What is the Difference between Software installed on my computer and an online product like Pet Manager?
Software installed on your computer requires updating everytime changes are made to the software. You are also responsible for backing up your data every day. Should something happen to your computer you may need to recover from a backup and could possibly lose data. Your information is also only available when you are in the office.
With online software like Pet Manager, you don’t have to worry about installing or updating anything or even backing up. All that is done for you. All you need is a modern web browser such as Firefox, Safari or Chrome. If your computer is out of action – swap to a new one or a tablet and keep working immediately! You can also access the software from anywhere in the world!Is my data backed up?
Absolutely. We take data security and availability very seriously. We automatically backup your data every day.
What is the maximum number of runs?
This is one of the benefits of Pet Manager. We offer a 10 run starter edition, a 30 run small business and unlimited runs edition. These runs can be in kennels, cattery and daycare so you get 10,30 or unlimited PER area!

In most cases we can import key information from your existing system. Please contact us with details of your current software product for more details.
