Security and continuity

The shop keeps running, and the data stays accountable.

Faida is designed around a local-first desktop, signed downloads, staff accountability, cloud sync, and backup paths for replacement devices.

Public downloads redirect from the current release manifest to signed Windows and macOS builds.

The app saves work locally first so counters can continue through network interruptions.

Cloud customers sync queued changes after connectivity returns, keeping devices in step.

Local backups are supported on every plan, while Cloud seats add automatic cloud backup and restore.

Owner, admin, and staff access keeps daily work scoped to the right responsibilities.

Operational changes can be reviewed with who, what, and when context.

Data model

Local when the shop needs speed, cloud when the business needs visibility.

Faida keeps the desktop usable first. Cloud features add reporting, backup, and restore without making the counter depend on a perfect connection.

Sales, inventory, products, customers, suppliers, and payments are available in the app while offline.

Cloud seats add synchronized reporting, devices, backups, billing, and restore workflows.

Operational records are kept exportable for bookkeeping, review, and migration planning.

What happens if the internet goes down?

The desktop app keeps working from local data. Cloud sync catches up when the connection returns.

What happens if a computer fails?

Local backups help every plan. Cloud customers also have cloud backup and restore support for replacement devices.

Can staff have different permissions?

Yes. Faida supports role-based access so owners, admins, and staff can work with appropriate permissions.

Where do downloads come from?

The download page and API use the current desktop release manifest, then redirect to hosted platform installers.

Deploy

Use the desktop locally, then add Cloud when your shop needs synced reports, backups, and restore.
