I have a Garmin Edge 800
I also own a Mac laptop
Currently i need
Garmin connect - to see and log my rides
Garmin express - to let Garmin connect ...connect to my Edge 800
Garmin Web updater - to update my Edge 800
Garmin Basecamp - If I want to add a waypoint or point of interest (not a route but a point) on my Edge 800 in advance of actually going there
There used to be another bit of software called Communicator that was needed before connect went modern that I don't need any more so I deleted it.
In tandem with this if I do a sportive and get sent the GPX file I cannot import it to Garmin Connect and then send it to my Edge. I was therefore going to use Ride with GPS but guess what? that needs Garmin Communicator to work
Why is there not one piece of software that does everything?
