How much does Priava cost?

Clients that subscribe to the Advanced Permissions module can apply different roles and permissions to these licenses so as to restrict what information individual users have access to , based on their role within your organisation.

Ease of Use

How easy to use is Priava?

Priava has been designed with the end-user in mind. Work across multiple windows & tabs, access real-time availability using the interactive chart, capture and track opportunities, coordinate all of the details for upcoming event bookings, assign user tasks and customise your own reports.

How much training is required?
Priava is a highly intuitive application. It follows a logical process based on best practice standards, so it is easy to understand, with new users finding it easy to pick up. That said, to ensure you get the most out of the system, we offer remote training sessions for all of our new clients. These training sessions are designed for system super users only and are tailored to your business needs including key information about settings, configuration and reporting. Once your super users have completed the initial training, they will be able to share this knowledge with other staff members in your organisation. The reason we limit training to super users is that often staff have questions about business processes, and the super users are best able to answer those questions once trained on Priava.

Cloud Technology

What is the cloud?
Cloud computing is a software delivery model in which resources and data can be accessed on-demand via the internet. The term “cloud” is used to demonstrate the fact that information is readily available anytime, anywhere and users do not need to be in a specific location to gain access to it –it’s almost as if it is floating in the air above you. Be
sure to spot the difference between real and fake cloud by reading our eBook titled “De-mist-yfing the cloud”.
Where is my data?
Priava is hosted on Amazon Web Services to ensure your data is safe and that connection to your database is reliable. This eliminates the risk of any downtime or data loss and ensures business continuity. Currently, Priava has locations in the US, EU, Australia and Canada. Your data will automatically be located in the region closest to you.

Integrations & Data Transfer

Is it possible to export financial information into a separate accounting program?
Yes, you are able to create a financial export which is compatible with most major accounting packages.
Is it possible to integrate Priava with other applications?

Yes, Priava’s REST API has been developed following best practice guidelines to facilitate seamless integration between Priava and other IT applications including, but not limited to, web forms, accounting packages, inventory and marketing systems. Some common integrations that have been implemented by our existing clients include NetSuite, Salesforce, Campaign Monitor, MailChimp, Xero and SAP.

Functionality

Does Priava accept online bookings?

Yes, clients who subscribed to Online Bookings can configure external bookings sites so that they can give people other than their Priava users the power to check availability and create bookings including venues, event details, catering, inventory requirements and process payments all on their own.

System Maintenance

How often do update the system and what does it cost us to update?

The major benefit of the cloud-based system is that these updates are administered remotely and are available for all users to begin immediately so there is no downtime in business hours and no additional costs.
