The New Google Adwords Interface Really Sucks!

    Hello,

    I don't know what is your impression but mine is that the new Google AdWords interface really sucks.

    It's too complicated, and makes my system go slow.

    Nothing compared to the old one.
    It was simple, clear, and just pure text.

    I've been on the new interface for 20 minutes and cannot figure how to search the ads in my account (by ad text).

    Was this update really needed?

    And for the good news... in less than a month you'll have no choice - it will be forced upon you.

    Looks like they have only tested it in-house on a 30 inch monitor running Chrome ;)

    That's quite Google style (or at least in the latest years)

    That's the same impression I had.

    I guess which screen resolution I should use to have a good "view".

    I've checked it in both IE and Firefox.

    Sorry Google, I'm not going to download that Firefox-bad-copy user-browsing-activity-spying browser named Chrome.

    Not only that. The bids are more expensive now

    I totally agree with you man. I wonder why they change the old one. The old one was better...

    It's starting to grow on me. Typical Google redesign with no real-world usability done first...

    New one now only support firefox3, ie7, and Google browser so others browsers will really sucks. But new one have step by step interface, easier for newbie but still easily get confuse. So I will choose the old one :D.

    I like new one , once you know how to use , is like adword editor you very fast to change your bid and can filter which QS Low which QS high , and you can easy see your placement ad which website have profit which not.

    The google adwords site is so slow - im sitting here twiddling my thumbs waiting for it to just upload one small amendment. I know i'll get used to the new system eventually, but Im sorry, the speed of it is just absolutely shocking - it just locks out my whole machine whilst it is considering its next move.

    Yeah, it's slow to load etc, but the time it saves on reporting, making mass changes etc far outweighs the slow load time. It has loads of good new features, I'm really liking it - although it doesn't display perfectly in Chrome yet
