Default Fitday PC?

I've used Fitday for years now (although not consistently), and I know that a lot of you here use it as well. I've been looking at the Fitday PC download they offer, and wondered if any of you use it. If so, how different is it than the free internet version? Is it better or easier to navigate? It looks tempting...

I use the fitday software and MUCH prefer it over the online version. It's so much faster and easier to personalize. The graphs are better and easier to read/use. Everything about it just seems improved and less clunky. The free online version is great, but I really prefer the pc version.

Thanks Suzanne! I looked at some of the screenshots, and they looked more streamlined and easier to read and/or navigate. I think I'm gonna get it!

I use Fitday PC. I tried the web interface and didn't like it very much.

I keep my data file on a keychain USB drive so I can access it from my home computer or my work computer.

Fitday doesn't have any sort of synchronization between the web version and the PC version, so if you switch you have to manually re-create all your custom foods.

I, too, use a thumb drive. Also, I find the only drawbacks to be lack of synchronization and inabilty to transfer new custom foods from one account to another (my dh and I both use FitDay PC).

Other than that, I love it and have even recommended it to our family doctor!

I was wondering the same thing.....

So is it worth 20 dollars or should we just stick with the online fitday?
