Tiles: Is this another ObjectDock?

Well, we've paid twice for ObjectDock to just get it working (and it's still buggy). Now what they do? Tweak it a little, rename it, and voila - WHOLE NEW PRODUCT! With old bugs, presumably. Now pay for it third time, Stardock fans! Is my love for Stardock fading away? You guess! =(

And now for something "completely different!" ;)

While there is some functional overlap (they are both skinnable app launchers if you pin the .exe files in Tiles), The latter's functionality is more flexible in my thinking and automatically finds and applies the skin you're using.

Also, Tiles is more intuitive and visually oriented, allowing work without constantly going to find whichever dock the particular app sits in, as well as allowing multiple customizable windows to be opened, minimalized and worked on without needing the taskbar.

These are just initial impressions. I have docks and Nexus docks/subdocks and Tiles seems to have (for me) precluded the need to have to run back and forth from open apps to docks.... and has made it easier to 'find' the fifferent apps involved in my work.

Me likes!

After using Tiles for a few hours my conclusion is that since it is quite new that it is not to replace my docks yet. -_-

Tiles is not a replacement for ObjectDock.

They do not share developers or code and are very different applications.

If you are having problems with ObjectDock I would recommend you contact support@stardock.com

I have Fences, ObjectDock Plus, and Tiles running on my desktop.  Each has it own use and I'm loving it!

It's not another ObjectDock, it's another REVOLUTION  }:)
