description states this is stand alone version. So I do not need to have ANY OTHER software like brother's pe-design or embird.

This is the only software I have for by Brother PE-770. I'm able to do everything I need to with this software.

No software required. Your system was configured for this in the first place, so no.

Software isn't included. You will have to use your own OS cds for installment.

I have the brother se400 and the brother pe770. It would work with both but I returned it to Amazon. You can only merge one design and you can't change the size of it. It totally didn't do what I needed it/or as my understanding of what it was suppose to do. If you want a program to see your design patterns than this is what you want. If you want a program to use your designs to create (size)new designs and add lettering, you will want something else.

I am not sure what you consider "stand alone". I have this unit and I sent print jobs to it through wifi from two laptops and a tablet. I have found it to be good in most ways. The one draw back is that you must use NEW HP print cartridges. It is "smart" enough to detect refilled, or competitor products. Hope this helps.

The included software works, but is not very good. Other free options for Windows are ThermoHID and Utac. I ran Utac for a year or two, then found ThermoHID fit my needs better, and is a bit more stable.

There is no software with these, just the forms and transmittal pages. Use it with your QuickBooks or whatever software you choose because they all end up printing to the same forms.

I was able to install it without a previous version just needed serial. Not an upgrade package. The real deal.

No, there isn't anything extra. There's just the regular User's guide which you will find hidden under the "help" button in the upper part of the screen (on the right side). This user's guide is separated for version 3.0 and 3.5, same appears to the video tutorials which you can find there, too. But the software seems to being directed to Win 8 users. For me, using still XP it's too complicated to use, so usually I prefer to work with my Print shop 21 instead. Best regards, Heinz

It is a stand alone unit, extremely easy to operate, the software is if you want to run it through a computer.

Sure does. You just need to download the freeware program recommended by the maker, so you have the most current version.

No special software is required,if you do not know how to set it up then run the included disk.Very easy to set up and mine works perfect.

You can only install the software on one computer. if you have another computer, you'll have to purchase another copy

No, this is an embroidery only machine. I think Brother has the SE 400 that does regular sewing as well as embroidery

Software, yes. It is the retail package IF it is actually the BDR -2209.. No cable. If it is a BDR209DBK, it is an OEM package. No software, no cable, and no BDXL support. Read the description closely to make sure they are not referencing the BDR209DBK as the actual part number. The picture is not a BDR-2209.

No there is nothing to my knowledge out there. You have to write your own for what ever system that you're using.

It is definitely a stand-alone computer. Awesome machine. I have the entire Adobe creative suite 6 on it with Manga Studio 5 on it and it runs very smooth. No lag what so ever. This a spectacular machine and I love it. The only issue I had was my first one the power supply went out on it and they had to send me a new one. I had it back in three days. Other than that it is great, definitely worth the money and you will love it.
