ACDSee Pro attempts to provide a fast, flexible platform for managing your photos, and has been rebuilt specifically for Mac. The focus of the program is the browsing, viewing, cataloging and printing of images. This makes ACDSee a refreshingly simply program in terms of just viewing and organizing your photos. At the same time, however, it feels rather limited, especially compared to programs such as Picasa and iPhoto.

For example, there are no Geotagging options and no online integration features to help get your photos online. However, it does have a very lightweight and easy to use feel about it. The interface is divided into the 'View' and 'Manage' buttons in the top right, which are self explanatory. Use View when you want to view photos and Manage when you want to organize them. You can also set ACDSee Pro to automatically detect when your camera is connected for automatic retrieval of your images. Initially you get a two-day free trial but you request a key by email, you can extend this to February 19th 2010.

ACDSee is both refreshingly quick and lightweight for a photo management package, but it lacks the online and geotagging features that we've come to expect from photo apps nowadays.

Freeway Pro is the more advanced version of Freeway Express and offers more powerful import options such as full-resolution PSDs, TIFFs, EPS and Illustrator files. Freeway Pro also features Master Pages to cut down on the amount of time you have to repeat copying and pasting code things such as Headers and Footers. Unlike the Express version though, Freeway Pro requires much more coding knowledge to get the best out of it.

Like the Express version, Freeway Pro will handle the conversion to web-ready formats, leaving the original images untouched, simplifies the lay out of your website by allowing you to drag, drop and embed images and content and publish your work as clean HTML or upload to your FTP server. Any changes you make to your site will be automatically uploaded.

Freeway Pro allows you to embed Flash, QuickTime and YouTube content and more in seconds, and facilitates the addition of purchasing via your site courtesy of an e-commerce wizard. If there's anything missing that you'd like to see in Freeway Pro, you can also extend it with add-ons such as CSS menus, embedded Google Maps, or Blogger templates.

Freeway Pro is firmly aimed at professionals and the help documentation is intimidating. One thing you won't find however is a way to a multiple undo function though so be careful to save your work as you go along.

Freeway Express is an amazingly simple but deceptively powerful web design application.
