Some of the best out there I have used UAD plugins and hardware for many years now, and can absolutely say that it is some of the very best out there. Customer support is not the best I have experienced, but not as terrible as some make them out to be here. They always reply and try their best to solve any problem you have...but sometimes they just don't seem to be able to fix them. But somehow I have always managed to find a remedy, and keep on rocking. For a seasoned professional like me, no other company makes re-creations of familiar hardware like UAD ...and in many cases the same brand name made the originals. The new addition of native versions has really boosted the usefulness and capacity a lot...so cheers for that! The new addition of instruments is great...and some of them like the Waterfall organ and Rhodes, are the best I have heard. Lately the prices have become very reasonable...so that's a + too.

Absolutely horrible experience! That was a swift experience with this company. They did not only solved my issue (automated customer service), but furthermore didn't allow me to download my product (a set of VST plugins) stating that the token I have was already redeemed! How could it be redeemed if the software designed to redeem you provide is not responsive? Absolutely horrible experience!

UAD customer support is absolutely horrible UAD customer support is absolutely horrible. All you can deal with is the Bot that tells you the same thing over and over that didn't help. I put in a support ticket and still no help. I got a response from that damn Bot again. I spent a lot of money at this company and to receive such cruddy support is not acceptable.

Awful company Awful company. Customer Service is not empathetic. Been having continous Issues with Windows for many many years. Just get a Focusrite or just any other interface in general. Wasted so much time.

Compatibility Issues iLok/macOS Have been informed about iLok compatibility issues with the new version of macOS (again). Thats not acceptable in 2024. UA Audio: Make iLok avoid such problems and please find another copyright solution. iLok has hurt us since the 90'. I do not want to postpone any Mac OS upgrade. Stopped buying any new plugin with iLok.
