    I'm going to buy the print version, which has Greek and English side by side in parallel format, which is not doable in Logos. You have to switch back and forth between Greek and English to do both. One pro is the ability to switch versions on the fly, which is quite handy. But still...I'm going with the print version.

    This is surely not what I expected. There is no alignment between the passages like in the printed version. This is kind of useless. Buy the printed version instead. Also, I have seen bad comments and ratings going back to 2013, that was enough time for them to fix the problem. Just gonna return the book and get the money back.

    This is a wonderful resource in print. Unfortunately, the electronic version is lacking major functionality which a forum search shows has been on the back burner since 2009. It does allows you to switch Bible versions, but unfortunately (1) you cannot highlight words in the Synopsis to compare details between accounts and (2) it only aligns at the pericope level, not the individual word level like the print version. So, you lose the intra-pericope comparison functionality and the ability to even do it yourself with highlighting. For example, in the Feeding of the Five Thousand, in all four Gospels, you just get four passages as chunks of text. The print edition spreads out individual words in each account so you can easily see what is unique for each author. In service to prospective buyers, I wouldn't call this "phenomenal". It is lacking a large piece of what makes the print resource helpful. I hope Logos can improve this resource.

    Compared to the print edition this is almost useless.

    The Logos version of this product is a truly phenomenal aid to study of the Gospels. Unlike the book version (which is quite good), the Logos version allows you to easily switch between the Greek and any translation (English, Spanish, Latin Vulgate, Syriac Peshitta, etc.) you'd like. And you can quickly search for specific Gospel passages that interest you, without flipping back to an index. A perfect example of how Logos transforms biblical study.
