LogbookPro alternative that will import my old LBP files

[Abernathy]

Using Logbook Pro is like using the DOS function on Windows. The company won't move on with the times and now wants to charge for stuff that used to be free.

Anyone know of any decent programs out there that will convert my Logbook Pro files??

Does logten have an online backup? Is it free? Are there fees or just the initial purchase price?

FI's Websitemasteroftheuniverse is the same guy running LBP.

You'll just have to come over to the "dark side" one of these days. :laugh:

I don't believe it includes an online backup, no. But since I'm sure you're backing up your data somewhere else anyway, I'm not sure why you'd need a separate one just for the logbook.

Are there fees or just the initial purchase price?

As far as I know, just the initial purchase price. (I'm not yet using it -- I'm still using paper, believe it or not. If I have to go job hunting again, it won't be for a flying job I don't think.)

I would love to if the "dark side" didn't cost $2,000.00.

It doesn't. Laptops start at $999; they don't make anything as low-end as some of the $500 Dells, but you get a hell of a machine for $1K.

Spent $425 for my Dell in 2006. Still running GREAT.

Is it cutting edge? no.
Will it handle EVERYTHING I need it to?. Yes

Everybody thinks they HAVE to keep up with the Jones'

"I just bought a 16 Megapixel camera"
What do you use it for?
"just 4x6 snapshots...why?"
You don't need 16 Mpixels for that
"but it has a nice sticker on the front that I haven't taken off that says 16Meg"

Hey, if it does everything you need, then it's a good choice for you. I need something that does a little more, so ended up with the $1199 Macbook Pro. Does everything I need, in a form factor that works well for me on the road.

LogTen is automatically backed up on Macs thanks to the Time Machine function. I have my logbook files in Dropbox, and this allows me to sync my MacBook Air and Mac desktop for free, as well as putting a copy of the file in the cloud should both laptop, PC and Time Machine all break at the same time.

Works great. Or you can pay LogBook "pro" $80 a year for the same thing. Unless you're locked into Windoze, it's an easy choice.

I've been using mccPilotLog and it's very full-featured, slick, full-featured, and does import LogbookPro files as well as has an airline schedule interface and an iphone and android app. I've also had good response from their technical support. I don't know why I don't hear more about them on the web boards.

yes, but is it full featured???
