My information is a little dated but I thought LogTen Pro was a horrible program. I switched from LogBook Pro to LogTen when I went Mac in 2006. LogBook pro had built in filters but LogTen requires you to build your own. I tried for two weeks to figure out how to get the damn thing to tell me how much of anything that I had. Having to write code is not my idea of a user friendly program. I never figured out how to get "if multiengine=>0.1 show" to work. It was a completely useless program and I actually went back and installed LogBook Pro on my wife's PC (she's Mac now) in order to filter my times for the NetJets application.

As I said, my info is a little dated as I refused to pay the $60 "upgrade" fee for the new version a few years back. I thought my original $80 was a complete loss and wasn't going to gamble anymore money. Maybe things are better now, but if not, I'd stay the hell away from LogTen Pro unless you're more then a casual user.

With version 5 it has changed a lot, for the better! You still have to use the same filters and build them yourself, but once you figure it out it's smooth sailing. I found that the problem I was having was due to the fact that it is very precise, as in when building filters, you have to use the terms the program uses, letter for letter, or it doesn't recognize....

I'm a full supporter!

I've been a LogTen Pro user since version 2, and I've never remember having to hand-code any filters.
 
Hi!

Everything I have heard and seen on LogTenPro is good.

Macs are better, and more expensive. If/when I get into a position where I feel financially stable, I will switch bac to Mac.
