On networks with two or more users, AbacusLaw requires a server or PC not assigned to an individual user.

Abacus specifies a dedicated server because we know your data is valuable to your practice. Any workstation running multiple programs (desktop or laptop) has a much higher chance of locking up and corrupting irreplaceable data. Other companies are willing to expose you to that risk. We are not.
