ROBOFORM - Have you won more since you starting using it?

Options
I guess what im trying to say is, does it really make things that quicker and easier and does it work? ive been comping for about 10 months now but have suddenly thought hang on a minute, could i be entering more if i downloaded roboform?

So.... Obviously its easier as you dont have to physically type but i am a fast typer and entering comps doesnt seem to take me a lot of time, but if i could save any time at all i will give it a go.

Also ive been on the site, it looks like i have to pay for it? did you lot pay for it or do you use the trial version?

And lastly, just for the benefit of not being told to move this to the compers inn or discussion thread, have you won more comps since you started using it?

  • I can certainly enter quicker, and therefore enter more comps because of it. Thus increase my chances. I'd also say I've won more since I downloaded it.

    There's a free trial, then you have to pay (or it limits how many passwords you can keep). It's well worth the money though. I've paid to have it on my laptop as well now (you don't pay as much for the 2nd + licences)

    I haven't got it as I can touch type. Also, from what others say on here, it will not fill in forms that are not laid out in a uniform manner.

    I use Google AutoFill....It's just so quick I can whiz through filling in comps better than doing it all step by step...Great for the itv comps. :D

    I have the trial version which has now run out, but still works for filling in forms.
    I'll probably buy the proper version eventually because I do think it has helped me win more - it's obviously so much easier to just click a button rather than type the same info over and over again and therefore I enter loads more. (typing it all the time would bore me to tears - maybe I'm just lazy lol)

    I had the trial version of roboform and ignored the request to pay for it and I am still using it, I also use FF which does the filling in as well, I think I probably use FF more as it remembers sites you have been on and your user name and passwords, but I do click on the roboform link for fast filling form with address etc ;)
    What we see depends mainly on what we look for

    I have only just downloaded it - I was using google autofill but it doesnt fill in title or dob or gender which roboform does. Its not perfect but for me it is 10 times faster than typing it in, and some forms are one click and they are done. Well worth getting from my point of view as I type so slow :)

    I've been using Roboform since it first started & when it was freeware & purchased some years ago.

    If anyone is considering purchasing & is on a low income you can also get a 50% discount.
  • Does anyone have a link to download a free version of roboform please?
