  1. I would take a look at Jobber. It offers way more in the way of scheduling and has detailed reports. And it's cheaper.

     

    I have been using it for almost a year and can't imagine not having it.

     

    Support is very good, they are available to answer any questions and have a weekly webinar that can be very helpful.

     

    S.

  2. How easy is it to work with in the UK? Looks like American software. Also, what is the support like?

     

     

    I have been using jobber for the last 4 months and I love it. They are a Canadian based company, but I am sure you can adjust it for UK tax rates and £'s ect.

     

    The support is very good. Way exceeding expectations.

     

    Free 30 day trial to check it out

  3. I can't really tell from the pics but it doesn't look like there is much of a root plate in the air... With the stem that far over it is not likely that you'll stand it back up.

     

    I would be using a crane for sure. (Not to shamelessly plug my website...) but I have a log weight calculator on it. (Scroll down on the main page, it's on the left)

     

    http://www.burleyboys.com

     

    It is quite accurate. I usually add 10% for a safety margin, then also add weight for limbs. (Then work within the cranes SWL)

     

    That will give you an idea of the size / type of crane you'd need.

     

    If the crab can lift 5,000 lbs, and the calc gives you 4,600 lbs. get a bigger crane....

     

    Good luck
