    30-day Free Trials

    When you subscribe to any paying plan you get 30-days free trial. If you decide to make a payment before the 30 days are over, your card will be charged but the remaining days will be kept. So if you open your account on the 15th and you pay on the 5th, you will be billed in advance for the new cycle that starts on the 15th. 

    Plan Migration

    When you migrate from a paying plan to another paying plan your monthly billed will be prorated. If you migrate from the Free plan to a paying plan your account won't qualify for the 30-days free trial, even if you have subscribed less than 30 days ago.

    Annual plans can not be downgraded.  Annual plans get 2 months for free and can not be downgraded. When upgrading a plan before the renewal date, the current plan will be cancelled and the new plan will be activated for 12 months WITHOUT the 2 free months


  • Monthly and Annual Plans - Methods of payment

    MONTHLY

    The best way to pay for your Osmos plan is by Credit Card. You will be billed monthly on the same day that you subscribe and your plan will be active right away. You can cancel anytime; this will stop the recurring billing. 

    ANNUALLY 

    If you wish to subscribe to an annual plan you can pay by making a wire transfer to our Bank in Canada or Mexico (Only for clients in Mexico). We will need to provide you with a quote and the bank details. Once the payment is confirmed from our end your plan will be active within the next 24 hours. You can not cancel an annual plan. The plans are renewed every year and you can decide to switch to be billed monthly or annually. 

    Annual plans get 2 months for free and can not be downgraded. When upgrading a plan before the renewal date, the current plan will be cancelled and the new plan will be activated for 12 months WITHOUT the 2 free months

Osmos Cloud

  • Why was Osmos created?

    Osmos Cloud was created to provide a SALES TOOL for businesses that want to save time and increase sales by automating the QUOTING process.

    Instead of using tools that were not designed for quote creation such as Word, Excel and PowerPoint; with Osmos you can send and create beautiful quotes in SECONDS from ANYWHERE.

  • Where does Osmos keep my information?

    All your information is kept safe and secured by a 3rd party server provider (Amazon Web Services). Companies like Netflix, Unilever and Reddit use AWS services for their own applications.   

  • What do I need to use Osmos?

    To start using Osmos you'd need an Internet connection, a computer, a tablet, or a mobile phone.

  • Do I need high speed or DSL Internet connection?

    You just need a reliable Internet connection. However, high-speed connection is recommended.

  • Where is Osmos available?

    Anywhere in the world (unless it is restricted by your country).

  • Is my business information safe?

    We secure your connection with the latest Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and all your information is hosted on one of the top server providers that companies like Netflix, Unilever and Reddit trust, Amazon Web Services.

    The SSL used it is the same encryption technology that some of the world’s top banking institutions use in order to secure data sent over the internet.

  • Is Osmos bug and error free?

    Osmos is a complex software with thousands of possible combinations and scenarios. Just think of it, every merchant has different users, and those users use Osmos on different ways. Then add to this that we are continuously adding new AWESOME features that may affect current functionalities.  

     

    So no, Osmos is not bug or error free, but rest assure once a nasty bug is discovered (like the one on the picture) we take care of it right away (Within hours).



    Please report bugs by chatting with us or submitting a ticket. Provide images, videos and description of your problem to better find and correct the bug. Remember, SMILE :) we are here to help you and resolve the error. 


  • Can I manage multiple businesses in Osmos Cloud?

    If you are interested in using Osmos Cloud for more than one business, it is best to create an additional account for your other business(s). When you create an account you personalize it in such a way that it is unique to the business for which you are opening it.

     

    What makes her unique?

    ·       The name of the business.

    ·       Registered mail.

    ·       The logo and information of the company such as address, page and telephone numbers that appear in the quotes and mail.

    ·       Your fiscal information for invoicing.

     

    In Osmos we have business owners and entrepreneurs who manage independent accounts for each of the businesses. In this way they have a better control of the sales of each business and the commercial management.
