Technical

Crescat is a web-based platform, so you don’t need state-of-the-art hardware, just a reliable internet connection and a modern web browser. We recommend Google Chrome, Firefox and Safari.

Yes. You can download the Crescat companion app for iOS and Android. We also have a desktop app available for Windows, Mac and Linux here.

Thankfully Crescat lets you take information offline with the report center found in the settings. Crescat’s collaborative nature means an internet connection is required to make changes.

We offer a range of support options, including:

  • A comprehensive knowledge base with helpful articles and tutorials
  • Email support for specific questions and troubleshooting.
  • Live chat support during business hours based on your plan.

A lot of our daily planning and development of enhancements is driven by user feedback. Updates happen almost every morning in the web app, ensuring you can focus on your priorities while Crescat silently improves. No one's ever stuck with an outdated version of the Crescat platform.

Crescat uses state-of-the-art, end-to-end encryption which prevents unauthorized access by third parties during transit. We also keep backup copies of user data in a separate location. If you’re not exactly sure what that means, it means yes!

Setup and onboarding is always available for a one-time fee, starting from €599. During setup and onboarding we help you setup your organization’s templates and workflows. Onboarding discounts are available via some of our partner industry organizations including NKA, Dansk Live and AIF.

Depending on the size of your organization, onboarding can take as little as 1 hour!

Crescat is intuitive and easy to use, however we recommend booking an onboarding session to ensure you get the maximum value out of our software. If you would rather handle your own setup, we recommend referring to our comprehensive knowledge base and training videos, available here.
