We will be providing technical support for Billings Pro Self-Serve client on 10.13, Servers running 10.12 and iOS 11 until February 28, 2019.
Every year when Apple releases a new version of iOS or Mac OS, there is always development work needed to make Billings Pro compatible. We will no longer be updating Billings Pro Self-Serve, so if you cannot move to Billing Pro Cloud, we recommend you avoid updating your iOS and Mac OS as we cannot guarantee they will be compatible.
Billings Pro Self-Serve will not be compatible with Apple's next OS update. To use Billings Pro on a new Mac or iPhone/iPad after Apple's next OS update, you'll need to move to Cloud.
We will not be selling Billings Pro Self-Serve licenses for new databases. If you need to buy additional licenses for new team members while Billings Pro Self-Serve is still supported, please contact us.
Yes, privacy and security are high priorities for us and we are aware they are concerns for many customers. We take vast security measures to make sure your data is secure. The security precautions we take are far more advanced than those of most Self-Serve setups. While some customers feel their self-hosted database is more secure because they are a small company, this is not true.
If you have specific questions about security, you can contact us at privacy-officer@marketcircle.com
We understand privacy is also a concern. As a Canadian company, we are PIPEDA compliant.

Marketcircle takes it privacy responsibilities very seriously and is committed to (i) building an internal culture of protection and security; and (ii) protecting and safeguarding your data in accordance with its Privacy Policy and applicable Canadian laws.

The Personal Information Protection & Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), is Canada’s federal private sector law that applies to most Canadian organizations and governs how private sector organizations collect, use and disclose personal information in the course of commercial business. To date, the European Commission has found Canada to be among the countries providing adequate protection for EU citizens and businesses as specified here.
We are currently reviewing our processes and procedures regarding the GDPR and will provide you with a readiness update soon.
In the meantime, if you require a Data Processing Addendum or if you have any questions about our privacy practices, please email privacy-officer@marketcircle.com.

Visit How do I migrate from Billings Pro Self-Serve to Billings Pro Cloud?
There is no trial period when migrating to Billings Pro Cloud. The day your migration to Billings Pro Cloud is finsihed your payment cycle will begin.
Billings Pro Cloud is not a web app. It is still the Mac, iPhone, and iPad app that lets you work mostly offline, with the convenience of syncing in the Cloud so you don't have to manage the server. To generate Invoices, Estimates and Statements, you do require an internet connection.
Your backups are still available and you would be able to restore to this backup in Billings Pro Server Admin, however any data added to Billings Pro Cloud after the backup was created would not be available in this backup.
If you have accidentally deleted a Client, Project, or Slip in Billings Pro on your Mac and would like recover it, contact us immediately.
We strongly recommend you use only one database, however if you decide to use more than one database you would need to subscribe to both accounts. Databases cannot be merged, it is not easy to swap accounts on iOS.
