Packmaster (by Troopmaster Software Inc.) is probably the most popular computer-based Pack record keeping program. Many Cub Scout Packs use it and find it to be very helpful with maintaining scout attendance, contact, and advancement information.
Keeping your Pack records electronically rather than on paper can make it much easier to generate summaries of advancements and attendance .
A drawback of Packmaster over web-based systems is that usually all the data must be entered by just one leader which can put a large data-entering burden on him/her.
But if your Pack is looking at adopting a computer record-keeping system, I would recommend taking a look at Packmaster.
