Is the data backed up?

Yes. Our servers have redundant disk drives in a raid configuration. This means the data is written twice, once to each disk drive. If one drive fails (which almost never happens) the other drive is still working. Then each night the data is backed up to another physical server, also with redundant drives forming a super secure data backup system.

Is the data safe and secure?

Yes. Our systems use Microsoft's recommend template for system security. When you authenticate you set a session. The server knows who you are. Every screen is checked (before it serves the page) to make sure you are who you say you are. If not you are kicked out and cannot access the page.

Where is the data hosted?

Data is hosted in a state of the art Internet hosting facility in downtown Los Angeles. We are hosted in close proximity to the Wilshire One Building where the Internet piers on the West Coast. We chose this facility for speed and reliability. Our data center is located in an Internet building designed from the ground up for reliable Internet. The backup power, redundant connections to the Internet, and speed of hosting are all first rate.

Can we export the data if we want?

Our systems come with a web to Microsoft Excel export function. You can download your data (at the click of a button) and load it up into Microsoft Excel. From there you can do whatever you want.

Can I keep certain people from seeing sensitive data?

Our systems are multi-user systems and each comes with a User Administration section. As the system administrator you have the top priority: user level five. As administrator you access people into the system, giving them a username and password. You also set their security level, one through five. Fives can go everywhere and do everything. Ones can view only.

Do we need any special equipment or software?

All you need is a connection to the Internet. Many software companies include client-side code in their systems. Client-side code is software that executes in the browser. It is generally used to trick out the browser making it do something it isn't intended to do. While it can be neat in certain applications it also makes the entire system dependent upon a certain browser. Our software will run on any operating system and any browser. If you can get to the Internet you can run your system.

Can we install the software on our computers?

We don't offer installable versions of our software. Our products are remotely hosted products. There are important reasons for this. We support our systems fully.

Can you customize the software for us?

Our software is offered in standard configuration. If you come upon a modification you have to have we have two choices.
