As most of my friends now, I am a firm believer in Logos bible software. Let me give a few reasons why:
1. It is by far the largest collection out there, which means you can do one search and get lots of results, not just from two or three commentaries. "It has critical mass."
2. The software is extensive, and has a substantial community backing it. There are newsgroups, training videos, and a blog, for instance. Last time I checked, I couldn't even find a product page for Zondervan's Pradis, other than a mention with a few product bundles they offered. It also offers a format that other publishers can write to, and software to write your own books. "It's around to stay."
3. Logos does a marvelous job getting you quick access to extensive search results. I especially like that you don't have to wait for the search to complete, but that it shows what it has already found as it continues searching. "It gets the job done."
4. There's great student pricing. "It's a great value."
I ought to write a few more, but my lunch break is only so long... Sorry.
Addendum: Logos would love to do a link exchange with you: you add them to your blogroll, and they put you into an April 28 post (if you tell them about it).
