Maybe, but they had quite a few beta testers. Even if they have a million beta testers there is a limit to the staff employed at the company. Personally, l'd say great job overall on how they are handling it as of now.

Hello, Dunkel_Stern

In addition to the efforts of Developers Team to release a reliable product, Corel performs Beta versions which are extensively tested by a large group of experienced beta testers worldwide. 

Howeveras nothing is absolutely perfectit is natural that small bugs may occur. This does not necessarily mean negligence or lack of technical teams, but instances that are sometimes unpredictable.

However if you can point out which bugs you could detect these information will be valuable to Dev. Team. 

Report them here. Certainly your Bug Report will be welcome and strongly considered.

As someone who has been around the computer graphics world since the beginning I would offer this.  While there is extensive testing of the products prior to relesase there are so many different conmputer configurations and to be blunt even more screwed up computers and users that it's impossible to test everything.  This results in issues and service releases.

Even with public betas computer software will have bugs. EVERY software company have programs with bugs.

And if you find bugs, then list them. Please dont just mention they are listed in the forum. That wont do :-D

Of course, Corel did a beta version, and Corel publicly called one year ago to aspirants to be beta-tester
