Errors / Bugs We make every attempt to keep our users satisfied with our products. We thoroughly test every product before it is released. After we test the product, we give a limited number of that product to users and elicit their feedback. We release our products only after they have proven to be useful, stable, and according to our knowledge error/bug free. However, because of the myriad of functions within our products, there is a small possibility that an error will make it into the production version of our products. We ask our users to inform us of any issues that arise out of the use of our products. These issues can include suggestions, recommendations, error reports, or new functions that the user would like to see in future versions of our products. All of our products can be simply and effortlessly upgraded to the latest version of that package without any data loss. If one of our users reports a critical error in our product, we immediately resolve that error and make the corrected software available for download on our website. We then e-mail update instructions to all of our users that use that product and are currently registered for support. Non-critical errors are corrected in the next release of that product. Liability We make every effort to assist our users in keeping their information safe. Our backup program allows our users to easily backup and store their data. Because our products are written in Microsoft Access 2002/XP, there should be no compatibility issues with Windows operating systems. That being said, hard drives crash and computers break. By using our products, our users agree that our liability is limited to replacing our software on CD-Rom / DVD only. We are not responsible for lost data, time and effort required to re-enter data, or anything else except replacing our software. Software Piracy Software piracy is an important issue to us. Our revenue and growth depends on users of our products purchasing those products. Because all software can be duplicated and distributed without reimbursing the creator and owner of that software, we cannot ensure that all users of our products have purchased those products. Unauthorized users of our products will not receive any support and will further be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. Our products save our users time and make them money. We hope that users of our products see their value and do the right thing. Privacy Policy We do not sell or offer any information about our clients/users to any outside parties. We do occassionally ask current users to provide testimonials.

"Value. Childcare Sage is relatively inexpensive and because it is so
comprehensive, you are definitely getting the best bang for
your buck."
Testimonials
1) "What a wonderful program. Tried the competitors trials and this is so much simpler to use." Mary M. Childcare Haven, Ohio
2) "Your customer service was so helpful with our installation questions. This program is so user friendly. "Bill J. Montessori Learning Schools Maryland
3) The Childcare Sage software has so many features and was literally more that half the price or the competition. We love it." Betty B. California Learning Academy
4) " Love this program. Looked at the web based offering but the customer service person explained why that was not the way to go. She was so right. A friend went with web based and four times my price and sure enough the internet goes down and they can't use it." Dale D. Missouri
Child Care Sage Differentiators:

3) The Childcare Sage can be networked and can be installed on multiple computers (including home computers, laptops, etc.) when used for the same center without additional seat licenses.
4) The
Childcare Sage offers
unique billing customization to automate how your
center bills, instead of making you change how you bill, or
making you manually enter charges.
5) The developers of the Childcare Sage, B & I Computer Consultants, have a 10 year history of providing top notch professional software and support, with over 7,000 highly satisfied current users.
6) The Childcare Sage costs less than 1/5 the price of some of our competitors, and our software is much less expensive than web-based programs that you lease each month.
7) Childcare Sage has more features and benefits than any other software on the market and we have the ability to add custom reporting on a one off basis. Need something customized just ask!
