Good software for Vantage Pro 2 Plus

(1/3) > >>

chpal:
I have a Vantage Pro 2 plus where I use Davis' own software on my PC. Now I would like to have another better software for my PC (Win 11) that works well with my station. I have looked at Weather Display and Cumulus, but I find it difficult to choose and maybe there are others that are better. Suggestions are welcome.

chief-david:
I am all in on Weather Display. But using them  at the same time is nearly impossible.

That is the fault of davis, not any software.

weatherdoc:
I've been using WD for 20 years. I would say it is a bit complex with a learning curve, but it's very flexible and powerful.

johnd:
Weather Display and CumulusMX (not the original Cumulus which is now a legacy app) are the two most obvious and most popular candidates. There are several others but not with the popularity of WD or CMX, which should tell you something.

I suspect that most users who have tried both would plump for CumulusMX as the best compromise for features and ease of use (plus free and well-supported).

CumulusMX now has a Weatherlink data converter so your existing Weatherlink .wlk data can be imported in a new CumulusMX install.

Enjoy,
