Its far too soon to have a definitive view on the big new feature Coggan's PD model.

The download from is automatic but was slower than via GC which is a big surprise, but that may have been due to lots of new WKO4 users hammering their servers. It feels like very little data is being cached, so slower PCs may struggle with it. It is a little slow to navigate around compared to GC but then we have had more time to optimise and manage caches etc, chart refreshes are 'ok' but not snappy and respopnding to user selection is also 'ok'.

It will be interesting to see where this goes and how widely adopted this is (we could adopt some of the syntax if it becomes popular, but it is a bit ‘weird’ from a programmer's perspective).įrom a performance perspective WKO4 is basically ‘ok’.

They have a number of operators and built-in functions that will return values that can be used both to filter (like in GC) but also as user defined metrics (as planned for v4.0). The expressions are very similar indeed to the data filters we introduced in v3.0. I found the process of actually creating a chart from scratch fairly tedious and tricky, but also very powerful. One area that strikes me as a bit of a risk is placing what they are calling “expressions” at the heart of chart setup. I really like the WKO4 aesthetic and think they've done a really good job on that. This may just be a happy coincidence selecting date ranges and intervals, mouse over axis to isolate curves etc. The overall user experience is much, much more polished than WKO3, and they have adopted a fair few ideas that we introduced into GoldenCheetah. The way charts are managed and the ability to pick from predefined charts and exchange them is functionally available in GC but the WKO4 approach is markedly better from a UX perspective and the inclusion of a community feature for sharing them looks really promising. I may have missed things and there may be errors, but this is a first attempt to compare it with GoldenCheetah.įundamentally it is still a charting program despite claims otherwise but that is not a criticism. Obviously I’m biased and new to WKO4 so here is my views from spending time with it. It is a quantum leap ahead of WKO3, but thats a low bar. Having used it for a couple of days I really like the direction they are heading.
