I recently heard a pod-cast (Basic Brewing Radio) where they were reviewing brewing software and BeerSmith was one that was reviewed. I have to say if faired well. There may be some constructive feed back that can be gained from the review (i.e. where BeerSmith did well, what could be improved).
Before buying BeerSmith over a year ago, I had tried several brewing programs to decide which to spend my money on. It seemed that BeerSmith had the best set of features and nice customization for my own brewing setup. After listening to the review, I tried the SW (that shall remain nameless) that seemed to get a lot of reviews/praise from the listeners again. After evaluating it, I still think BeerSmith is the best all around even if others may have the upper hand in some areas.
In a shameless attempt to get a new version of BeerSmith released, I do want to mention that other softwares are closing the gap and there has been some new releases and new brewing programs since 1.3 was released. From reading the suggestions and news forums, it sounds like a lot of new features have already been implemented that might broaden this gap in a new version. Regardless of when the next version is released, thanks for all the hard work already spent on BeerSmith! Being a software engineer, I know that these things take time and there is always one more thing to add/tweak.
