 CAREFUL! Color Palette software is the main point! July 30, 2009

If you are looking for a colorimeter to calibrate your LCD or laptop monitors you might want to look elsewhere!
When I first saw this product I thought it was a colorimeter with neat palette software. I was wrong, in reverse it is software with a calibration tool. A monitor MUST ALWAYS have the software running. the software creates a 'profile' on your operating system start up, it does not actually help you configure your monitor settings. So if you thought you were going to go around your house and office using a tool to calibrate all the monitors, think again. A second issue, the software only licenses you for three installs. Since you cannot calbrate monitors without the software installed that leaves you SOL now doesn't it?
If you have only one work station is this a good product? Yes, it seems to be solid. Calibration was spot on, lots of features and a great price. Works with adobe, I would recommend this. Be aware that Colormunki DESIGN is also able to calibrate your PRINTER but that bundles costs about 300$ over the cost of Colormunki CREATE. The reason is DESIGN has a spectrophotometer, where it can read colors from any object, such as paper, cloth, plants?! and CREATE can only do video screens.
Easy to use, but there's potential software conflicts June 25, 2009

Installation was simple and straight forward. I got my first computer in 1987, so I've had a good bit of experience with computers. The instructions are well written, and the design is first-rate -- excellent for the price. I did not give it five stars because although I had no problem using, I developed some software problems with other programs after installing it. Software conflicts are best handled by experts, so the user may have to seek help.

I saw a demo on this product while attending Macworld. The packaging and the monkey logo are a little goofy so I was leery before the demo. Happy to say that I just got it from Amazon recently and it is working great. It has a color correction (calibration) tool that calibrates monitors. I followed the really basic instructions and it took a few minutes. If you have never calibrated your monitor, you should do so. It made a big difference for me. What I like best are all of the software features. It has a digital version of the Pantone color library - very cool. I also found the Print Safe feature to be helpful. This tells you how close you can get to specific colors based on your printer. I also liked the fact the the software showed me what an image on my monitor would look like on my 4 color (CMYK) printer. In short, the device is inexpensive, accurate and has lots of great software features.
