"Wow! I made a mistake on my zip code and ended up placing a wrong order and a correct one as well. I immediately emailed my error to Creation Engine and within a few minutes they wrote back that the error had been corrected-- no problem. Thanks! It's not often a problem like that gets solved so quickly."

"Everthing from placing order to shipping delivery went very smooth. I The academic affiliation proof took 2 business days after I sent my ID by email, but the shipping came on time for 2 business day option I chose. I am very satisfied with the seller. I would be returning to this seller for future purchases of software. "

"I was searching for a good price on some software needed for a project and was very happy to find Creation Engine Online. I received a great price and the buying/validation process was easy and got a very quick response. I had the software a couple days quicker than an item I ordered on Amazon a few days earlier than the Creation Engine order..
I would not hesitate to do business with Creation Engine again."

"This was the second piece of software I ordered from Creation Engine. Once again, the service was prompt and accurate and delivery was much faster than I had expected. This company provides a great service to educators."

“The following is an email from the Education Sales Manager of Avid regarding the Sibelius software purchased by quirkycolleen:

The product is fully-functional immediately, and they have 30 days to provide the info that Identit-E requires. They should be able to use the software right now, so I don't know why they would say they can't use it.

Creation Engine has also tried to contact the client in order to help her with any registration problems she might be having, but the client has not replied back.”

"Their site was easy to use, I thought the download process of several days was ridiculous. I have downloaded many software programs and it is typically instant. I understand needing to check the student access, but it should not take several days. After I talked to reallusion I got the software quickly (I needed it for a project) and it was good. They did respond to my inquiries somewhat slowly but I did get a response. I have the software, I am happy and all is well.
***************************************************************
When I placed the order I sat there and waited for it to download and did not receive any action.
I saw the paypal notice in my activity list and did not realize that it was a bill and something that needed to be submitted.
Typically when I order something and pay with paypal, the funds are automatically deducted and the order is fulfilled.
I have never had to go in and tell paypal to go ahead and fulfill the amount requested. This extra step delayed my order, and sat in my transaction list with me unaware of any action I needed to take.
When I did finally figure out that I actually had to release the funds, I took care of it.I got an reply saying that I would receive my download in 6-8 days!
THAT is where I came unglued and contacted the company to see if I could request getting the software more quickly.
NEVER have I had to wait on downloaded software to take as long as a hard copy. Reallusion was quick to act and I got my copy much quicker than that (as you can see from your timeline) but had I not been aggressive would I have really gotten it in the 6-8 day time frame that your reply box stated? I should hope not, but that is what you "told" me in your communication online.
THAT is where I am getting my statements from.
I am happy now, I have my software and I got it much more quickly than was stated.
With your process being atypical of a paypal transaction and the communication possibly being different than the timeline you typically do, my frustration was justified.
I would most likely order from you again, but if I am "told" 6-8 days again, I will once again be aggressive. And I will know if there is another next time, to release the funds from paypal immediately instead of waiting."

“Here's the timeline for this specific order:

1. Order was received on 9/22/11 at 10:30 AM Pacific Time.
2. PayPal payment requested on 9/22/11 at 11:14 AM.
3. PayPal payment received on 9/23/11 at 6:56 AM.
4. The order was processed on 9/23/11 and emailed to the customer directly from Reallusion on 9/23 at 10:49 AM.

Based on the timeline, we're not sure where the client is coming up with a "download process of several days".”

"This was one of the only sites that I could get SolidWorks from and they had it readily available and were able to overnight it to me at a very reasonable price!"
