I have been using the Edge 1000 for 3 years, riding about 11k miles per year and I have never lost any workout or data. Zero.
It can be a little quirky at times when using maps however, once you use maps a while these quirks become entirely manageable.
It’s an solid unit and I have never heard comments about losing workouts. But I can only speak for the Edge 1000. Yet I have riding friends with the 510 and 820 and never heard them complain either.
Garmin software typically is buggy on the first release. Once mature it seems to work fine. The Edge units provide a full complement of performance data, and you get normalized power using the Industry standard sum of squares formula (Training Peaks), not some off the wall estimation.
