Here's some more suggestions:

* Single focus screen in WT - its almost impossible to get lost in another window. If you do loose focus from the main screen, its easy to get back.

* N1MM is based on Microsoft Access Database architecture. It may have improved these days, however traditionally it was not so reliable for networking; much better as a 'stand-alone' database.

* Personally, I find WT less 'cluttered' than other software, but I guess that's rather a subjective view.

*  As has been previously stated, I think its robustness in a local network environment has to be one of its strongest selling points.

* N1MM has become a 'contest logger for all' to its own detriment I believe (i.e. too many enhancement requests are accepted). The WT developers have a strategy that they are generally sticking to - this may result in some disappointed users, however I believe it makes the product more robust by minimizing change (for example the requests for ESM etc being declined).

Just a few thoughts, hope they are of use..

------------------------------------------
If anyone on this list has used Writelog or N1MM, but then settled on
Win-Test, what do you see as the main advantages of Win-test over these
other two programs?  A feature-by-feature comparison table isn't that
helpful; please describe the most important differences.
