I like what I see so far Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
First of all, Halleluiah! This is a real Windows Dot Net app! I am so tired of fighting to get outdated logging software running on modern PCs. This app actually behaves like a modern windows application.

So many software packages just put the data in the same folder as the application (really bad practice). I can tell Log4OM where in the file system to put my data files (like under the user profile where they belong). By default it uses a simple file based database. But, it looks like you can use MySQL as the database engine and have multiple users access the data at the same time.

The user interface is not cluttered. Everything I have tried so far works. I imported ADIF files from both ACLog and Logger32 and it accepted them with no problems. The hook into QRZ.com for call sign lookups worked fine. LOTW functionality is fully integrated into the app. There is no annoying secondary app to handle the upload and download. The LOTW download worked the first time.

I do wish they had a manual in English. But, I have been able to figure out things without too much difficulty.

I like the multiple station configurations. I have one set up for QRO and one set up for QRP operation (different radios and power levels).

Right now I have my QSOs for my old call sign in a separate database file from the ones for my current call. I'll see if I can find a way to get everything into one file. But, for me, if I can't this is not a big deal.

Note: I am not a serious contester. So, I can't really evaluate it from that perspective. But, for a casual operator, this application looks great so far.

Finally, IZ1OQT, thanks for posting the first review for Log4OM. I had never heard of it before your post.

Great software Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Great software! Works flawlessy. Supports Grayline paint, LOTW spots, multiple monitors. Label print is OK, but will supported soon by HRDLabel via Webservices. Webservices activated by Log4OM could be used also for integrating Log4OM with third party software. Supports also for SAT mode QSO. Frequently updated by the author. Available in English and Italian language.
