Are there any hardware manufacturers who write good software?
I haven't used any Logitech gear in a few years, so things may have changed, but after running iCUE...Logitech can't possibly be that bad, right?
Logitech's software is at least better than Razer's. Although it's not a high bar.
Razer angers me. I have a keyboard i bought in 2013 that has features like programmable keys and macros locked behind an online service i refuse to sign up for. Ridiculous. I don't get to use the things i bought it for. To its credit it though the hardware is solid, and my keyboard refuses to die so i still have it, the perfectly working and unworn keycaps mocking my cheap nature who refuses to spend money when my current keyboard works.
At this rate ill have to gift it to my nephew when he gets old enough for me to finally have an excuse to get a new one. Goddamnit Razer
VKB. Their configuration software is intimidating at first glance (and you better RTFM!), but it's super powerful and allows you to change and tune absolutely everything. Plus the settings are stored in the device so you only need to run the configurator when you want to change something. This is what you get when engineers run the company, not marketing, and they respect the end user's intelligence.
