Among other features, Keyboard Maestro lets you record macros — sequences of key presses, mouse clicks, etc. — and then invoke them with hotkey shortcuts. It’s also a terrific scripting utility. The change list for version 3.0 is long, but my favorite aspects are the re-organized user interface (simpler by far) and improved scripting support (including support for Unix shell scripts). Keyboard Maestro also now has its own built-in web server, which allows you to execute Keyboard Maestro macros on your Mac remotely.
The whole thing is exquisitely documented, and introductory examples abound.

I have to tell you [Keyboard Maestro] is handy. Keyboard Maestro puts speed at your fingertips. Tired of doing the same things over and over? Just create a new shortcut by choosing your own key combinations to do those things you do most. It even comes preinstalled with some already generated ones.

The application switcher has
some very nice features

I was able to easily create some menu-activating
macros that save me time each day.

There's also a separate window switcher …
-- this alone makes it worth the asking price for me

an attractive package.

Keyboard Maestro’s versatility
and power set it apart from
those I have tried before.

Keyboard Maestro also sports
the application, window and
clipboard switchers

This is definitely a program that is great for the keyboard macro facility.

Keyboard Maestro is everything QuicKeys should have been but isn’t.
Technofile
It has all the features I’ve been missing.
Of all the macro utilities I’ve used in the past 10 or 15 years,
this one is the easiest to use.
It is easier to use than QuicKeys, has more features and costs less than half as much.
Keyboard Maestro could very well change your computing life.
superbly easy
It’s a beautiful piece of software which, like the much more expensive Quickeys,
automates many repetitive tasks on your Macintosh.
a brilliant new interface and a powerful rewritten engine
A helpful demonstration is well worth a look for anyone who uses a Mac daily.
If all you do with your Mac is
send a few emails you probably
don't need this software. If
you do more than that though,
it’s a must have.
I find Keyboard Maestro powerful and easy to use.
Keyboard Maestro handles all the boring and repetitive tasks for me.
Keyboard Maestro makes my Mac OS X life easy.

Keyboard Maestro is the first thing I put on each new Mac I buy. Can’t imagine my Mac life without it!

I love Keyboard Maestro. Combined with the SafeType keyboard it makes for an ergonomic dream.

I would like to compliment your on your software. Not only is it very intuitive and it was not necessary for me to read much of the manual, but you have many nice features that other much, much, much more expensive macro programs (I am referring to QuicKeys) do not have, or you have to do some pretty extensive programming to get close to the same thing.

Keyboard Maestro is simple, clean, and very straightforward.

I have RSI issues and Keyboard Maestro is a huge help and saving my life here, thanks for a great product, the upgrade is terrific!

Keyboard Maestro is a fantastic application and has revolutionised the way I use my Mac. I have a bunch of keyboard-triggered macros for selecting applications, opening Web sites, running Photoshop commands, etc. I also use it to make the F16, F17, and F18 keys on my new flat aluminium keyboards work as volume up, down, and mute. I no longer use the Dock, Expose, or Mac OS X application switcher.

I love Keyboard Maestro and I think you are doing a great job with it! Quite a few of my clients have also bought your product. I am a software developer myself, and I know how much work it takes. You are doing a great job!

So many great new features - my favorites are the recording, the web macro activation, the inline scripts, and the no-modifier hot keys (which should help me fix many of the broken text editing conventions in some apps, like Firefox and Entourage). And self-updates will be nice, too. I feel like a kid in a candy store!

I really LOVE your program.

I work as both administrative and tech support for a scientific software company. The accounts receivable letters, upgrade letters, and basic tech questions were excessively time-consuming when I started this job. I took 2 hours to write up all the macros I needed, and I save hours and hours every week by using the hot keys. My coworkers were impressed when I did a series of letters that took them 3 hours - in 20 minutes! Thanks for making me look good!

I found Keyboard Maestro in my search to create a keyboard shortcut for menu items in applications that do not have a shortcut. As a previous OneClick user, it was a pleasure to find an application that would allow me to easily manipulate my Mac. Keyboard Maestro is an application that does not require advanced experience and has been trouble free. I would have to say that my biggest problem with Keyboard Maestro is remembering all my shortcuts that I have added.
