Guide Review - Dreamweaver version 8 - Web Editing Software Customer Review

Customer Review

Dreamweaver is THE web development tool. Packed with functionality and with good support for web standards, it is almost the standard tool for web designers and developers. No-one says it is cheap and by the time that you have purchased Adobe's Dreamweaver and Photoshop, you will have felt some serious pain. But, in my opinion, if you are serious about web development, it is worth the investment, not just in cost but in the time it takes to get fully up to speed with the product.
