About the Company
Robert Dayton is the developer and owner with his fiancée, Luey Anderson. Rob owned a large process serving agency in Florida in the mid 90’s and could not find software that met the needs of his company. From that experience he developed his own software, which at that time became Dforce. It was the first web-based process serving software on the market, and ahead of it’s time in the technology of the process serving industry. About a year ago Rob began working on a new product with even more features and advanced technology, and we introduced LoyalDog to the public in 2005.

What should a process server look for when choosing a product?
A superior product combined with a good working relationship with the software provider is very important. Make sure your software provider is committed to the business and has been around for awhile. Find a reliable product that has strong and friendly customer support or you could end up with an unsupported product. Choose your software provider the way you would choose your accountant or doctor! Running your business is very personal and important to you and it is vital to work with a product and company you can trust.
Watch closely for spin. Some providers may cloud an important issue or feature with spin. Your software provider should take the time to explain things to you so that you understand them clearly and should not try to take advantage of any fears and concerns that you might have. Look for a software provider that keeps your company’s best interests at the forefront.
A technologically advanced, customizable, and easy to use program is also vital. Meeting the requests of your own clients for a certain feature on your website or a special report, for instance, can make a huge difference in your success in getting and keeping those valuable clients! When you are looking for a software solution for your business make sure that the provider can meet and even exceed the needs of your business not just now, but in the future!
What are the key technology issues facing the process serving industry?
Interconnectivity is a huge issue facing the process serving industry. Law Offices and individuals as well are becoming more technologically advanced and the process serving industry needs to address that issue. Process serving agency clients want access to more information and they want to interact quickly and reliably with their process service agency. An agency needs to be able to import and export large amounts of data easily. High volume accounts may want to give you an excel file with a few hundred jobs in it and get back an excel file with a few hundred serves in it. They want to do much more than just check status from your website, and it is key to the success of process servers that they can adapt their businesses to meeting and exceeding the technological requirements of their customers.
Does your product address these issues? If so, how?
We provide these features with the basic structure of our software, and we are continually evolving to stay ahead of the demand for innovations in the technological aspect of the process serving industry.
