Cloud Service vs Install Inhouse
Cloud Service
With the cloud service, users will access the Flexi Time Planner via our website, using a web browser such as Chrome, Firefox, or Edge. No installations are required on your organisation's PCs, and we will provide all the infrastructure required to run the service.
There is a monthly per user fee to provide this service, which can be paid monthly, three-monthly, six-monthly or annually. As part of the price we provide you with free system setup and configuration, ongoing technical support by email or phone, system enhancements and database backups.
Install Inhouse
With the inhouse installation, you need to have a Windows web server on which you will install the Flexi Time Planner software. Users will access the service via a web browser such as Chrome, Firefox or Edge using the web address you provide them.
You need to have the following technologies available inhouse:
- Windows Server 2019 or above
- Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 10 or above
- .NET Framework 4.7.2 or above – free from Microsoft
- SQL Server 2019 or above – the free SQL Express Edition may be sufficient if you do not already have a licensed version
The cost to install inhouse is based on the number of user licences required – please note there is a minimum cost which represents approximately 15 users.
If necessary, we can provide free assistance with the initial installation via remote desktop software.
There are no further mandatory costs – however, if you want ongoing support and maintenance for the system, this will be charged at 15% of the total user licences cost per annum. Annual support and maintenance will provide you with technical support by email or phone and system enhancements.
