Koi Keepers Assistant is the most complete management software available for the Koi enthusiast.

I had been looking at 1-2 Koi software programs out there and bought one from England, I soon found that there was a lack of correct information and it was not easy to use. I then decided to put my own software together. I contacted my webmaster and presented my idea and thoughts. Soon after that it became a reality! We were able to bring an author of software well revered by the oil companies in decades past on staff.

 

Our development team was headed by Michael Satterwhite. Michael has been active in software development for over 30 years. He started developing solutions for Oil & Gas at a refinery in Texas, and quickly progressed to performing Operating System support on mainframe computers manufactured by IBM, Control Data Corporation and Sperry (at the time, Sperry Univac). When personal computers came on the scene, he saw their potential early on. When he started working on them, all instructions for upgrading a system began with the phrase "Make sure your soldering iron is hot".

Over the years, he has worked on process control systems, process monitoring system, developed a trading system for an energy gathering system, and been active in the Open Source arena. When asked if something is possible on a computer, he's quick to respond "Wrong question. Anything is possible. The question is whether or not it's practical". It is this "can-do" philosophy that he brings to KoiSoftware.

We would like to acknowledge the tireless efforts of those people who have contributed in both information, suggestions, and quality analysis during our Beta-Testing and current.  We are certain you will recognize a few of these names:

*       Dr. Eric Johnson DVM  (USA)
Trevor Pearson (England)
Tom & Kathy Coughlin (USA)
Mark Lawson  (USA)

 

Design and Other Technical

*       Theophine Valumkal (India)
Michael Oleksak (USA)

 

Not only will you be able to keep detailed records of your Koi and the ponds they inhabit, but you will have direct access to health information and even basic varieties identification.

With this software you can record information about your Koi and your ponds for easy retrieval and display. Each Koi will have a detailed record that will ensure that you can see any information you require.

Water quality can now be easily recorded and charted so you can see trends before it's too late. This software will enable you to keep track of the quality of the water in your ponds by allowing you to record your water tests, and then chart the results by date.

Koi Keepers Assistant will check your records to make sure you have adequate water flow through your filtration system.  It will also automatically calculate your ponds volume and recommend liner sizes, pump sizes and more.

There are several reports included with the application so that you may view information about various aspects of your Koi and ponds, including graphs displaying results of water tests, Koi show results, Growth and even medical treatment records.


As a added bonus we have added a photo editing program free of charge. Why spend 600.00-700.00 for photo shop when we give you the tools. “Gimp for Windows”

The Gimp is a high end Graphics Editor that runs on multiple platforms, including Windows. As you will be working with pictures of your Koi and Ponds, we are pleased to include it as part of our installation package.

 

I feel that over time and with new input from various sources Koi Keepers Assistance will become a leading software for Koi enthusiast. We our working on Version 2.0.0 and will be out sometime in spring of 2006.
