I am definitely not a networking specialist but I have used WL in many many
multi-op situations with 5 PC's and it works great. And, I have been able to
train many ops on how to bring up the network when a PC crashes with a
simple one page "cheat sheet". It has its own quirks for sure, but it is
very reliable and I have never ever lost a log or qso with it -- which needs
to be the reliability test. Not until you have a PC crash at 2AM, you bring
a spare on line, and then have WL re-sync the log automatically with the
other 4 PC's will you appreciate WL's reliability.
I am not familiar with the other logging programs any more after having
switched to WL several years ago -- but can they all claim QSO and log
reliability and automatic re-sync after a PC crash? (BTW -- our PC crashes
are not WL induced but RFI caused.)
