UPDATED: You have to find software yourself - WORKS GREAT WHEN YOU DO
Een newer update: I found my own review useful when my PC died and took the software for it with it :-) I couldnt for the life of me remember it. That youtube video is gold. See below. Keypad still good. Microsoft Surface R.I.P. lolNEW UPDATE: NEW: Going from 1 to 4 stars. However, if you look on Youtube, you can find a video that is 15 minutes long that explains how to program these with the software download URL. "Macro Keyboard Tutorial: Download Software and Program Tutorial". Pixelfreak. He wrote it for all the customers who are looking for a solution—he even states he was in the same boat.WHEN IT WORKS IT IS AWESOME :-) If you want a worry free experience then there are units three times this price that are more "legitimate". Look harder.Software is not intuitive. Designed for engineers, not regular users.WHAT IS REALLY COOL: You can program in and EMBED SEQUENCES AND MACCRO's to keys - so when you use it you DO NOT NEED MACRO EXPANSION SOFTWARE :-) :-) :-)There is software that works, and you will have to find and download it. The link in the product instructions is bad.OLD: If this keyboard had come pre-programmed to use with any regular macro expansion software it would get 5 stars - build quality is great. Instructions are incomprehensible. Key's all programmed to 'C' so you have to get their software. Overall very very very poor experience. Anti Virus software flags it. Bummer. Great build quality. Teach me to try and get value for money.

No software
Product page talks about how easy it is to use but it doesn't come with the software to program it and the product page has a dead link. Even if the one drive link did work, that doesn't exactly inspire confidence in the quality of your product if you are unable to host a real website to download it from. Probably best to spend your money on something else

Works 100% No Problem
Just to throw it out there, I've had no problem what so ever in getting this guy up and running. I scanned through some of the other reviews and I'm actually a bit surprised in the responses. It needed no driver as the description said, my laptop found it in just a few seconds after plugging it in. Yes, it did seem that every key was tied to "C" but the unit had not been programmed yet --I.E. a "programmable keypad". I did have to look around a little bit for the software, but that was nothing more that going thorough some of the other Amazon listings for similar items and finding a usable link. I found it with a unit of 6-keys and 1-knob, that looked identical otherwise. Click click done. Now, as with any Chinese-y devices, the software was ugly and basic but worked just fine. It worked in a very similar way to any other prog-key app I have used. Even without any instructions (you rarely get any for this kind of thing) I got it figured out and my key/knob thingy set-up and running in maybe 5 minutes.On that note, its a great unit --Good clicks from the keys, good feel on the encoder (both rotate and click), its fairly heavy for something this small and the USB-C plug is nice and tight -no wiggles. I do with it had come with some stick-on rubber feet, but I'm sure I probably have some in a parts box somewhere.Yeah, its good. BTW I named mine, "Alicia Keys" and I felt fairly clever in doing so.-Topher-Cape Cod, MA

DO NOT BUY. DOESNT WORK
This device doesn't come with a program. In fact it says in the description you don't need one. That's a lie. You have to have one to program the buttons. Or else all the buttons and knobs just type the letter C. There is a program on one drive it lists but there is no file there anymore. Absolute waste.

Do not buy this - software contains malware.
The keyboard product is a trojan horse for the software that goes with it, which contains malware. Verified by two different virus checkers and run through malware detectors.

Will Change if software link is updated
Software link is expired. Followed the suggestions to a trojan virus. Need the software. Looks cool. Feels nice.

Works but you have to unplug and replug it in after a reboot or sleep.
Works fine once you find the key mapping software. Critical issue though, the device stops functioning after the computer wakes up from sleep or after a restart. You need to unplug and plug it back in for it to function again.

Such a handy Macro Keyboard!
The 2 wheels are super handy for editing photos, and 12 custom keys are plenty for quick access to keystrokes or just key replacement. The software is pretty primitive, but is functional and relatively easy to figure out.One of they keys was loose on delivery, but I just seated it correctly and it works well.

It’s both a good and an awesome product
If you don’t know your way around computers or simply don’t want to have any hassles this product will be ok but nothing else; the app they supply is pretty bad with an awful interface and very few options for programming macros that will quite often interfere with default Windows OS macros but you can probably still make it work.However there is a pretty easy way to reprogram these keyboards from scratch to make them use any key (like the F13 to F24) and this makes it awesome for the price. Absolutely great.Build quality is nice too even though the bottom part is laser cut MDF and it’s just a basic circuit board, the keys and switches feel pretty nice.
