"Where DVD Workshop really succeeds is in its unique approach to authoring. the interface makes no attempt to be cold, sober 0r professional - its agenda is to make the authoring process as simple as possible. WorkShop is a program easy enough for consumers to use, yet powerful enough to create projects to a professional commercial level."

Ulead's DVD Workshop 2.0 - Full of “hidden” gems
By Douglas Spotted Eagle

"Ulead really stepped up to the pump with this one, and it will be interesting at NAB 2004 to see how many companies have modified their tools to accommodate some of the challenges Ulead brought to the table with this release. Given some of the big names Ulead has been displaying in their advertising, it's clear they aren't taking prisoners with the release of this application. Now quit reading and go edit something!"

"For video professionals who don't want to spend countless hours studying the minutiae of the DVD standard or complex high-end authoring systems, DVD Workshop may be just the ticket. At a list price of $299, you get a very stable and capable entry to mid-level DVD authoring solution that allows you to produce DVDs sufficient for most corporate, institutional, or educational needs."

DVD Workshop Review
" By far, DVD Workshop's strongest features were its graphics and text capabilities, based on the impressively pedigreed Ulead PhotoImpact graphics editor. We recommend DVD Workshop for those who use PhotoImpact as their image editor (and we'd even recommend PhotoImpact as an image editor, especially for Web work). The object-oriented graphics environment was simple to understand, and DVD Workshop was as flexible and powerful as any mid-level DVD authoring program we've used. Combine this with the quality of the MPEG-2 encoder and solid capture-edit-burn tools, and we had a winner all the way around. "

DVD Burning Software Round-up
Receives 5/5 stars and Editor's Choice award

"Ulead DVD Workshop is one of the most expensive packages we reviewed, and that's because it's the most complete DVD-authoring and -burning program available. We loved the large preview screen, as well as the tab-based approach to creating a project. The drag-and-drop feature made it a breeze to build slideshows and movies, delete frames, or rearrange the order of our presentation. And once our project was complete, burning to DVD took only a few clicks."
