FlightLogger

The way how everything is really well organized a part some other things not properly set up

CLASS SIGNATURE LIKE FLIGHTS (THIS IS FORCING US TO USE PAPER AND UPLOAD IT) and then in booking of day/week/month adding a part of RESOURCES not only aircraft and classes. We can book and manage our cars, our other vehicles moreover if you manage an airport too

FlightLogger is relatively simple to learn and use. The user interface is also easy to understand.The main bookings page functions easily. From an instructing perspective it is simple to use.

Maintenance:From a Maintenace perspective, Flightlogger does not function well and feels very clunky to use. The original plan was to put all inspections and maintenance requirements for our aircraft onto flightlogger to be tracked and replace our current excel based system. However, the system for tracking these items uses the certificate system which is very slow to update. For example: If I wanted to add ten items that are all inspected every 100 hours, first I would have to create the all the requirements in the requiremnt section, then add them individually to each aircraft. Then when I need to update them, I have to click on each inspection individually, which opens a new page, then update the maintenance which takes me back to the original aircraft page, then approve the updated maintenance which reloads the webpage. Doing this multiple times is very time consuming.A system where we could create a maintenance template which could then be applied to multiple aircraft would be very useful. Also a sinlge click sign off for maintenance items would save a lot of time.Unable to add airframe total time in service:Tracking aircraft total time in service is tricky, as we can only track maintenance using the tachometer. If the tachometer is replaced or reaches the end of it's number range and resets to zero or another number, this throws the tracking and has to be reset. This also creates a gap between the tracking system and the aircraft logbooks.

The scheduling of flights is very easy. The functions are easy to control and i gives you a great overview over all the flights. Furthermore, the flight debriefs are easy and structured.

Sadly, flightlogger collects more data than you can see in reports. It would be great if all entered information can be reviews (safety report). Furthermore, the Maintenace tracking is OK. Once a maintenance is due to you can sign it in but you can't make a repetitive interval so it pops ups again in another 100 hours or so.

By far the best thing about flight logger is the great customer service team and the excellent easy to use software. We looked at many similar options before deciding to go with flight logger and flight logger really was the best option. From the program administration, scheduling, internal messaging, certificate tracking and overall ease of use of the software it made choosing flight logger easy. After using the software for over a year we’ve been able to offer a few suggestions to the flight logger team on how to improve their product to meet some of our more specific needs and needs of clients in our country and the flight logger team has done been excellent and developing and implementing these suggestions free of charge. The customer service is the best I’ve ever experienced and would happily recommend flight logged to anyone looking at using the software.

The price stands out at being more costly than other platforms and is variable based on active students. There isn’t much functionality when it comes to dealing with inactive students which is to be expected. Some improvements could be made in the “ground theory” and “messaging centre” to make it easier to use but these are minor suggestions and not critical to the operation of the software. Overall price aside this is a great product.
