I've been purchasing separate start menu software since Microslop killed it in Windows 8. Start 11 from Stardock is worth the cost for me.

Classic Shell is also free, if someone has to use Windows.

I tried a few alternatives, but ultimately decided that the Stardock product offered the kind of customization I wanted along with ease of use. I think it was a good exchange of value for ten bucks.
