 Are you kidding !? TERRIBLE SOFTWARE!, 2007-10-26
Anyone who rates this software above a 2 is probably a very low end user. This software is *slower* and *buggier* (if possible) than Macromedia Studio 8.
If you're using Studio 8 please listen, don't upgrade. It's throwing away money. Flash cs3 seems to be a great product so far, but as far as dreamweaver goes there's just NO REASON to *downgrade* to CS3.
I'm a professional Software Engineer working in Web Development since 1999.

 Another great product by Adobe, 2007-09-21
Adobe really know how to please people with their products. This one is very easy to use and of course it require knowledge to produce quality results.
As far as Amazon is concern, this particular item was shipped fast. In some cases, you just have to make sure that they really have stock since the availability status doesn't update in real-time. But will definitely buy again with [...]

Web page layout can be frustrating, 2007-07-25
I like the program but web layout with Dreamweaver can be frustrating if you are familiar with the ease of layout in Adobe InDesign. Adobe should hide the limitations of HTML better and allow text and graphics to be freely placed without the use of tables. It can also be especially frustrating to format text in anything but simple ways.
I hope Adobe can better integrate InDesign functionality with Dreamweaver and also allow InDesign pages to be converted to a web page.

 Not much improvement over DW8, 2007-06-28
CS3 adds the Spry AJAX tools and a some new pre-built CSS layout templates, but in reality, similar javascript and CSS code can easily be found for free with a simple Google search. Beyond that, there really isn't much else in terms of new features over the previous Dreamweaver 8. Also, I dare say it has introduced several bugs, or maybe they are just annoying new "features".
For example, when you open up a site, half the time the entire root folder is collapsed, forcing you to have to re-open it each time. There seems to be no pattern to this behavior, sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't. Also, the root folder has this weird habit of disappearing under the local files bar after a few seconds. So if I open a site and don't un-collapse the root folder within 2 seconds, then entire thing disappears under the bar, forcing me to hit the site refresh button to get it back. VERY ANNOYING!!!!
Another thing that bothers me is the copy/paste from Word. I get a lot of documents sent to me in Word that I need to convert to HTML. DW8 did a pretty decent job of converting Word to HTML, but CS3 seems to get a lot more wrong; I actually have to do significantly more "clean up" work now when I do a cut/paste from Word, it is especially bad when it comes to converting lists when compared to DW8.
Even if the bugs were addressed in a patch, I think that overall, this is a very disappointing "upgrade", there really isn't anything compelling enough to justify moving from DW8. I would give this 5-stars if it was an upgrade from Dreamweaver MX, but as an upgrade from Dreamweaver 8, it's simply not worth your time.

 Adobe does Dreamweaver CS3 Right!, 2007-06-27
More than any other similar product I've used or attempted to use, Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 gives me the best result for the amount of time put in with the product. My search is over, I've found the software that I'm going to continue to use for future projects.
