First of all, do not believe the long bogus review by stevee1 listed below. It is obviously written by someone that is either clueless as to the actual usability of this software or a Acrocat employee as half of the praise is for items that have never worked in the Macintosh version. I made the mistake of taking it for face value and am now out the price of this useless software.
The first major problem in v20 is that the charts are completely useless as they only track the first set of each exercise. That means if you bench-press 100 pounds in rep 1, 200 pounds in rep 2, and 300 pounds in rep three, the charts will only recognize and track only the first rep. However in the world can Acrocat state this will track your progress when it only tracks your first warm up set? To make matters worse, this MAJOR shortcoming was pointed out to Acrobat two years ago and the company has failed to address this. Read that again…this company has left its customers waiting for a fix for two years!
The ineffective support by Acrocat is not only limited to the charts. The forums are full of customers complaining about usability bugs that have not been addressed for years. Why would the support team of Acrobat promise fixes and yet never actually address issues such as the charts if they cared about their customer?
Another major shortcoming of PDABS is they forgot to include the ability to use fractional weights (.25, .5., .75 ). If you used say a 2.5 pound plate, you have to either round it up or down. This is critical for grip exercises and those that micro-load exercises. Again, this was pointed out to Acrocat nearly two years ago and nothing was ever addressed.
PDABS is really nothing more than an attractive spreadsheet…save your money or use Open Fitness.
