What is the difference between the tiers?: All tiers include the full Caydem accounting feature set. The tiers differ in where your data lives and who manages the infrastructure. Single System runs locally on one machine. Server and Appliance run on your own hardware or VM with multi-user access. Cloud is fully hosted and managed by Pivoten.
Who owns my data?: You do, in every tier. On Single System, Server, and Appliance, your books live in a database that you control — Caydem reads and writes to it, but the data is yours. On Cloud, Pivoten manages the infrastructure on your behalf, but the data remains yours and is exportable at any time.
What is the difference between Server and Appliance?: Both run on your own infrastructure. Server is a standard deployment onto a server you already manage. Appliance is a pre-configured hardware or VM package — less setup, ready to run out of the box.
Can I start on Single System and upgrade later?: Yes. Because Caydem is the same application across every tier, you can begin with a Single System deployment and later migrate your database to a Server, Appliance, or Cloud. Your chart of accounts, history, and settings come with you.
