Q: If we purchase one program type, can we later switch to the other?
A: Yes, you can, and all of your data will be transferred as well. Obviously, any applicable fees and credits would be determined on a case-by-case basis.
Q: Does the web-based program run in a web browser?
A: Not at all. Programs that run in a web browser are limited to that environment’s functionality. Caterease Connect™ uses Citrix Server technology to allow you to access Caterease and all of its amazing features from any computer with an internet connection.
