Does Pet Sitter Plus Integrate with accounting solutions such as Quickbooks and Xero?
Many people who already use an accounting software package such as Quickbooks or Xero understandably feel they would like some sort of integration, so we are planning to introduce integration with both QuickBooks and Xero.
These are development project which are currently on our short term roadmap.
How Is My Data Backed Up?
Live copies of all our client's databases are stored on a redundant disk array. This means that our cloud based hosting solution is resilient to disk failures. At Pet Software Ltd, we take a nightly snapshot (backup) of each database.
You can if you want to but this is not required. Pet Sitter Plus has a full accounts receivable module that provides aged debt analysis, advanced credit control functions, account statements and Sales Tax/VAT/GST analysis. Due to the advanced functionality within Pet Sitter Plus you only have to post day/week or even month totals of cash received to balance your expense management system to Pet Sitter Plus.
