I bought one of these because the game I play supports a lot of options that can be changed on the fly. Before, I would have to be really creative CTRL-1 to CTRL-6, CTRL-ALT-1 to CTRL-ALT-6, etc. Worked but not ideal. With 12 buttons at the thumb, I now have effectively 36 buttons. I think this is a great piece of hardware (so much that I bought another one for my second gaming machine); however, here are a few things might make a difference to people:
The buttons are a bit small, relatively easy to push, and the rear set of six is a bit far back for my thumb. I'm not sure expecting to be able to quickly use any of them in a spit second is ergonomic. In my case, the first row of buttons is easy to use for active gaming use. The rest I use for changing options in the game, and it works great because even I take a moment to find the right key by feel that is fine.
The software a bit quirky. It's certainly not the worst software I have used, but I did have to play with it a bit to figure out. It gets the job done well enough. There are a lot controls for button mappings, multiple DPS resolutions, polling speed, LED lighting, saving/loading profiles, etc. The macro editor could have been made easier to edit macros, but once you're done you're not likely to care about it again.
My only complaint is the software binds only to keys input on your keyboard. Don't have a number pad? Can't bind to number pad buttons. Don't have function keys? Can't bind them. You'll need to connect a keyboard that has it, bind them, and then you can switch to another keyboard. This also means you can't bind to extended keystrokes (F13-F20) unless you have a keyboard with them.
Overall, once things are in place, I love this mouse.
