Excellent  Time owned: more than 12 months
I've been using AC Log and many other of N3FJP's software for 3 or 4 years and love it. Very easy and logical. I bought the suite. For the low price it's a very good investment. Highly recommended.

instant support !!  Time owned: more than 12 months
Beyond enjoying the software, I almost can't believe how quickly the Davises reply to e-mails. I originally had only ACLog... I recently purchased access to the entire suite. Thanks very much, Kimberly & Scott, for a top-notch product!

Can't beat it!  Time owned: more than 12 months
I have used AcLog and all Scott's contest software for about three years now. Great to move the fields where you like them, simple to use for LoTW, great with making QSL and mailing labels. Nothing fancy BUT it does what you need a logging program for...and the contests, never seen anything better....great to see the sections in Nov SS worked, see a map of the country to see your sections worked and more importantly a graph to see what bands, what times, and how well you did for the contest and can plan your next one from that. Couldn't ask for better for the money..it's better than free!

SO EASY TO USE!  Time owned: 0 to 3 months
My local club used the N3FJP Field Day logging program in June and it sure impressed me. I downloaded the ACLOG program one day 3 months ago and purchased the entire software suite the next day. WOW!

I have been using AC LOG for 3 months now and used the SS and NAQP contest programs in those recent events. The programs work flawlessly and there is almost no learning curve involved. They have made contesting a pure joy.

As far as the basic AC LOG program goes, it has been so easy to use. Just this week I finally got around to reading the full, but easy to understand manual, just to learn about all of it's great features. It contains the easiest explanation of how to use LOTW I have seen so far. I now look forward to trying LOTW. Also, I was able to easily customize the main logging screen to suit my operating preferences.

This is a winner of a program, especially for us basic computer users. I would recommend it contesters and non-contesters alike.

Super logging program  Time owned: more than 12 months
Rig control not very powerful, so what it works in conjunction with DX spot tie in. Spotting is easy, just log the QSO. Others require additional screens, etc. Love the ability to know whether worked, unconfirmed, etc.

Tried them all.. twice!  Time owned: more than 12 months
I started out with ACLog and loved it. Then I had problems interfacing a rig with it so tried a number of other logging programs, each of which easily got my rig interfaced. But each of these programs - no need to mention names because they're all good and have special features, left a little to be desired for me. So I went back to ACLog and figured out how to set up the interface. I was missing the correct hex address and some of the other settings I entered were not right. But now it's working fine and I'm enjoying the program again. I like the way Scott and Kimberly have the various contest logs set up - just great! I enjoy the contests not as a serious contester but for the sheer fun and challenge of it.

Unsuitable for large display  Time owned: more than 12 months
I have been using AC Log 3.0 since 2005 and was very happy with it. However, I have just upgraded to a newer computer system with a 24" monitor running at a display resolution of 1920 by 1200. At this resolution AC Log, while usable, looks terrible. There is a menu setting which allows you to change the form size, but it doesn't help very much. I spent a fair amount of time trying to move the entry fields around, and then resizing the AC Log window size, but it still didn't solve the problem. The log display's width and heighth are fixed.

I will be switching to another logging program.

Fantastic, flawless, and fun.  Time owned: more than 12 months
I started using the N3FJP Field Day Contest Log in 2005. I purchased the N3FJP Software Package (without CD) in 2007, and began using the N3FJP Amateur Contact Log. I created log files for each of the calls I have had, and began using the ARRL Logbook of The World. Then I got bit by the radio sport bug (contesting), and have used many of the N3FJP Contest Logs since. After a contest, the N3FJP software makes reporting your contest results to the contest sponsor and transferring the contest log to the main Amateur Contact Log a snap. From there, uploading to the Logbook of The World is a trivial task with the Amateur Contact Log. The N3FJP logs are flawless, no hassle, easy and fun to use. N3FJP easily earns the five (5) rating.

Just what I was looking for  Time owned: 3 to 6 months
Love this logger, tried lots of others but for day to day stuff this is brilliant.
Also with the exchange rate being very good against the dollar when I paid for it it was only €13. This is great value for a very useful logger that is very customisable.
I use a rig interface so the log always knows my mode, band and frequency etc. And also use the qrz.com internet lookup feature to automatically fill in the mane, address, state etc of the person I am logging.
I use SD log by ei5di for contests and these two logging programs will cover you for everyday and then contests.

Outstanding  Time owned: more than 12 months
I have had this logging program for a couple of years. The program and support is outstanding. The uploading to LOTW is effortless. I highly recommend this program.
