Upgrades and Updates are handled by us free of charge and the platform is online 24×7.

With this said, Some users may experience issues if they run the system on older hardware and software. The reason for this is down to the nature of how our software works.

In today’s world, to offer a system like ours, we need to utilize some of the Internets greatest and newest features. This includes the newer HTML5 web standard.
