I did Excel for a while. Excel is good at collecting data, but not always so good at reporting it. It can't automatically sort by colors, for example, so it'll be hard to report on hours by plane unless you're familiar with tables and filters.
In the end, it's way worth your money for something like MCCpilotlog. I made that move a year ago, and I don't regret it for a minute.

I will continue to beat the drum for myflightbook.com. it's free for starters but for $25/yr I get nightly backups into my dropbox folder.
It's a one man show who is very responsive to suggestions and bug reports. Exports and printing available to any number of formats.
The app supports both iOS and android as well.

APDL & LBP are what a professional uses. APDL even pulls your OOOI from the web and throws it in for you.
With the new tax laws they may have to drop their price a little since it’s not a deduction anymore. Still worth it if you use all features. If not, LBP is fine and works well with the desktop.

Change the dates in the pay section for the period you want. It’s pretty easy. It defaults to 1st to last, but is easily switched by tapping the date and changing it.

I know all this. I’ve been a beta tester for Neal for a long time.
As for changing the calendar dates, it still doesn’t work. Trips that carry over from one month to the next never get handled correctly from a pay perspective.

Hello,
I’m looking to transition to an electronic logbook. In a previous job I logged flight time by the week due to the short duration of multiple flights in multiple aircraft per day.
Is there an electronic logbook that allows to enter a range of dates in the field instead of a single date?
Mccpilotlog does not have this capability. Just curious if there are any that do?
Thanks

I decided to use mccPILOTLOG for its cross platform integration. I've only used it for two months or so, but I am not impressed with a few of its quirks. I've been working some with support, but they seem to send mainly canned responses and they take a couple of days to respond, typically. I'm giving them one more shot and depending on how that goes, I may move to a different logbook and take the loss on what I paid to mccPILOTLOG.
