I have found one and only one glucose analysis program that is making a successful effort toward taking the data from a wide range of manufacturers' meters and presenting it in a consistent manner- SiDiary.

Overall it's a good product, but still faces from the last impediment to widespread adoption: human language. It's the product of a small German company, and its English language output is an awkward and incomplete translation produced by volunteers. One way that countries could help their economy recover would be to giving grants to small companies like this one, so that they could hire the resources needed to complete the development of products like this one.
