I've tried Deigi and some other record keeping software and nothing was as simple as the "batch track a group" option on this site. My record keeping takes literally about 1.5 minutes for about 50 animals. Maybe I wasn't using Deigi right... but the iherp software is awesome.
As far as the people who run it... it's one guy, named Aaron, a real nice guy who is really into chondros... I don't think you'd have to worry much about super secret ball projects. I get your point, just throwing that out there.
