Can I really have two or more different offices 'share information between one system? |
Yes. Information on every change is coordinated between the remote offices and
the 'main' office each night. Reports and controls allows you to know what was
updated and by who.

|
How does your syncing process differ from ACT!? |
Book-It is very different from ACT!
- We have more databases that we are updating.
- It is not just a swap of record for record, when our databases sync they also
sync up SQL databases AND can update your site at the same time
- We also offer a more affordable solution with more options.
|
|
Does it cost extra to have Remote Offices? |
It requires you to be on our maintenance plan, if there are several remote
offices then prices can vary, and will quoted at time of purchase.
|
|
How often can we sync our offices? |
Our syncing process is automated and therefore can be set up to run at any time
interval you wish. However, if you do wish to have it updated frequently
then you will need a computer that is dedicated to just the syncing process.
|
|
Do we need a special computer for the syncing process? |
Not a special computer, but if you will be syncing frequently (ex. every twenty
minutes) you will need a computer that is dedicated to just the syncing process.
|
|
Wouldn't there be times where the information may be changed in two different
sites? |
|
Yes - but because how Book-It tracks these changes - 99% of the time, there are
no conflicts. AND on the 1% of the time that there are conflicts - you can
determine what information should be used. |
|
How difficult is it to implement? |
|
Technically, it is pretty simple. The most difficult part is determining who is
going to be the 'main ' office. The main office only is important when
determining the first initial 'sync' process. |
