Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about migrating from legacy spreadsheets or monolithic ERPs to C36Space.

Traditional ERP systems are heavy, rigid suites requiring 6-12 months of custom consulting and fragile bespoke code. C36Space offers a modular connected workspace—you activate only the apps you need (like Invoicing, CRM, or Inventory) and they automatically share the same real-time data foundation without expensive implementation cycles.

Yes. C36Space comes with guided CSV and Excel import templates for customer ledgers, charts of accounts, vendor lists, and product catalogs. You can import opening balances seamlessly or connect automated sync scripts through our secure APIs.

All customer data is encrypted both in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Each business tenant runs in isolated database containers with automated daily point-in-time snapshots and redundancy across multiple availability zones.

We provide a fully-featured 14-day free trial containing all ERP modules—no credit card required. Once the trial ends, you can choose a subscription model aligned with your team size and module scope. Feel free to reach out to our support channel for custom enterprise pricing options.
