I find the oral practice work very good and feel that I would also benefit from writing as well. [ like the instant comparison of pronunciation the most compelling feature of your product and the price the least appealing.
So far so good, quite pricy though. And maybe it would be fun with something for visual learners. Overall it is very good but still has potential to improve. I have no experience of the customer service so that one is neither good or bad.
How likely I'm to buy it again depends on if I get a big discount on another language.

I've been delighted with the entire program so far. Particularly good were the i-pod downloads with Paul and Marie Claire. I'm learning French slowly, but I'm learning. I have Rosetta Stone and Pimsler.... they don't match up to Rocket Languages .
I'm almost finished with Module two in french and so far I really like it. It's a good mix of audio lessons where you get a feel for how to use the language and the language lessons which teacher more grammar etc. I already feel more confident in my french and I am recognising more and more words out on the street and in conversations around me.
The audio lessons are presented very well. They are by far the best part of the program. The written tests and multiple choice tests work fine. The interactive voice tests are sometimes glitchy. As others have said, the website and iOS app can sometimes have issues. The iOS app is not as quite as fully functional as the website, but still pretty good. Overall, I'm happy with the program. I suspect it will continue to get better with time. I'm not disappointed with my purchase.
Big fan of the product, especially the multi-device experience. The application does a nice job of staying in sync, so I can switch over to my mobile when on the go in any spare time and continue my learning.
The feedback loop (recording, confirming, listening) has prove very helpful with my pronunciation. This is especially important for me as my wife and her church are all Native Russian Speakers.
I am very pleased with the program. Very well organized and gives a variety of ways to practice and assess one's progress.
I am old enough to remember having to go to a language lab on campus and listen to the tapes there. Of course, nothing interactive available.
So far, so good. I've tried other online language learning tools and was VERY frustrated with how they taught things. But so far with Rocket French, things are going better. I like how I can mix things up a little...like listen to the vocab before I listen to the lesson. That helps me prepare for the lesson. Hopefully, Rocket French will help me get where I want to be.
I have wanted to learn Spanish for many years, and have started several other programs but was unsuccessful. I purchased Rocket Spanish one year ago and have been studying faithfully and diligently nearly every day since. I thought that I would be fluent in a year or so. I now see how optimistic, actually unrealistic, that goal was. Learning another language is difficult, and it is a long term process. However, Rocket Spanish has kept me engaged and looking forward to each day's lesson, which I think is one of its advantages. I am glad that I found Rocket Languages, and I think it is a great value for the price.
It's very interactive and easy to understand, though the initial directions were a little confusing--but only a little. Pronunciation is exact and (so far) easy to imitate. I wait until your speaker has finished so I can more accurately hear if I've mimicked him/her. And having the written Italian along with the pronunciation is helpful.
