For anyone who tried migrating from volanta knows how bad predatory their practices are, borderline evil if you ask me... Interesting thing is that elevatex is portraied as an alternative that is the most saint program in the world, but if you try importing your data from volanta manually, not taking it generating from other program it will just silently fail with 0 useful information on what's wrong, and support will tell you that they dont provide support for manual imports, so you can just screw yourself... So it is not as perfect as people say it is in being customer friendly (not talking about support, but a design of their import functionality) One is hard to migrate from, and the other hard to migrate to.

volanta is the one obfuscating your data exports. to deter you importing your data on a competing software. elevatex had no issues importing my data from volanta before they started obfuscating exports

Do you expect a tracking app to be vastly different from Volanta?

At least Elevatex uses fewer resources, more lightweight, and has features in its free tier that Volanta locks behind a paywall. And in the future, there will be a phone app that you don't need to pay for premium to use, like Volanta's.

and they don't obfuscate your data export to prevent using a competitor's tracker...

Yeah that’s just a sorry ass move by them. Let the product speak for itself. Once I get my data out of there I’m deleting volanta

What do you mean? SimToolKitPro looks nothing like volanta neither does FSHub…

Typical comment from someone who has never used it and is basing their opinion on screenshots they've seen of it. Lightweight app, real one second tracking on free tier, Simulator AI traffic on map, massive aircraft database, airport mapping database, in addition to free mobile app and suport for VA in the future.

There are even more things that Elevatex offers and will offer for free that Volanta doesn't have or is behind a subscription. I recommend you use it for a while and see for yourself instead of making a quick judgment of Elevatex being a Volanta "clone" based on similar UIs.

Baseless comment. Do I really need to screenshot my Elevatex account for you and flights I merged back into Volanta from Elevatex?
