Plutus Desktop

Easier to install, update and start.

updates / in place

Updates install over the top

A new version installs over the one you have. The installer closes the app's own database and server first, and leaves any other PostgreSQL alone.

startup / visible

You can see it start

A window opens straight away and shows each startup step. If the app can't start, it says why and offers to try again.

install / lighter

A much smaller install

The installer no longer carries a second, unused copy of the web toolkit, so it unpacks and scans far faster.

data / local

Your data stays on your machine

The database and server run on your own computer, so the books and payroll keep working without a connection.
