Why Use an online service when I can install software at home?

Web based software goes where you go and is always available. All you need is an internet connection! If you purchase software to install on your computer, and you want to access it from multiple computers, you will have to deal with a LAN (local area network) or run separate copies of the software. Running more than one copy of the software means data you entered in your barn is not present on your computer in the den.

With a web service, you will not have to install upgrades as they become available, they will be there the next time you login. An on-line service is more interactive, allowing you to benefit from the power of a group. In the future, a large user group may become eligible for discounts from other web providers. This is all part of our "vision".

Will HorseLogs Administrators ever ask for personal or financial information through email?

No. Equine Data Services or any other reputable company will never ask you to send any personal or financial information through email. There have been several fraudulent attempts to impersonate banks and other large institutions through emails that look very legitimate, and sometimes even hold the company logo. Never send any private information through email, or online chats like MSN!

How will I know my data is secure?

Equine Data Services has applied an encrypted site certificate to web pages where you add information so data you send across the internet is secure. We are comfortable that our newly selected host is securing their servers and network to very high standards. Our provider, 1&1 Internet Inc. is the world’s largest web host, and the fastest growing with a global community of 3.7 million people. They report financial stability, with comfortable profits, and we believe they will be available to serve and protect our website for many years to come. Our company will not succeed if our data (your data) is not secure. Click Here to read about the 1&1 data center.

Software installed on your local computer may provide a false sense of security. If you have an internet connection that is "always" on, you are probably vulnerable.
