thanks for the info -

Thx.

The last time I looked APDL does NOT sync to the Logbook Pro desktop software. Which, frankly, is shocking to me. That just seems like such an obvious feature i just don't understand how that could have been left out. Neal has said he is working on integration but so far has given no timeline for when that's coming...just an "I'm working on it."

Knowing Neal, however, when integration DOES finally happen I would definitely expect a monthly fee to allow that to happen...you know like every other damn feature of the software.

ZuluLog is web based so you can access it anywhere.

APDL Sync to LBP is very, very close. It's in private beta testing right now.

When you print it out, put it in a nice binder. I was shocked at the appearance of some e-logbooks I saw when I interviewed at JB. Have a little pride!

Have you ever used LogTen Pro? I thinking of switching over to APDL, but it's twice as expensive and I'm not sure if it's worth the extra $75/year. I also do some GA flying, is there a way to log that in APDL?

As long as I get APDL for free as a private beta tester, I won't be trying anything else. Yes, APDL does have the ability to log Part 91 flying. Once the sync goes active for all users, it'll be much better for non-121 flyers. However, most of the features are geared towards 121 flying.

Another plug for mccPilot Logbook.
They now support synched upload of Trans States schedules from Netline. This company is really customer oriented (mcc not TSA). It took them less than 2 months to get TSA's new scheduling abomination supported. I'm sure there can't be more than 50 pilots at TSA that use mccPilot, but they got it done like we were a big customer. Too bad Lufthansa doesn't support their garbage Netline like mcc supports their software...

that's great news. I still stand by the fact that it was a huge oversight that this "feature" wasn't stock from the get go...and there is no way it's not going to cost money to transfer between the two.

I use Mccpilotlog and love it. For the one time price that you pay it is hard to beat. You get to use it on multiple devices, have an online backup, use a phone app, and take advantage of their syncing software for a one time fee. As was mentioned by someone else, they are always providing updates to improve the system. I'm not sure why 90% of the thread didn't answer your question and pushed other products instead, but I don't think you would be disappointed if you decide to get Mccpilotlog.
