This software lets us track everything we do in our shelter and on the road. It can create license checks, on line license sales with the ability for the public to upload current rabies certificates, spay/neuter certificates, and photos of their dogs. It tracks all costs and inventories of anything you bring in to our building, it provides all volunteer hours, training and schedules, it maps all outstanding complaints, maps lost and found animal reports, sends texts and emails for licensing and general information, Provides the best complaint reports out there includes restitution requests and all media involved with each case, and has special modules for performing interagency transfers of multiple animals, and automatically provides the fees for any stray animal by looking up the number of redemptions, the number of days in the shelter, if the animal is currently licensed and current vaccination status. One button push gives us all that information. The lost and found system searches all lost or found reports within a chosen circumference from where the animal is lost or found and easily connects the two. This is the most powerful software for animal controls and shelters available and is upgraded continually.

Pros

This software does everything an animal control does or needs all in one software. The Owner is the creator and can add or change the software for very reasonable prices to do anything you need the software to do. That alone is priceless! This software has no yearly licensing fees, so we can put it on as many computers as we want or need with no upcharges or yearly fees.

Cons

We have not found anything this software cannot do.

Reasons for choosing Shelter Management System

No yearly licensing fees, can attach multiple people to animals, multiple owners, care takers, family members, etc.., Ability to personalize the software and all of the dropdowns for our need, and the access to the designer to change or add new functions any time to the software.
