Frequently asked
What providers usually ask, before and after the demo.
We answer honestly, even when the answer cuts against us. If you're missing a question, write to us — we'll add it.
Question, keyword, or topic — e.g. "Contract", "GDPR", "API".
How you start with Aldor — and how you leave.
6-
How long is the contract?
You pick monthly or yearly. Monthly cancels at the end of the month, yearly at the end of the term. No two-year minimum, no automatic one-year renewal, no hidden clauses.
-
What happens to my data when I cancel?
You get a complete export of all data as CSV plus a PDF archive of signed documents. We delete your data 30 days after contract end, unless you say otherwise. You can return without data loss until then.
-
Are prices net or gross?
All prices on the website are net, plus 19 % statutory VAT. Billing is based on active clients, not on the number of helpers. Example — Standard with 80 active clients (yearly) = €65 net / month = €77.35 gross / month.
-
Is onboarding charged extra?
No — a clear no. There's no setup fee, no implementation charge, no hidden onboarding cost — unlike many other vendors. Guided setup (master data, first helper invitation, first tour) is included in every tier; Pro adds an on-site session. You pay only the monthly plan price.
-
Is there a free trial?
Yes. 30 days with full functionality. You set Aldor up with your real clients and tours and decide afterwards. Billing only starts after the trial ends, and you can cancel any time — including during the trial.
-
Do I pay per employee or per user?
No. Aldor bills by active clients, not by headcount — helpers, dispatchers, and office staff carry no per-user surcharge (Klein up to 5 helpers, Standard and Pro unlimited). You pay only for the clients you actually serve.
Your data is yours.
1-
Can I export data without cancelling?
Any time. Clients, helpers, tours, visit records, invoices — as CSV, as PDF, as JSON via the API. Your data is yours, not ours.
Where your data lives, who has access.
3-
Where is my data stored?
Hetzner Online GmbH, data centres in Nuremberg and Falkenstein. Both ISO-27001 certified. Data-processing agreement ready to sign, EU sub-processors named. Backups never leave Germany.
-
What is encrypted?
Client names, addresses, phone numbers, Pflegegrade, notes, signatures. Before they hit disk, with AES-256, per column. Even someone with a database backup would only see ciphertext.
-
Can I control who on the team sees which data?
Yes. Aldor works with roles: a helper sees only the clients and tours assigned to them, a dispatcher sees the schedule, the owner sees everything including billing and reports. Each role gets exactly the view it needs for the job — no more. Shared logins aren't needed and aren't allowed.
API, browsers, devices.
7-
Which browsers are supported?
Aldor runs in any modern browser — Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Edge. We test against the last two major versions. Internet Explorer is not supported.
-
Do I need to install a phone app?
No. Aldor runs in the phone browser, full functionality including offline storage. You can pin the icon to the home screen — looks like an app, is a website, no app-store approval required.
-
Does Aldor connect to my tax advisor?
Yes. Aldor exports payroll and bookkeeping in the DATEV format your tax advisor already uses. A Lexware export is available too. If your tax advisor wants their own connection, Aldor has a documented interface they can plug into.
-
Does Aldor work offline, e.g. on the road without coverage?
Yes, on the helper side. Tours, client data, services, and notes are loaded onto the device when the helper opens the app in the morning — after that everything keeps working without a network. Whatever gets entered on the road syncs automatically once coverage is back. In the office you need a connection; billing, Pflegekassen lists, and payroll export run server-side.
-
What if Aldor goes down? Is there an SLA?
Yes. Klein and Standard get 99.5 % uptime (about 3.5 hours of unplanned downtime per month max), Pro gets 99.9 % (~45 min). If we miss it, we credit the pro-rated monthly fee automatically — you don't have to claim it. Maintenance windows are Sundays 03:00–05:00 and don't count as downtime. Status page at status.aldor.ai.
-
Does Aldor use AI? What is Lotte?
Lotte is the assistant inside Aldor. It suggests — a reassignment when someone's sick, a message to relatives, an anomaly on a tour — but it never decides on its own. Every suggestion shows what it's based on and can be dismissed with one click. Nothing changes automatically; you always keep your hand on the wheel.
-
Can I use Aldor across multiple locations?
Yes, on the Pro plan. You run multiple sites with separate bookkeeping under one roof. On Klein and Standard you work with a single location; you can move up to a larger plan at any time.
Nothing found.
No question matches "". Maybe we haven't added it yet — write to us and we will.
Rather a real conversation?
30 minutes on the phone. Directly with a founder.
Some questions are better answered in conversation — we'll take the time. You'll talk to one of the three founders, not to sales. Even if you don't buy in the end.
