What is Business Software?

Can you explain your pricing plans?
We have 3 business plans, they are:
- Individual Plan
- Small Business Plan
- Enterprise Plan
Individual Plan: The individual plan is intended for the solo business owner. If you are a driving instructor, consultant, tutor, teacher, therapist, or health care worker that works for yourself, this plan is intended for you. Manage your schedule, finances; billing and expenses and clients quickly and easily. This plan does not offer online payment processing, multiple tutors, or staff.
Small Business Plan: The small business plan is great for small businesses. It provides all of the business management features you come to expect from a premium software service. The small business plan does not provide access to the HR Advanced features, API or Text Messaging. If you have tutors and/or staff that are paid by salary (not paid according to appointments / session) you will want to look at the Enterprise Plan. In addition, if you need to manage deductions, such as: income tax, union dues, health care plans, etc you will want to have access to the HR advanced features offered by the Enterprise Plan.
Enterprise Plan: The enterprise plan provides access to all features of this business management software. You can choose to pay your tutors according to sessions they complete or a salary rate you set. There are two types of salary pay: hourly and annual. Your staff members are paid using one of these two salary types. You use timesheets to track salary tutors and staff. Furthermore, the HR advanced features allows you to set up deductions; income tax, union dues, health care plans, etc. This plan is great for large businesses. Additional features only provided by the Enterprise Plan include: access to the API service and Text messaging reminders. We continue to add features on a regular basis.
Why fixed pricing should matter to you?
Virtually all business management software platforms employ variable pricing. Bizstim is one of the only companies to extend fixed pricing for its plans.
Why does that matter?
Most businesses start small. In the beginning a small business typically pays the minimum amount in a variable pricing plan. Unfortunately, as the business grows, the cost of using the software increases. Variable plans employ an exponential increase in price with respect to business size. This means, as your business grows, the cost of using the software becomes "relatively" greater. You are in effect charged more for the same product.
Bizstim business management software provides fixed pricing. Therefore, regardless of your size, you know exactly what you will be paying every month.
Fixed pricing is more cost effective, better for budgeting, and signals our companies desire to see you; our client, become more profitable and successful.
We have a large volume cost for companies with over 2500 sessions in a month. This cost pays for the increased demand for resources and maintenance. This cost ensures a great user experience.
LARGE VOLUME COSTS EXAMPLE
The table below depicts several businesses with large volume costs:
| COMPANY | # SESSIONS | ADD COST |
|---|---|---|
| A | 500 | $0 |
| B | 2,500 | $75 |
| C | 5,000 | $150 |
| D | 7,500 | $225 |
| E | 10,000 | $300 |
These costs are added to your monthly subscription fee.
If you have fewer than 2500 sessions in a month there is NO large volume cost.
Do I have to install anything?
Absolutely not! You don't have to install our software because it's a cloud-based application. If you know how to navigate on the Internet, enter a username and password, you're good to go!
How easy is this software to use?
Our application is extremely easy to use. We don't use multi-leveled navigation so there's no need to click needlessly and endlessly. We have shortcut icons on every page in the same location for commonly used tasks. There is a variety of tool tips and pop-ups should you require additional help.
Smart Dashboard™ ensures you and your staff are made aware of vital information. When tasks are completed, Smart Dashboard™ no longer displays them, thereby de-cluttering the page. Inversely, Smart Dashboard™ arranges information for your clients taking into consideration what they look for 90% of the time. This improves overall user experience and promotes use of the business tool. You save time and your business runs more efficiently.

- protection of your login credentials using bcrypt algorithm
- encrypted link between you and our servers with secure socket layer (SSL)
- cross-site request forgery (CSRF) protection site-wide
