CrystalMaker 7.2.1 for Mac (February 2007)
tucows five-cows rating
Journal of Chemical Education
CrystalMaker 6.3 (November 2004)
"The potential for CrystalMaker's contribution to educational efforts cannot be overstated. With respect to operating systems, do not overlook this program because you do not own a Mac."
"CrystalMaker is an excellent, highly intuitive program with extraordinary graphics and incredible functionality and versatility. It is a must have for those serious about crystal structure manipulation and presentation."

CrystalMaker 6.0 (February 2003)
"If you're a crystallographer, it's time to upgrade to CrystalMaker 6.0. If you're a science instructor, it's no exaggeration to say this program alone would justify buying a Mac to produce materials for chemistry or physics lessons. It handles all crystal-display tasks with grace, and it's a bargain." "Pros: Easy to use; great performance; excellent use of OS X features. Cons: None".

Macworld 17th Annual Editor's Choice Awards
CrystalMaker 5.0 (December 2001)
"CrystalMaker Software spent two years rewriting their molecular modeling program, CrystalMaker 5.0. The result is a program that has multiple windows and views, the ability to create more atoms and bonds, and better performance in Mac OS X's Classic mode."

CrystalMaker 5.0 (November 2001)
"the interface is gorgeous and is never confusing... all of the molecules and crystals I looked at were crisp and clean - the 3D rendering is particularly impressive. Another cool, unique feature of CrystalMaker is the ability to output Quicktime VR - so with the click of a button you've got a QTVR image. "

Journal of Chemical Education
CrystalMaker 4.1 (July 2001)
"An extremely powerful sensation is to observe the three dimensional view on the screen, in either stereo mode, while changing its orientation. You feel as if you are inside the structure displayed on the screen!"
"These applications are highly recommended for anyone who has an interest in viewing or examining molecular or crystal structures. The bottom line is that the more expensive CrystalMaker is also more versatile."

Scientific Computing World
CrystalMaker 4.1 (March 2001)
"A more ambitious Mac program is CrystalMaker. Its rendered graphics, and the many display options, are up with the best of the PC crystallography programs... but the ability to save animations gives CrystalMaker a further edge."
- Ray Girvan

Macworld CrystalMaker 4.0 (April 2000)
"CrystalMaker is easy to learn, and includes the most comprehensive and best-produced manual I've seen for a science product in years, but oddly for scientific software, its real attraction is aesthetic. It makes the best-looking crystal structures imaginable. Special attention to reflection, shading effects, and depth fading puts CrystalMaker ahead of competing programs for vivid display, and its floating 3D representations (viewed with red/blue glasses) are dazzling as well as instructive."

Crystallography News
CrystalMaker 1.1 (March 1996)
"Mac loving crystallographers with a fast graphics card will love CrystalMaker... It will also be useful for research workers since it displays structures so well. conclusion: Very good value for money if you have a Mac with a large screen and a fast graphics card and you want a 'user friendly' package for exploring crystal structures, with an option to make demonstration movies.
- Kate Crennell

TerraNova
CrystalMaker 1.1 (May 1995)
"CrystalMaker enabled me to do nearly all the things I would have hoed for and is clearly a useful research tool. It could also be used as a teaching aid in mineralogy and crystallography; you can generate QuickTime movies which could provide 'canned' demonstrations or use in lecture or practical classes. The package is also sufficiently intuitive to allow students of any level to use it as a stand alone teaching aid."
