"Incredible deal. So many great apps for one price."
What do you like best about Setapp?

Great colletion of apps. Easy to find, install, and update them. Time-saving and very useful. And a great price!

What do you dislike about Setapp?

I do wish the iOS apps were included in the main subscription, but I understand why it is charged separately.

What problems is Setapp solving and how is that benefiting you?

There are utilities and apps within SetApp that I can't live without on a daily basis. I'm able to do things more quickly and more efficiently.

"Use apps from Setapp every day"
What do you like best about Setapp?

The selection is pretty great and they add to it fairly often. It covers a range of categories, for designers, productivity, Mac system tools, video editing, writing, and many more.

What do you dislike about Setapp?

The annual subscription cost is still a little high for me. Also, on very rare occasions they remove an app from their library, which can be very frustrating if it's an app you've incorporated into your workflow.

What problems is Setapp solving and how is that benefiting you?

Sometimes you need the right tool and the ones you have just don't always cut it. I've found apps to solve those specific instances but also found new apps that I wasn't aware of, which have broadened my capabilities and improved what I can produce at work.

"Great set of MacBook apps & tools"
What do you like best about Setapp?

The wide array of different tools. And the fact that they keep adding new applications.

What do you dislike about Setapp?

Nothing so far that I dislike about Setapp, but I will update if I come across something.

What problems is Setapp solving and how is that benefiting you?

I don't have to scout the entire internet myself for apps or tools that help me: I see Setapp as a curated set of applications. It feels like I can trust their collection more.

"A different kind of subscription"
What do you like best about Setapp?

Setapp is a software subscription that allows Mac users to access software for day to day issues, without breaking the bank on the most recent updates or versions. I like that I can try things out and only use what's most useful to me right now, so I don't have hundreds of useless programs lurking around. It's easy to download and I can keep it on my navigation bar to go directly to the site or load what I've already chosen. While it was not an issue when I first signed up, at this point in time, I'm glad that it is a Ukraine-based company and I can feel that I am supporting Ukraine.

What do you dislike about Setapp?

The main drawback is that I sometimes forget to check what's new and I might miss something that could be truly helpful, or spend time noodling around what's potentially interesting, but doesn't really solve a problem.That latter issue is my own, though and not Setapp's.

What problems is Setapp solving and how is that benefiting you?

Some of the software helps me declutter and keep my computer clear of junk. Others that I use, are a VPN, a video editor, enhance my presentations.

"Productivity in one place"
What do you like best about Setapp?

Its ease of use and affordability. It just works.

What do you dislike about Setapp?

The absence of personalised content. It should make suggestions based on past downloads.

What problems is Setapp solving and how is that benefiting you?

Setapp provides a unique set of tools for the Mac that makes it a true asset for work. From notes to meeting management, it is an excellent fount that the intrepid professional must visit.

"Great multi-purpose app"
What do you like best about Setapp?

One of the notable advantages of their platform is the constant influx of new apps that they seamlessly integrate. The continuous addition of fresh applications enhances the overall user experience, keeping it vibrant and dynamic. Furthermore, the platform's versatility extends beyond its native ecosystem, allowing users to effortlessly extend these apps to iOS devices as well. This cross-platform compatibility opens up a world of possibilities, enabling users to enjoy a superior experience across multiple devices and operating systems.

What do you dislike about Setapp?

I dislike that some apps are removed from the app store. It doesn't happen often but if it's an app you heavy rely on it can suck. It would also be nice to extend to iOS devices/apps without having to pay an additional fee.

What problems is Setapp solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have 16 apps installed that help with various things, from renaming files, to organizing my menu bar, remote connection to my Mac, improving my system's performance or keeping my Mac awake when needed.

"Setapp saves me time and money!"
What do you like best about Setapp?

The best thing about Setapp is the large number of high-quality apps that are available to subscribers. I also like being able to test apps without committing to purchasing them as stand-alone items.

What do you dislike about Setapp?

The only apparent downside, in my opinion, is that some bundled apps don't update as quickly as their standalone counterparts. Usually, this difference is only a matter of days, so it's not a big deal to me.

What problems is Setapp solving and how is that benefiting you?

Setapp allows me to install apps that I use daily and apps that I only need infrequently. The quality of the apps is fantastic, and the range of offerings is impressive. Apps are updated regularly, and there are many that have companion apps for handheld devices. I love the fact that instead of having to manage subscriptions for a pile of apps, I only need to manage one subscription, which is very reasonably priced.

"Decent solution but inflexible and buggy pricing implementation."
What do you like best about Setapp?

Easy to purchase for the whole team. Save time.

What do you dislike about Setapp?

We purchased the team version, however, due to the team churn, our seat has decreased 33%. However, Setapp cannot provide a refund or reserve future credits. And even if we have extra seats, we still need to purchase extra devices for the existing users. Also, we encountered 1 bug. We were unable to assign a seat to a member who had expired the invitation before. What's more bizarre is that we first canceled next year's subscription and contacted customer service to decrease our seats. We see our seat is decreased (no refund BTW), however, the subscription is toggled to renew again. I wanted to recommend this to other teams. However, the entire pricing drama is depressing. Not professional.
