importing excel data and printing checks in a hurry. However it could be greatly improved with just a few tweaks. The lack of options for creating the check stub are pretty sad. We need to be able to add fields from the imported data onto the check stub. Things like, Federal tax withholding amounts, state tax, 401k, insurance amounts etc. OR WHATEVER IS IN YOUR IMPORTED DATA. It's already imported! Let us map it to the stub as well as the check!!!! We also need to be able to combine data from the spreadsheet into one line during the import and mapping process. Things like city, state, zip in separate fields is useless to this software as there is no way to print them in the standard format on the check. Instead we are forced to combine them within excel before the import to get standard looking address. This process of combining data cells within excel, before you import it isn't hard, but it's time consuming and introduces oppurtunites for error. The software should just have the options to do it. We could also use password protection on this app of some sort...
