| I have been looking around for a new online scheduling program for our little FBO. The one we currently use has had really bad customer service towards us and will not enforce any of the scheduling rules we have it set for. Basically i was wondering what programs you guys have used? your likes/dislikes? and what programs you might recommend. The 2 I have tentatively narrowed it down to are FlightSchedule Pro or MyFbo.com. Anybody have any experience with any of those? Thanks |

| FlightSchedule Pro is pretty good, if expensive.

| FSP worked good when I was managing my little flight school. 5 planes 3 CFIs think it cost $50 or $60 a month. It actually ended up saving us money because of the efficiency we gained.

| Old Skool | We used Schedule Point at Skymates. Never had any problems with it.

| I have used FSP and MyFBO and preferred MyFBO. I found it easier as an instructor to set up my availability and schedule flights in general. |

| Junior Member | MyFBO is what my flight school uses. It's very sophisticated. It does everything it needs to and more. Maybe too much more! |

| Old Skool | MyFBO was what my previous company used. Seemed to work fine. They have since relocated to something else, the same software ERAU uses. |

| i like myfbo. easy to set up for the fbo, use as an inst. or user and has a lot of data that can be flushed out of it as an admin |

| FlightSchedulePro gets my vote. Simple to use...very thorough program. Don't know about the costs though.

| I have used FSP for 7 yrs. The only time I ever had an issue with the software, I received quick attention from the company office to remedy the problem. I've never seen MyFBO so I can't compare, but I'm perfectly happy with FSP.

| Schedulepointe is the one we used to use at the flight school I worked at. I don't know how it is now but back then it was very cheap and the customer service was awesome. The owner would always call personally and make sure everything was going well and he would make sure any problems got dealt with immediately. Ask for Tony. www.schedulepointe.com |

| Our flight school uses skyscheduler. It's basically a full fledged scheduling program where you can list the airplanes you have, and the instructors you have, then schedule planes online as you go. You add students on there and they can pay online, their account balance is kept track of, and the list goes on. You can even put airplane mx on there so if a 100 hour comes up, no one will be able to check that plane out until the 100 hour is finished. It's all here... http://www.skyscheduler.com/

| One place I work at uses MyFBO. I don't have any complaints. Easy to set my schedule and see when I am flying. We don't have the full version so I have no idea of how some of the extra features work.
