    New Tracking Software.
    Some of you may already know about it but for those who don't Vyp3r and HerperPro have combined forces and released their new software. I have been using it since it came out and I think it is great.

    There is a PC and a MAC version. I know a lot of people have been looking for that. They have the ablitity to do some things from your phone using QR codes. It is just amazing.

    To ad something else their support is awesome. I had a few problems when they just started and I had an email back about my issue in a couple of hours letting me know they were working on the issue and then several emails letting me know that they were still working on it and letting me know different things to try. If you want to have a look at it just follow the link. It is worth checking out.

    Also just so you know there is a trial version for MAC

    Thanks for the kind words guys.

    Here's a quick "for your eyes only" screenshot of the new reports page we're working on. It'll be released with v0.98, which will also be the CD-Rom release version.

    Robert - I've been considering just building a database for tracking, but may check this out. Do you know of anyone who has tried running the Windows version through Linux via Wine?

    I actually do not. Someone asked a week or so ago, and I have yet to setup a *nix box to check. If you do test yourself, send me an e-mail at robert@herperpro.com - I'd love to hear the results.

    The demo/trial version is the same code as the full version, so you can test with either of those.

    OK, before this gets out of hand.

    We do NOT allow affiliate links - in your sigs or your posts.

    It is advertising and we only allow that in the for sale forum or the PM system.

    Pack it in. :mad:

    Just started using this a couple weeks ago.... one tip.. BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP!. haha If you update it wipes all your database out so you need to import your backup file after updating. I figured this out the hard way. :(

    We're trying to make the software more intuitive with each update. The v96 and v97 both have warnings on install to go backup, and restore when updating.

    Sorry you lost some data! Hope you had a recent backup to import.

    I'm still waiting to get the link for the trial version so I can see how I like it before I purchase it.

    Yea I figured it out after I did it on my PC. The first time I did it on my laptop and all I saw was something about confirming orders individually and I never seen the part where it said to click on My Account for the link. Thanks for the prompt response though.

    the goMobile component is free for up to 50 animals, so there is a small portion of people that would need to subscribe. We have invested heavily in the mobile platform, and have some great features planned, that we feel the ~$7/mo is a small price to pay for us to continually maintain, and improve that platform.

    Thanks for the kind words about the software!

    Oh I totally agree..the software and more specifically the goMobile side of things is what I've been looking for in a tracking software. I've been poking around the software and can say the more I see the more I like.. I will be buying the full version and a yearly goMobile subscription.. I like it that much..

    I keep track of a couple of hundred animals so the easier it is for me to keep track of them the more I can focus on the animals and not the paperwork.

    I'll be making a purchase as soon as I get home. I like iherp.com, but I think this software will suit me better.

    Hi,

    Is there any way to import data from other software?

    If so what file formats would work?

    We're working on the Degei import now, however it likely won't be ready until Sept/Oct. Really, we only need sample data to be able to determine the possibility, and then work out the scripting.

    If you have data that you're interested in importing, send me a PM, and we'll see what we can do. If it's easy enough, it shouldn't be a problem.

    In order to have the ability to edit the files from your phone you have to pay per month in addition to paying for the software?

    Only if you want to manage 50 or more animals with mobile. You can manage unlimited with the software, and using the mobile interface, up to 50.

    No problem. We felt that only the heaviest users should have to share the server costs, and development costs of the mobile component.

    So I guess my last question before I buy is, when you make these updates that are tweaks to the main program how long will existing customers get these updates for free or will we have to pay for them?

    Updates all the way through to version 2.0 will be free. There will be an upgrade fee at v2.0, but we haven't even begun work in v2.0, and we won't for a very long time (couple years). There will never be a "required" upgrade fee. If you're happy with the software you're running, no need to buy anything else.
