Because you place the software on your webserver, you do not need any tools on your own computer, but you can use all of Pivot's functionality through your web browser. This way you can use your Pivot from wherever you like, once you have it up and running.
Pivot requires no additional libraries to run, nor any databases like MySql. This is because we want to make a tool that is useable by as many people as possible.

- Easy to upload and include pictures with your log-entries;
