Mastercook 15 Recipe PC

Ive been a user of MasterCook for a decade or more. Years ago, serious development stopped on the software, and they converted to an annual subscription model at about $30/year. I was annoyed but inertia kept me with them. The latest news is that MasterCook 2020 is due this month, and the new cost will be $100 to $125 (or more) per year. This is another example, like Quicken or MS Office 365, of companies taking mature software, converting it to the SaaS (Software as a Service) model, and milking what users remain. After considerable research, I have converted to Paprika Recipe Manager 3, which seamlessly imported all 500 of my MasterCook Recipes. Paprika has every single feature that I wanted - and more. Plus, its much simpler to use, even on multiple devices. The direct import of recipes from websites is particularly robust. I have zero association of Paprika, btw.

I love this product! So useful!

This version of MasterCook replaced an older version. My only problem is that the images I use in the recipes disappear and are replaced by a Pictures on CD statement. That is most aggravating when you have as many recipes as I do. While customer service has tried to help, nothing has worked.

Just received this in the mail this week. I have windows 10. Installed right away and it went in beautifully. have been using it for about 4 days. putting recipes in my cook book and it hasnt given me a problem yet. The button for add to mastercook would not install on internet exployer so i had to use my firefox . works great for downloading.I would highly recommend this program for anyone that likes their cookbooks

This is the third version of MasterCook Ive owned. I started years ago with version 4. I updated to Version 8 several years ago and now version 15 to go along with Windows 10.

My wife love it

Love this program. Lets you keep all your favorite recipes in one place. Easy to add recipes. Great way to share recipes with family and friends.

This Computerized format for organizing my recipes for my family has proven to be very effective. I have looked into it, and most companies want you to purchase several copies for resale to others for a profit, but I have just been interested in putting some old recipes from my family together in a format that would allow me to print them out and put in a binder of my choice, and create as many as 1 or more without having to sign a contract for 100 or more for publishing. Very easy to navigate within formats provided and can plug nutritional information and other pertinent information on each recipe. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to do a small version or prototype without publishing. Very Nice ..

Used Master Cook since version 4, still a great tool

I bought this specifically because I can input all my family recipes on my PC, utilizing full keyboard & mouse, and then access them down in the kitchen using my iPad. True, that additional access requires an annual subscription, but well worth it.
