| Pros | Software works great, does virtually everything you need to work with GPS maps and data. | | Cons | GPS interface is inconsistent, not compatible with Garmin Training Source data, and data export is limited. | | Verdict | For most folks this software will do the job and then some. If you want topographic data to view on the trail this is your only choice. Just make sure you GPS is compatible before purchasing! | | Recommended for: Anyone |
