What will BDSSync connect to? 
 
Almost anything. BDSSync will connect to any OLEDB or ODBC data source. That means almost any database or file format (csv, text or XML, XBRL) can be accessed.

BDSSync also has several Web Services configurations that allow data to be pulled or pushed over the internet securely.

BDSSync is compatible with MYOB and Quickbooks 'out of the box' and is easily confiogured for the majority of other accounting systems!

Why should I choose to use BDSSync rather than develop a connector myself? 
 
Because you want to spend your time developing your own software, not learning and supporting someone else’s. Accounting software normally has a complex drivers exposing its and somewhat challenging proprietary database. They can also have a number of idiosyncrasies and non-standard behaviours such as separate tables for reading and writing. Write-back is normally vetted by the accounting systems application’s business logic, often making it necessary to understand the required aspect of the accounting system in detail.

With BDSSync you can bypass the majority of the learning curve. You can perform the configuration of BDSSync yourself with a moderate knowledge of the accounting system, or get us to take care of the whole project.

BDSSync can also help with training and support during configuration. We provide free email support on BDSSync-related enquiries.

What knowledge do I need to configure BDSSync myself? 
 
You will need to have a good understanding of the source system and understand the accounting data structures and business rules. For the majority of developers the challenge lies with the last prerequisite.

How long does it take for BDSSync Team to perform an integration? 
 
Not all projects are the same, but safe to say that BDSSync can reduce the development and testing time by as much as 90%. Typical implementations can be achieved with 3-6 days of work - depending on your requirements.

If you are configuring BDSSync yourself you will need to allow time to learn accounting systems data structure, connectors, and business rules, which can be significant.

What happens when I update my software? 
 
Most developers can update their own configuration with relative ease. You can ship an updated configuration file with your upgraded product to your customers, enabling them to continue using BDSSync as they upgrade. The BDSSync Team can help with updating configuration files at minimal cost if required.

What happens when the Accounting System updates their software? 
 
You don’t need to make any changes to your configuration unless you want to take advantage of new functionality being offered by the accounting software. BDSSync will supply a patch that updates BDSSync and your template to ensure ongoing compatibility from the accounting system side.

Who supports BDSSync? 
 
The BDSSync Team is happy to provide support services to all users of our software. This service is built into the annual maintenance fee for the software. Should you wish to support your clients we can provide training and second level support for your staff.

I have a number of customers looking for accounting system integration. Will you develop for them without my direct involvement? 
 
Yes, if we can offset the development costs of the integration with a number of clients. Please contact us to discuss your interest in this matter further.

Do you provide volume licensing and partnership arrangements? 

We are happy to discuss volume licensing, co-branding, reselling agreements and more. More details can be seen in the resellers area of this site.
