The software is funky and inconsistent.

I bought this because of all the positive reviews I read on the net for people with hand problems. i am a designer I'm using a mouse or trackball and need precise control. I have been using trackballs and various mice for 30 years and am now trying the Evoluent Mouse. I also ordered an Evoluent mouse pad to go with it. I'm using this on a MacBook Pro running Mac OS 10.11.6. I removed all other mouse control software. It seems comfortable enough that I'll probably continue to use it. Issues: The pointer works but the buttons don't work, meaning they don't click on the item I'm pointing to. on the screen unless I remove and reinsert the USB stick in the morning when the laptop boots up. The pointer speed button also doesn't work again, even though the other buttons work (after I reinserted the USB stick). ). It works without turning on the "Hi, MD, LO, XL" indicators on top of the mouse. I had to disable various trackpad settings for the mouse to work, which means I have to reset those settings whenever I take my laptop away from the mouse. Also, the mouse pad, which is actually pretty good, gives off gas, I'm guessing due to the memory foam in the palm rest. I sit here and breathe what's not right. It must be degassed before it can be sold. This is totally unacceptable. If I didn't need ergonomics I would return this. Buy this when you need it. Otherwise I would not recommend it.

Pros
  • ADJUST MOUSE SPEED FROM LOW TO HIGH. You can adjust the pointer speed from low to high using the optical sensor controls on the side of the mouse. There is no need to let go of the handle to adjust the speed.
Cons
  • too stupid
