Commitment to Quality
Most software is licensed "as is", or as Microsoft says in the license agreement for Offic:mac 2004, AS IS AND WITH ALL FAULTS. By contrast, Sheep Systems' products are guaranteed to work, and it says so in your license. I achieve this by methodical design and careful testing.
During the public beta test of Bookdog 4.2, after 1200 downloads, only one bug was reported, but it turned out to be an old bug that I fixed, as usual, the next day.
On two separate occasions, single users had reported some unbelieveable bugs in reviews of Bookdog. As part of the quality commitment, I replied to the reviews offering $100 USD rewards to anyone that could reproduce the reported bug. But no reward claims have ever been received.
Trivia
To keep my products up to date with the Mac OS, Sheep Systems is a Select member of the Apple Developer Connection.
This website was developed using Sandvox, and is hosted on a shared server by Hosting Zoom. The "stock" icons on the site were created by Jasper Hauser or Matt Ball.
The movies on this website were shot with Snapz Pro X, and the audio was recorded with Amadeus Pro or GarageBand.
The development team usually relaxes by running around the neighborhood after a hard day's work, looking for lost sheep, cats, and squirrels.
