Why KennelSuite users are moving now

No longer trading

In 2017/2018 the company behind KennelSuite, Plane Software, ceased trading and stopped providing support and updates for the product.

⚠

Stranded on old Windows

Microsoft ended Windows 7 support in January 2020. When you upgrade your operating system, KennelSuite will most likely stop working — and there is no one left to help.

🔒

Your data is locked away

KennelSuite stores your data in a password-protected Microsoft Access database on your computer — and with Plane Software gone, you cannot get the password from them.

We'll unlock your KennelSuite data — free of charge

Send us your database and we will unlock it, then import your customer, pet and vet information into KennelBooker for you.

✓Database unlocked and imported free of charge

Frequently asked questions

Can you import my data from KennelSuite?

Yes - free of charge. Send us your KennelSuite database and we'll unlock the password-protected Access file, import your customer, pet and vet information into KennelBooker, and give you your full data in Excel format for your own records.

Is KennelSuite still supported?

No. Plane Software, the company behind KennelSuite, ceased trading around 2017/2018 and no longer provides support or updates, and the software is unlikely to survive a Windows upgrade.

Is there a free trial of KennelBooker?

Yes. Every KennelBooker plan comes with a free 14-day trial - no credit card required - and there are no contracts, so you can cancel at any time.
