Multi-Monitor Taskbars for Windows 7

Question

I'm looking for a program allowing Multi-Monitor Taskbars in Windows with the following features:

• works Windows 7 (Windows 8 has it natively anyway)
• supports at least 6 monitors
• if I open a program through the start menu in monitor X, the program should open in monitor X
• eats as little CPU as possible
• has GUI
• free is preferred
• as responsive as possible
• as bug-free as possible

DisplayFusion is pretty good but I'm looking for alternatives as I have some issues it. (Issue 1; Issue 2, Issue 3; and it is non-free)

Answer 1

You could take a look at UltraMon by Realsoft. This meets and exceeds all of your requirements other than cost but there is a 30 day trial version available so you can test it out beforehand:

• supports Windows 7 (32 and 64 bit)
• supports every monitor detected by Windows
• plethora of options to determine where windows launch
• relatively light on resources
• has a full GUI to configure it

There is also a tour showing and explaining each of the features.

Ultramon also provides the functionality you're requesting in your other question.
