Is Garmin Connect possibly the most User UNfriendly interface ever?

Throw it out and start all over again. This is the most cumbersome piece of "software" I have ever seen.

    Everything worked great until the Garmin Express "upgrade" a few months. Buggy ever since. And now not working at all. Posted my exact problem on other threads, so won't repeat here. The point here is that Garmin is eroding its goodwill with its current software interface. Needs to improve quickly or it will lose me as a customer.
  • I stayed, stay and will stay on Garmin Connect classic...
  • Modern works fine for me, you may find reading here helps

    Horrendously slow or fails to load. Garmin, how can you create a satellite watch that records exactly where I am within a few feet, yet totally fail to create a usuable and responsive website???
  • Loads pretty much instantaneously on my PC. If you're having issues it's almost certainly a problem within your system.

    I detest the new layout.

    Hate the new layout. Takes forever to load, if it loads at all. It was great before all,the "improvements".
    It's enough to make me want to get a different competitor's watch.

    Because those are two different worlds and they haven't realized that.
  • Garmin is a big software fail... Software van garmin is bad.. has alwas been and it never getting better I think.
  • SUSSAMB (moderator), I wish it was as easy as simply being a problem with mt PC, I would be able to fix the problem. However, it's not a problem within my/our system. All my friends who use Garmin Forerunner 310XT are having the same problem, as well as a lot of people I see commenting both here and at the Facebook Garmin Connect page. Like others have said, ever since I went to the Modern version "Express" there have been problems. At first it was just not syncing with MapMyRun which I use for logging my gear used. Now, (since August 25th) the problem is even more serious and frustrating since my data from my runs will not upload from my Garmin Forerunner 310XT watch to the Connect page. I'm an ultra runner and need to see my data for training purposes. Very frustrating!
