Hey community, wondering if anyone can speak to issues with field team members having connectivity issues with Acumatica on a server hosted instance versus cloud based? We currently host on our server, but our team members occasionally have problems in the field when leaving a job and it not registering in Acumatica. Curious, for users who have tried both or just utilized the cloud-based system, do you encounter issues with team members trying to “complete” an appointment and connectivitiy issues prevent from doing so?

Hi ​@mpanella,

You can try increasing the session timeout. Also, enabling request profiler may help you give more information if there is any disconnection with SQL or site. That will give you more information.

Hope this helps!

@mpanella  In my experience, the stability of the network connection at the job site can be a bigger factor than whether Acumatica is hosted on-premises or in the cloud. Cloud hosting still requires a reliable connection to complete and sync appointments.

You could have a look at Jigx Forms, their app has offline capability and the first 3 users are free so you could test it out

I’ve no connection to Jigx, I just like their platform.
