Why you should use cloud software

There are many handyman software solutions on the market that are available as so-called on-premise software. Such programs usually need to be downloaded or installed from a physical disk, require regular updates, and are often only available locally on a specific computer. The advantage of a cloud-based solution, on the other hand, is that you can access your data from all of your devices at any time — whether in the office or on the go. This not only saves time, but also makes collaboration and flexibility easier in everyday work.

You can create an account directly in your browser and get started. There are no annoying updates, maintenance costs, or crashes afterwards.
The office software is always with you: Whether from the construction site on the tablet or the laptop in the office. You can always access your account.
Absolute security: Your data is always protected and can only be viewed by you. Even in the event of a computer crash, nothing is lost.
Flexibility: Opt for a monthly or annual package. This way, you can be sure that you don't put an unnecessary amount of money into a program.
Traditional software with installation
Before you can get started, you must first download the program and also manually update it.
Data can be lost as a result of crashes or computer failures, as it is stored locally on your computer.
To access your projects, you first have to drive to the office. That can take real time.
