Any suggestions on deco palnning software?
Just starting to get into this, and want to find out what people have used, and pro's and con's of the different products.

I use V planner.  But see what your instructor recommends!!  Just having the software isn't quite enough.

I use V-Planner. It hasn't let me down yet. I don't have any experience with some of the others out there though.

there's also decochek 

its free for dives to 120'... so i guess you can try before you commit to buy it
the phone version is totally free i think

My instructor had recommended a couple different ones. So, I was trying to narrow down to what the experienced users have been using.

In that case!!  V planner set to work on about the same Sched as the VR3 is a +1 or 2 for conservatism.  Real easy to use they are great about updates Has other aps for blending an top offs.  I have used some others but I do like Vplanner.  Most of the people in people in our group use it so we are genrally on the same padge.

Another question: What about a planner that utilizes the the same bubble model as my dc. Should I be looking towards those. Or do the models tend to be pretty close?
