We provide a free trial period of 7 days which gives the user an opportunity to explore the system free of cost.
Payments can be done online through credit cards (Master, Visa, Maestro, JCB, Solo) or by giving your bank a standing order. Credit card payments are done through Barclaycard's ePDQ secure payment gateway. If you wish to pay through standing order you can download the standard standing order form which you may fill and submit.
You subscribe to the Cloud based on a FREE annual subscription with a periodic rental fee of £9.99 per seat/per module/per quarter.
You can use the system only in the 'view only' mode - meaning that you can read the information available in your BCM Cloud system but cannot alter or add to it. If over three consecutive months, you elect not to re-activate a module's functionality, you will be sent a reminder to look for re-activation and if this is not done within the next quarter, your subscription will be cancelled. You will then be given a grace period of one month to copy any required data from the system before your account is purged. At any point during this period you may then decide to re-activate and subscribe to a module again.
Yes you can. Note that in this case your new rental period will begin only when the current one is over and you will not lose any of the days from the current rental period.
Yes you can renew it later and enjoy the use of the Basic Planning module in both view and write modes from the day you renew it until the new rental renewal period is valid.
BCM Cloud offers two types of modules - the Basic Planning module and the add-on modules. The Basic Planning module provides you with the What If? Analysis toolkit to complete your business impact analysis and this automatically generates your business continuity plan and a wallet card.
Add-on modules extend the functionality of your basic planning module by providing more features for use for your business continuity programme.
No, at a minimum you need to subscribe to the Basic Planning module before you can subscribe to any of the add-on modules.
The rules are same as for the Basic Planning module as explained in the Subscription/Membership section. You get to use an add-on module in maintenance mode until the rental period for the module is over. If you renew an add-on module while your existing rental period is still valid the new rental period starts only after the completion of the current period.
Yes. In this case while you can use the Basic Planning module in the read-only mode, you can use the add-on module in maintenance mode until its rental period expires. However, you will need to ensure that your annual membership is still valid.
Yes. You can either renew the add-on module or the Basic Planning module or you can renew both in order to use them in the maintenance mode. The module you choose not to renew will be available in the read-only mode. If over three consecutive months, you elect not to re-activate a module's functionality, you will be sent a reminder to look for re-activation and if this is not done within the next quarter, your subscription will be cancelled. You will then be given a grace period of one month to copy any required data from the system before your account is purged. At any point during this period you may then decide to re-activate and subscribe to a module again.
Pricing is based on the size of your organisation and the number of user licenses that you require. There is a discount for registered charitable organisations.
All you need to do is to select the new organisation type which offers you the appropriate higher number of user licenses while renewing your membership.
Yes you can. You will have to pay the full rental fee for the new organisation type and your renewed rental period will start on that day. Note that you will lose the remaining rental days for the current rental period. Therefore, it may be worthwhile to wait for the completion of the current rental period before you go for an upgrade of your organisation type.
