ISB vs Keyclone

[Krago]

If you are happy to run with the wizard as it configures your set up.

In under a minute, IS Boxer will get you:

On a switch, the others automatically follow the new master.
Any DPS key pushed (1 through =), will have each slave push the same key but assist the current master first (No need for WoW macros, the FTL is automatic).
You have a hotkey for Repeater and another for Keymaps.


The only confusing portion for a new user.
Turn off Keymaps and Repeater on for Passwords.
Turn both off to chat.
Otherwise, Keymaps on and Repeater off to play.

Keyclone has a Mute button, which is broadcast on or off.
IS Boxer has two buttons, one for keymaps and one for repeater.

The under minute setup along with the ability to do key maps and not be forced into 1:1 key broadcasting was what attracted me to ISBoxer.

I did have a functioning setup using free s/w that worked but I couldn't adapt or play/tinker with as I can with ISBoxer.

I also like the instant switching with ISBoxer and the mouse repeater regions.

Also, ISBoxer has a free 7 day trial, not sure if keyclone does something similar or not.

I was a long-time Keclone user that took a 6month break from multiboxing and decided to start playing again about 2 months ago.

On a lark, decided to check out ISBoxer to see what the hubbub was about...

Boy am I glad I did.

All the functionality that Ualaa highlighted is very, very strong...

Automatic FTL set up, no need for macros.
Instant window swap, as quickly as you can hit the keys.
Accurate and fast mouse broadcasting.
Send next click option for easy ground target spells.
Repeater regions for healing.
Keymaps, which are like hotkeys/macros but very powerful and flexible.

As far as effort needed to "get started", ISBoxer is extremely low if you use the configuration wizard. Possibly quicker than Keyclone.

Starting to dig into the Keymap and other ISBoxer functionality WILL have a learning curve, but, you can do that piecemeal as you learn and play with it.

I recommend starting a new team and playing with ISBoxer for a bit rather than trying to pick up your entire old team and setup and "port it over" from Keyclone to ISBoxer. Once you figure out the differences on a new team, that conversion will be much easier...

Can't recommend ISBoxer highly enough, and I was a long-time Keyclone fanboi!

Not sure on the duration, but Keyclone does have a trial period too.
As far as I know, all of the pay options do (ISB, GCP, KC), except for PB (other site).
But Tim said he was planning on implementing one.

And then everything else is free.
So no need for a free trial period.
