Ditto. I use them both every day. Use them both for a while and decide yourself whether you want one or both. Now and then one or the other gets the heebee jeebees when the aliens are in attack mode. So you'd always have a backup -- as well as a means by which to validate any surprising data or graphs that show up on the main one you use ; i.e., by checking with the other software.NateS wrote: "There are some things I like much better in the SleepyHead program, and there are some things I like much better in the ResScan program. Both can be obtained without any cost.

In general, SleepyHead has more attractive cosmetics and some different graphical data presentation and, therefore, may be a little easier for some users to interpret the graphs/data. It's also a development work in progress that comes from one of our own cpaptalk.com members, Jedimark, and he responds to input from users. On the other hand ResScan has a cleaner, neater look to me. ResScan has been around longer, is in wider use, seems more solid and reliable to me and is professionally recognized in the medical, and probably legal worlds. SleepyHead is still in Beta and known to have a few more or less inconsequential bugs. ResScan was designed for use by doctors and sleep technicians for multiple patients' data. It is somewhat 'heavier' and not as quick as SleepyHead. So they really are different and each has its strengths and weaknesses relative to the other.
