Two years in, by every metric, this Mac seems to be doing better than my personal history, and handily beating the average for coconutBattery users.

I've been using DaVinci Resolve for over ten years, on both Mac and PC. It is one of the most powerful non-linear editors I've used.

junggai

Ulysses: Writing App user

I know much information given by this app is available at different places in the Finder... but to have all of them gathered in one place is so useful and easier. Plus fan speed, temperatures, etc are not easily available somewhere else. The cleaning part is well-done and risk-free. The uninstaller is a must-have but if you want to leave useless files in your mac (it won't hurt, but uses HD space). SSD speed test is great too. All-in-all a good, simple, risk-free and useful app. Pricing is correct.

Apple's Spotlight is to FTP what TextEdit is to an advanced word processor.

For me, FTP is a must have.

I've been using DaVinci Resolve for over ten years, on both Mac and PC. It is one of the most powerful non-linear editors I've used. I started on Premiere Pro and I feel Resolve is every bit as powerful. The coloration tools are spectacular and sound management is excellent. This app does have a steep learning curve, but once mastered it is a powerhouse.

This app deserves more praise. I get a substantial brightness boost on my 16'' MBP M1 Max. It's essential if I want to use my MBP outdoors in the sunlight and it's great to just have a beautiful bright view while indoors.

junggai

Ulysses: Writing App user

I know much information given by this app is available at different places in the Finder... but to have all of them gathered in one place is so useful and easier. Plus fan speed, temperatures, etc are not easily available somewhere else. The cleaning part is well-done and risk-free. The uninstaller is a must-have but if you want to leave useless files in your mac (it won't hurt, but uses HD space). SSD speed test is great too. All-in-all a good, simple, risk-free and useful app. Pricing is correct.

Apple's Spotlight is to FTP what TextEdit is to an advanced word processor. I've been using FTP for several years now: it's search capabilities are unmatched and I've never had a problem with their support; once they responded only after a couple of weeks but to tell me that my problem was solved, that it would be integrated in the forthcoming update and gave me a link to its beta version. For me, FTP is a must have.

The main thing I wanted to achieve with a clipboard app was the ability to open it with a shortcut, and then immediately paste with another shortcut.

First time user, and I am very impressed with this application. The developers have created a truly well designed, well thought-out, and immensely helpful app for users of all skill levels. This is exactly the type of utility app that I have been searching for.

This application is an outstanding tool that I use , the most convenient, reliable and safe Mac utility that I have ever come across , the only app that doesn’t automatically delete unnecessary files from system like others but let me review and delete manually to assure what I am deleting, stunning UI crafted , it let me see CPU load , login items and chases with detailed battery information, highly recommend it as similar Mac utilities all suck , I really enjoy having this tool on my Mac 

I purchased CleanMyMac X and was immediately impressed with all the features and its ease of use… I emailed MacPaw customer service and within two days they responded with directions. For me the software is terrific, but I am blown away with the great service.

I've looked high and low. This application has replaced the defunct DragThing on my Macs starting with macOS Catalina. It feels sooo different, yet for the me the only viable alternative.

I can write anywhere because Ulysses syncs my projects across Mac devices, iPhone, and iPad. The app stays simple while still giving me the organization and markdown flow I need for daily writing.

After trying software alternatives, I can say Logic is the best for the price range. I have gotten around 100 solid productions out of Logic, older files still open, and updates have improved issues I ran into.

My primary hobby is playing video games, and I may play a game this year and then the sequel three years from now. By the time the sequel comes out, I usually forget precisely what happened in the first game, so I always write down what happens in the games I play and store them in a database (Ninox) so I can refer to them later.

A great product with great customer service: a few days ago, I sent them a feature suggestion. Yesterday (yes, yesterday was Christmas Day), I got a response, and a preview of their next version that will include the suggested new feature. Now THAT'S what I call customer service!

In anticipation for macOS Catalina's killing off 32-bit app support I needed to find a new FTP tool replacement. After researching several utilities, I decided on Commander One Pro and I am really impressed with it. It is fast, easy to understand, and 64-bit. I am so happy they are not doing the subscription model like others are.

Have been using this app since version 2. Never let me down. A must-have if you deal with Windows or Linux users on a regular basis, because BetterZip filters out .DS_Store files and other Mac-specific clutter.

Apple's Spotlight is to FTP what TextEdit is to an advanced word processor. I've been using FTP for several years now: it's search capabilities are unmatched and I've never had a problem with their support; once they responded only after a couple of weeks but to tell me that my problem was solved, that it would be integrated in the forthcoming update and gave me a link to its beta version. For me, FTP is a must have.

I cleared over 30 GB of duplicate files that had accumulated for years. It took manual review time, but far less time than trying to compare scattered files by hand.

After using Logic Pro X, it is hard to migrate to any other music software. The MIDI capabilities are second to none, and the ability to compose music in all styles makes it one of the best DAWs.

The main thing I wanted to achieve with a clipboard app was the ability to open it with a shortcut, and then immediately paste with another shortcut. It wasn’t totally clear in the description if I was able to do that, but I figured there was a good chance it would, and at least the other features would be useful.

This application continues to make my life easier. I lost some valuable files… with this tool I was able to find what I needed in some archive zip files I had fortunately saved a couple of years ago. The ability to have a commander-type interface makes file management fast and easy. I consider it an essential member of my data toolbox.

Works perfectly, I can search through nearly 1TB of files (almost 200,000 of them) in a matter of seconds. I've never found anything else to compare with it, not DEVONthink or Yojimbo or Evernote or Leap or Yep any other program. It searches through my files perfectly, it ranks the results, it previews the files. It does what I want perfectly.

Common Questions

After payment, Cosmiq emails your license or activation details with product-specific instructions. All licenses are dispatched by Cosmiq — not the software publisher, so expect your delivery email from Cosmiq. For Cosmiq-packaged editions, future updates should be obtained from Cosmiq to help maintain compatibility and activation status. Fulfilled order details are also available in your Order History.

It depends on the product and publisher terms. Some licenses are single-device, while others allow multiple activations. Always check the product page and official license terms for the exact limit.

Update eligibility varies by product. Some licenses include ongoing updates, while others cover only a specific major version or term. Review the product listing and publisher policy before purchase.

Digital license orders are generally treated as final once activation details are delivered or used. If you run into an activation issue, contact support with your order email and error details so we can help resolve it.

No. Cosmiq is an independent reseller unless explicitly stated otherwise on a product listing. If you prefer to buy directly from the publisher, you can always purchase from the official vendor site.
