Amazon.com Review:
Adobe has taken GoLive, its Web design and management tool, and improvedits integration with other applications, adding a number of useful extras in theprocess. In addition to the design elements of the program, GoLive 6.0 includessections devoted to Web site management and maintenance, as well as teamcollaboration.

The main working area of the program deliberately looks much like other Adobeapplications, making it easy to move between them. The main editing windowsfloat on the GoLive worktop, with palettes of functions controlling the tools.Users can now drag and stash palette tabs individually at the edge of thescreen.

The key new features of GoLive 6.0 can be divided into three areas. Under thedesign-and-develop category comes greatly improved table handling, with newediting features--particularly selection--and increased control of HTML code.Adobe has also integrated GoLive more closely with Photoshop, Illustrator, andLiveMotion.

Manage functions govern how several people working on same aspect of a sitehandle different versions and revisions. The revision list is a good example, asit offers full details of who made certain changes to what, along with the timethe changes were entered.

Finally, there's the deploy function, for when you finally launch your site.This feature offers new and improved support for WML authoring, writing fordisplay on WAP devices, XML, QuickTime, and more of the growing family of Webstandards.

Overall, GoLive is a worthwhile improvement if you're thinking about upgradingfrom a previous version. For newbies, make sure you're serious about Web sitemanagement, as this is a heavyweight tool. --Simon Williams

Amazon.com Product Description:
The Adobe GoLive 6.0 visual authoring program has a lot to offer Web designers, not the least of which is the addition of the Adobe Web Workgroup Server. Building on previous versions of GoLive, this release delivers powerful site management and collaboration capabilities, wireless authoring, and unparalleled support for incorporating print and video content. GoLive 6.0 also adds features that facilitate collaboration and help creative professionals easily develop content and rapidly deliver assets to a variety of outlets.

The Web Workgroup Server site management and collaboration tool lets multiple users track changes--as well as share and manage files--with ease. It adds version control and side-by-side comparison capabilities, including the ability to roll back to previous versions. Designers will also find full support for any WebDAV-enabled application in GoLive 6.0, including support for programs such as Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and Macromedia Dreamweaver.

Other development features include a QuickTime 5.0 editing environment with streaming conversion and optimization capabilities. There's also a visual authoring environment utilizing video, audio, SWF, and SVG with support for W3C standards (including SMIL). GoLive 6.0 even adds the ability to deliver database-driven content and native support for common dynamic scripting languages, including PHP, ASP, and JSP. And, as always, GoLive integrates tightly with Adobe's entire family of professional design products.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - disappointing-a mistake
Unfortunately, I purchased this program because of Adobe's reputation. Maybe Photoshop, Illustrator and Acrobat are great programs, but adobe has really struck out with golive.it has a clunky interface. the ftp browser hangs on me everytime I upload.
the interface is not intuitive. when I edit pages, strange glitches occur.Shareware programs are easier to use, although not as feature rich as golive. Most of the experienced web designers I have talked to recommend dreamweaver. it looks like ... Read More

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A great web application for designers
If you love photoshop, illustrator, InDesign... you should use GoLive for your webs.Some will say this application is difficult to learn and overburdened with adobe-style tool palettes, and this is fair criticism.If you are a photoshop user and have spent the many hours and weeks it takes to become proficient at using Adobe's GUI, then move to GoLive and you will quickly find yourself at home.

If you consider yourself more a designer than coder, and you like designing with Adobe software, ... Read More

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - A VERY UN-intuitiveproduct!!
THis is the worst of the lot. I had used Adobe's PageMill to make tons of websites but now that I've upgraded everything to OSX on my computer, I thought it would be a good idea to do that with my web design program.
Buzz,...big mistake!!
Go Live is SO complicated, it's impossible for me to put together a website.
I can't seem to figure out anything in this program.
I've been long time user of Photoshop, Illustrator and AfterEffects, but GoLive is destined to go in the round file.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Much too much of a good thing
If you're a Mac user I presume you have little interest in unneccessary complexity--and GoLive delivers a level of complexity & difficulty that would make Microsoft proud.

If designing web pages is your life this may be what you need.And believe me, it WILL be your life for months after you start using this application.You'll get to know every member of the GoLive support team on a first-name basis.

For the rest of us, please, Adobe, make a GoLive Elements program or bring back PageMill.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Worthless.Money better spent elsewhere
The Adobe team has a way of creating complexities for no particular reason.GoLive drowns in its own muli-tier, reverse-logical design.The development team has obviously intended this program to be used by those totally unfamiliar with the concept of straightforward thinking.Every moment using this software is agonizing and frustrating.It boggles the mind to even imagine the possibility of an Adobe team with usability as part of their gameplan.Please stay far away from GoLive.
