Well, unless TroopMaster Software has a different policy for PackMaster than they have for TroopMaster and some of their other software, they issue a UNIT license which specifically authorizes you to use as many copies as you want, within the unit. So it appears that two out of your three options have this feature, not just one. I have no interest in PackMaster, but just don't want the decision to be made based on what I consider an incorrect understanding of the facts. Although I do USE TroopMaster and find it an excellent program. But I have not recently tried the competitors. -- Bruce E.

PackMaster is a licensed product of TroopMaster Software, Inc. The license is a unit license, meaning that once a unit purchases the license it may distribute the software to as many people in the unit as it wants to--the Cubmaster, the committee member responsible for advancement, the den leaders, etc.--but it may NOT be shared with anyone outside of the licensed unit; doing so not only violates federal law, but also cheats fellow Scouters Sam and Linda Edwards, who created the software and own the company. I have no affiliation with TroopMaster Software, Inc., but have used both PackMaster and TroopMaster for years and recommend them highly. PackMaster currently sells for $69.95.
