"Been using Aspire since 2009 and it is constantly being updated and additional features added. Their upgrade policy is second to none when you upgrade from VCarve to Aspire. Their forum where actual users answer your questions is the best I've ever dealt with. They have numerous tutorials that are updated with each new version. Once you learn the software it is a joy to use."
