newbie should avoid all those kind of wallet, just download bitcoin core, and the blockchain, much easier, and safer

I've tried it yesterday and indeed mSIGNA is definitely on the advanced side. Unless you've fully read BIP32 and *understands* it then you'll easily get lost as soon as you diverge form the online instructions. BIP32 is a very powerful wallet format and this application should be targeted at brokers and eCommerce developers.

For the average joe that wants more security, what I would recommend is either an hardware wallet such as the Trezor or an offline wallet using Armory (either use an old laptop with wireless disabled - ideally a fresh install - or a rasberrypi). The offline side needs very little resources.

As with any other wallet, make sure you create a backup, destroy your wallet and *restore it* before you even put any bitcoins in it, and keep the paper backup somewhere safe like a safe-deposit box.
