Busy on Cloud & Busy on VPS

Run your Busy Accounting Software from anywhere – securely, reliably and with the right performance for your team size. Bison Infosolutions helps you choose and deploy the best option for your business: Busy on Cloud for small to mid-sized teams and Busy on VPS for organisations with more than 10 users or heavy workloads.

Anytime, Anywhere Access Secure & Managed Ideal for Multi-Location Teams
Which option suits you?
  • 1–10 concurrent users – Busy on Cloud (shared or semi-dedicated VM)
  • 10+ concurrent users – Busy on VPS / Dedicated Cloud Server
  • Multi-branch, CAs, large inventory or high reporting load – usually better on VPS

We also help you combine Busy Accounting Software Gold and Busy Accounting Software Server for very high concurrency and speed on VPS.

Busy on Cloud vs Busy on VPS – At a Glance

Busy on Cloud

Your Busy Accounting Software license and data are hosted on a secure cloud server. You log in from anywhere using a lightweight client, browser or Remote Desktop.

Best for: 1–10 users, growing SMEs, CAs, consultants, branches.

  • Shared or semi-dedicated virtual machine (VM)
  • Quick deployment, no hardware purchase
  • Centralised, secure data with daily backups
  • Cost-effective per-user or per-VM plans

Busy on VPS / Dedicated Cloud Server

A dedicated virtual private server (VPS) or cloud instance reserved for your organisation. Ideal when you have many users or need higher control and performance.

Best for: 10+ users, heavy data, many simultaneous logins.

  • Dedicated resources (CPU, RAM, storage) only for your company
  • Optimised for 10+ concurrent users & Busy Accounting Software Server
  • Freedom to run other business apps alongside Tally
  • Greater control on security policies & customisation

How Busy on Cloud Works

Technical Flow (Simple View)
1
Remote Hosting

Your Busy application and company data reside on a secure cloud server in a datacentre – not on your local desktop or office server. The server is optimised for Busy performance, uptime and security.

2
Client Access

You use a client device (laptop, desktop, tablet or mobile) to log in to the hosted Busy environment over the internet, via:

  • Remote Desktop (RDP) client
  • Browser-based access (where supported)
  • Thin clients in branches
3
Virtual Machine (VM)

You get access to a virtual desktop or application window where Busy Accounting Software runs. It feels like working on a local PC, but everything is actually executing on the cloud VM.

4
Printing, Export & Backup

Busy prints to your local/network printers, and you can export reports to Excel/PDF. Daily automated backups are taken from the server side, reducing risk of data loss.

5
Security & Monitoring

Access is protected with username/password, optional dual-factor authentication, firewall rules, role-based rights inside Tally, and server-side antivirus and monitoring.

Key Benefits for Your Business
  • Anytime, Anywhere Access: Work from office, home, factory, warehouse or on the go, as long as you have internet.
  • Device & OS Independence: Use Busy on Windows, macOS, Linux, thin clients or even mobile devices (via RDP).
  • Real-time Collaboration: Multiple users (accounts, stores, management) work on the same data simultaneously, with proper user-level rights.
  • Enhanced Security: Data stays inside the cloud server, not scattered on individual PCs. Encryption, login controls and restricted access reduce risk of leakage or ransomware.
  • Automatic Backups: Daily and scheduled backups, with restore support, protect you against accidental deletion, corruption or hardware failure.
  • Cost-Effective: No need for heavy local servers, UPS, cooling or dedicated IT staff. You pay for the cloud resources you actually use.
  • Scalable: Start with a few users and increase CPU, RAM, storage or user count as your business grows – without re-installing everything.

Busy on VPS – Recommended for 10+ Users

When your organisation has more than 10 concurrent Busy users, or you run complex reports and heavy data volumes, a dedicated VPS (Virtual Private Server) or cloud instance is usually the best option.

In this setup, Bison provisions an isolated server environment for you – with guaranteed CPU, RAM and SSD storage – and configures it specifically for Busy Accounting Software / Busy Accounting Software Server and your other business applications.

Why VPS for 10+ Users?
  • Better performance when many users open vouchers and reports at the same time.
  • Freedom to install Busy Accounting Software Server for improved concurrency & speed.
  • Higher control on OS version, security policies, login rules and maintenance window.
  • Can run other tools (file sharing, MIS, backup agents, 3rd-party connectors) on the same VPS.
Typical Use Cases
  • Manufacturing / trading companies with multiple branches and departments.
  • Enterprises with 10–50+ Busy users logged in together.
  • Organisations needing strict data segregation and compliance.
  • CAs and accounting firms serving many clients centrally.
Sample VPS Configuration (Indicative)
  • 4–8 vCPU high-frequency cores
  • 8–32 GB RAM (depending on users and data)
  • Fast SSD / NVMe storage with RAID / replication
  • Windows Server OS licencing
  • Static public IP, firewall & VPN options
  • Daily + weekly snapshot backups

Exact configuration is finalised after understanding your user count, data size, peak timings, customisations and integration needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

In most cases, no. You can use your existing valid Busy Accounting Software licence (Silver / Gold) on the cloud/VPS. We simply move/activate it on the server. If you are adding users or upgrading to Busy Accounting Software Gold or Busy Accounting Software Server, we will guide you on the best licencing combination.

Busy on Cloud / VPS typically needs very little bandwidth per user because only screen updates and keystrokes travel over the network. A stable broadband / leased line connection with at least 5–10 Mbps and low latency is recommended. For 10+ users, a higher capacity and reliable connection (with backup link, if possible) is ideal.

We configure your cloud/VPS so that local and network printers are available inside the Busy session. You can print invoices, reports and documents normally. Export to Excel/PDF can be done to the cloud drive (and then downloaded) or directly to mapped local drives, based on the chosen setup and security policy.

Your Busy data will be stored on the configured cloud/VPS server for your account. You remain the owner of your data at all times. We help you with backups, access policies and health monitoring, but we do not use or share your financial data with anyone.

We work with reliable datacentre partners that provide strong uptime SLAs and power/network redundancy. In addition, your setup is protected by scheduled backups, so in case of a major failure we can restore your data. At your office end, we recommend a backup internet connection for critical operations (especially when many users work remotely).

Pricing depends on:
  • Number of users and expected concurrency
  • Required server configuration (CPU, RAM, storage)
  • Choice of Cloud vs VPS, backup policy and security options
  • Whether Busy Accounting Software Server or additional software is needed
