Latest reviews of Wolfram Corporate Finance Professional Assistant app for iPhone and iPad

Poorly Developed
In the Relocation Calculator function, it isnt possible to enter font into the space for the 2nd city. Only the numerical keyboard shows up with a greatly exaggerated space bar and it is impossible to use the standard qwerty keyboard. For an app that costs $9.99, one would expect the developers to not miss such a major flaw, especially when this same function can be accessed online for free. It raises doubts about the accuracy of the functions within this app and Wolframs other apps as well. How many mistakes have been made that havent been noticed yet? Mathematica and Wolfram Alpha are great. I hope this apps quality of work isnt the beginning of a trend. I would greatly appreciate a refund or a bug fix.
Stunning Waste of Money
Wow Wolfram - Really?!?!??? Thought I could trust you guys not to rip me off. This app is a complete waste of money. All of these calculations are easily performed using a spreadsheet - and a spreadsheet is a lot more flexible than this POS. I cannot in good conscience recommend this to anybody.
Unfortunate
This is Wolfram slicing the bologna a little too thin. Not many calculations (ROA, ROI, ROS, etc all missing). Interesting segmentation of W/A calculation engine, but $9.99 is about $9 too high for this app. Id request a refund if it were possible. Disappointing.
Finance
I use this app all the time for finance. I wish it had more hedging options.
