Aside from the fact that this program is full of bugs (for example, you create a page, then view it in preview and it comes out all scrambled up), Namo's customer service is non-existent. They have an alleged registered user's forum on their site, but the software won't allow you to type in a question--and when I tried *on several occasions* to point this out and to get my questions answered from Namo customer service and technical support, I got no response. Nothing.

This program is waste!! I created my website with this, and it took me almost 3 months because this program wouldn't work properly..(At all!), and would blow me out of it if I just tried to save something. Nothing worked! If I needed to just publish an edited page to my website, supposedly, you can just select to publish the edited pages. Well, when I tried doing that, it blew me out of the program. So, I tried to psychronize the pages. Well, when I tried doing that, it blew me out of the program again. So, I had to publish the entire thing all over again, just to get one page updated. At 99%, it blew me out again, and of course no changes were made on the site!! Total junk, total joke, TOTAL WASTE OF TIME & MONEY!! | 1 | Today | Namo is nifty but not for neophytes
I want to make it clear that Namo WebEditor is not for people who are "wet behind the ears" and barely understand the concept of Copy and Paste. Namo WebEditor is easy to use for those who feel like they have at least grown past the dazed and confused, clueless newbie stage. It is possible to find dummied-down web editors out there that are even easier to use than Namo WebEditor, but you'll usually have to give up a lot and put up with a lot. You'll probably get bloated, slow-loading code that may not be cross-browser compatible, and if the program allows you to access to the HTML, it will probably be limited and the program might mangle any code you insert. It's usually a pain to add or delete text and images with those programs since the pages will not adjust automatically like they will when using Tables with Namo WebEditor. After a while, you'll start to feel the invisible shackles of those babyfied web editors and you'll ache for something better. Namo WebEditor is that something better. It gives us the freedom and power we desire without sacrificing user-friendliness. It doesn't assume you are a rocket scientist, but it doesn't treat you like you're in diapers either. If you require a boat load of generic templates to choose from so your web site looks exactly like 10,000 other web sites out there, Namo WebEditor may not be for you since it doesn't come with that many templates at this time. But, if you hate the cookie-cutter look and want to create your own pages, Namo's WYSIWYG drag and drop editor makes it easy. I created my own pages with Namo WebEditor from scratch and it was fun, not frustrating. I designed a page that I was satisfied with (I call it my sourdough page) and used that page to make all of the others. You only have to create one page from scratch and then use that page as a template. Some newbies try to create every page from scratch which is silly and I can see why they would be frustrated. I don't have room here to mention all of the things I have written on my Web Design Deodorizer page about why I love Namo Web Editor, but I'll try to hit the highlights. One really cool feature that could be overlooked is the Document Information dialog box. It shows the total file size of the page (including the file sizes of images), it gives you a word count, and it tells you approximately how fast the page will load using different connection speeds. Even a chronically negative person would have to admit that is a very useful feature. If you've used other web editors, the copy and paste abilities of Namo's WYSIWYG editor might shock you. Many other web editors only copy plain text (stripped of all attributes), but Namo WebEditor allows you to copy the style, font, color, links, paragraph style, background color, table properties, cell properties, and so on. After you copy and paste using Namo WebEditor a few times, your old web editor may seem awkward and outdated. Namo WebEditor also has a built-in spell checker, multiple undo/redo, case changer (upper case, lower case, sentence case, and more), HTML verification, and it will also clean up the HTML for you if you want. Namo WebEditor not only has find and replace, but it also has global find and replace which is great for doing things such as updating the copyright date on every page. If you have a lot of pages, you can change in seconds what it would normally take days to change by hand. On top of everything else, Namo WebEditor has an instant access, color coded HTML editor. Of course, you never have to use it, but for people who know at least a little HTML or those who just need to add special code to a page (such as code for an advertisement), it's such a nice thing to have. I've only had a few questions since owning Namo WebEditor and I got fast answers at their forum every time. The whole Namo experience has been enjoyable so far and I don't think things are going to change any time soon since I've had Namo WebEditor for over a year now. It's a great product for creating and maintaining a web site and unlike some other web editors, it doesn't require a monster computer to run. Namo WebEditor worked as smoothly on my old 233MHz computer as it did on the 2.60GHz computer that followed. That's impressive on it's own, but add in all of the other things along with the affordable price and you're looking at a must-have web design product that almost anyone with a PC can enjoy. | 5 | Today | Terrible Company
From day one this software has been a nightmare with nothing working right, a so-called beginners guide that guides you into a mess and more questions than it answers. Add to this the worst possible support where you cannot ever speak with anyone, and have to rely on a forum or e-mails and wait and waste time awaiting a reply which is normally very short and requires numerous follow ups to have any idea what they are saying. Stay away from this garbage unless you want a lot of headaches or have a lot of intuitive skills to wind your way through this thing. | 1 | Today | The Bottom line, and low-down from a newbee!!
Hello, First let me state this: There is a reason Web-Designers and Web-Masters sometimes get paid hundreds to thousands of dollars for their services. Web-Design is a skilled "Technical Form Of Art"! I'm new to Web-design, and my purchase of Namo 5.5 is my first such program. I know little of HTML and such... and I will be making my first website. ( I'm so new at first I did not even know what a table is). After researching about all the web-design programs out there I decided on Namo because of its price point, its "Beginners" ease of use, and it seemed like a "professional" software program I could grow into. I HAVE NOT BEEN DISAPPOINTED! You should visit Namo's website and view its movie telling all about it. Also, you "don't" have to know any HTML at all to use this program - none, thank god! But, a word of caution to the New-bee's like me. Like I stated above " Web-Design is a skilled "Technical Form Of Art" there is a learning curve to deal with, but its well worth it! I have had the program for about three weeks now. I started with a pre-made theme, but I'm now heavily modifying it. Because of this I am needing some online support from time to time. The support is done on message boards (there is no phone support). But you do get answers to your questions rather quickly (same day so far), works good for me. Another reviewer stated that after 3-days he gave up and still had no web-site -- no kidding, what did he expect! Namo is not a cheep web-builder, its an amazing tool. Don't get me wrong, you could by using Namo's pre-made themes have a web-site built in a day (that's making no changes). But my golly-gee when you start to see WHAT YOU CAN ALL DO with this tool, you won't be able to contain yourself form making changes. This program is simply exciting to learn how to use! I would suggest that you make a practice pre-made website and use it to go thought the "Beginner's Guide" instruction book. It walks you though beginner web-design and "management" step by step. Don't just read it but actually "do" what the instructions are explaining on your practice website. This will greatly get you up to speed, end confusion, in your beginners learning curve. What has surprised me the most was just how much and involved the making of a "good looking and good working" web-site can be. Web-Building and Web "Management" of your site is both an art and Technical skill. What I have seen, Namo is up to the toughest of professional job's, along with its ability to bring along first time New-bee's in site design and management. I'm glad I got it! | 5 | Today | Wasted my money and 3 days of my time!!!
Yes, I read all the reviews before buying. I needed something simple with absolutely no programming involved. Since I didn't like any of the templatesthat came with the software, I decided to build my own. Well, to sum it up - after 3 very frustrating days of trying to build my own template, I accomplished zero. I read the manual from start to finish. It is VERY poorly written for anyone who wants to do any of their own designing in Namo. In fact, after getting on their website and looking at the forum topics, I discovered that you CAN'T build your own template for your entire site. THAT VERSION IS GOING TO BE RELEASED IN MARCH 2004!!!!!!!!!! As soon as I discovered this, I went to Best Buy and purchased WebEasy Pro which is much cheaper. It is also much easier to learn and extremely user friendly with a super help section. I would highly recommend that if you want to make your own design in ANY way - do not purchase NAMO! Buy WebEasy Pro which is cheaper and far superior to Namo! Thanks Namo for wasting my time and money. Just wish I could get a refund! | 2 | Today | Awesome Product!
As many had praised this one - This software is really a good one. I tried Dreamweaver MX 2004 and FrontPage 2003. As I am not into HTML (I used to write some when it was in version 3 or something in the pre-DHTML days ) and am more into graphic designing my sites - I decided that Drewamweaver is not my tool and definitely not in my budget limits. FP2003 however is closer in feel and cost but NAMO WE5.5 has all the features I was looking for in such a tool and in a much more convenient way of doing it. Just a small example of GUI design: in FrontPage 2003, in order to link inserted anchors with a hyperlink I had to open a dialog box of the anchors and select them , in Namo the dropdown list of anchors is just below the hyperlink input text. many many more similar features are better thought of in NAMO's. One feature which really knocked me down is Smart Buttons: you can force the software to automatically create navigation bars and banners form your OWN CUSTOMIZED graphics - unlike XARA WebStyle which I also have nad like. In Namo, unlike Xara - This will be done for all the Site's pages by just copying the HTML code and pasting into each file - the software will automatically modify the graphics by their location in the site ! There is a tutorial to show you how - 100 % ! The price - oh the Price this is where the program really shines |! you really get a full blown professional software bundled with all the goodies you will ever need for as low as 49 US $ (educational) PROS: - very fast GUI & Operation - Does everything it says it does - well. - Supports CSS - Graphic WebSite Builder. - Site manager - Support Layouts - All the bread and vutter stuff. - WebCanvas is a really good vector graphics editor - Easy to use. - Many templates and graphics - Many , Many more features - A good HTML editor. CONS: - Templates are not very usefull (design is too childish) but this is not a handicap if you are into designing your own websites. You get an excellent package and there is the educational option which allows everybody to buy it for less. | 5 | Today | Great Product...
