web based project management hosting service hosted on Windows 2003 server

Using our hosting services is the ideal choice for companies who do not have a windows 2000 or 2003 server. Starting at US$15 monthly per user you and your team will have access to 3f Software Planner 24/7.

You can change from the hosting service to hosting yourself any time. If you change from the hosted solution to hosting yourself we will give you the server installation file, your database and uploaded files so that you can setup your system exactly the same way as it is in the hosted environment.

Follow the instructions for setting up a 14-day trial account. Once the 14-day trial is over pay for the number of users you need.

During the free 14-day trial you can enable any of the the modules to test the functionality. When the trial is over you only pay for the modules you want. In other words, if you do not need the Test Management module you don't pay for it.

You can however, at any time, enable any module you want. The cost will be calculated on a pro-rated basis for the current billing period and automatically added to the succeeding month billing.

Each time you pay for your hosted account you also have the option of "turning off" modules you no longer need. For instance if you have used the test management module in a period, but no longer need it, then you can, upon renewal, disable it to avoid any unnecessary payment.

You can, of course, enable it again at a later point in time.

We call that total flexibility!

3f Software Planner is hosted on a Windows 2003 server, dual Xeon 3.0 GHz processor, 2GB Ram and Raid hard disks.

3f Software Planner uses a Microsoft SQL server as database for all packages regardless if you have a one user or 50 user account.

3f Software Planner is hosted on a managed secure server located in a US data center.

3f Software Planner hosting starts at only US$15 monthly per user

When you log into our hosted server your user name and password is always encrypted using 128-bit SSL. (https://). In addition to this you also have the option to encrypt the entire session using 128-bit SSL. Doing so ensures that all the data you send and receive from the server is encrypted making it virtually* impossible to decrypt.

When the free 14-day trial or the current billing period is finished payment is required for continued usage of the service. The new billing period starts on the day following the 14-day trail or current billing period whichever applies. If monthly subscription is choose and the trial or billing period ends on July 7, 2005 at 24:00 hrs. the subsequent billing period starts on the following day, July 8, 2005 at 0:00 hrs. and ends on August 8, 2005 at 24:00 hrs. The time zone you specified when the trial account was setup is used to determine cut off date and time. If no payment has been rendered before 24:00 hrs. on the last day of the trial or billing period we reserve the right to suspend access to the account pending payment. The account will remain suspended until the payment has been rendered.

To renew your subscription you must log into Account Management. Once logged in you are presented with an overview outlining additional charges (if any) you have incurred during the current billing period. Additional charges are incurred when new modules or additional user logins are added in the middle of a billing period. (Such extra charges are paid in the succeeding billing period) You also have an overview outlining when the next billing period starts and the charges for it. (Including extra charges - if any - due to additions made during the previous billing period)

You can, at any time, add or remove login user accounts and modules. This is done during account renewal process. Any addition you make are instantaneously where as removal does not take effect before the current billing period is over.

If you currently have a 6 user accounts with the Gantt Diagram and Planning + Approval Management modules and you want to renew your account 1 week before the current billing period ends but you only want 5 user accounts and you no longer need the Gantt Diagram and Planning module then the following will happen:

Upon login to Account Management you specify your changes before starting the renewal process. Anything you removed will continue to be available until the current billing period is over. In other words, you will continue to have 6 user accounts + the Gantt diagram and Planning module until 24:00 Hrs on the last day of the current billing period.

If you add modules or user accounts then the change is immediate and you will be billed for the time left in the current billing period during checkout
