Is there its. What is ITS and why is it needed? ITS has other very useful and pleasant features

22.12.2014 Is a subscription to 1C:ITS mandatory for all companies?

As you know, 1C: ITS, especially some types of this service, seems to many companies to be unnecessarily expensive. That is why the question quite often arises: is it necessary to subscribe to ITS? Is it possible to do without an accompaniment? The answer is clear: subscription is not required. So, if you want to buy 1C in Moscow , no one will force you to buy a subscription to ITS. However, there are some aspects worth knowing.

Firstly, only those users who have basic versions of the programs can update their software products to new releases without subscribing to ITS. Basic versions are updated free of charge via the Internet.

Users who use versions of programs higher than the basic ones can update them only if they have an ITS - a valid subscription to information technology support. Why is it not recommended to refuse to update programs altogether? Each new program update contains a number of improvements. This could be improvements in functionality, security system, program performance, fixing any errors or security holes. It is recommended to install each update immediately after its release, without waiting for a situation when your program starts producing one error after another.

Secondly, ITS is not a useless service, as many company managers believe, wanting to save at least something. Why shouldn't you save on ITS?

Because access to ITS will give your company a lot, namely:

  • ITS 1C subscription is a regular, legal update of programs obtained from official sources;
  • 1C: Lecture hall, thanks to which your company’s specialists will be able to learn about innovations and accounting rules from the best 1C specialists and invited experts. Here you can ask questions on the topic. This tool is simply necessary if you want your employees to regularly improve their professional level;
  • The ability to send reports to the Pension Fund of Russia, the Social Insurance Fund and the Federal Tax Service directly through 1C: Reporting - secure communication channels. For PROF level ITS subscribers, this service is provided free of charge;
  • The ability to study teaching materials in the Internet version of the ITS, which is very convenient for most users;
  • The 1C: Taxcom service will allow you to establish electronic exchange of documents with counterparties. In the ITS PROF version, this service is also free;
  • Questions for auditors. From time to time, every accountant has such a need. With ITS you will not have a problem where to find a knowledgeable specialist. In addition, consultation can be obtained on a special “1C” line;
  • Technical support and additional services from 1C partners. A full list of services that come with an ITS subscription can be found from the franchisee company with which you cooperate.

So, ITS is certainly a useful service. But how much your company needs it is up to you to decide. The main thing is that the programs work well, and that employees have the opportunity to keep them up to date and in working order, receiving both updates and useful information about certain innovations on time.

Currently, more and more organizations are working on licensed software products from 1C. This has huge advantages, including high-quality support, good documentation, the ability to regularly update the program, etc.

Maintaining the relevance of licensed programs from 1C requires a mandatory agreement for Information Technology Support (ITS). But many clients treat this too formally and the real advantages of ITS are less obvious to them. We will try to explain in a little more detail why ITS is needed and how to use it to the maximum.

ITS - Information and technological support "1C:Enterprise" is the comprehensive support that 1C and partners provide to users of 1C:Enterprise programs.

The 1C:ITS information system is intended for managers, personnel officers, economists, accountants, accountants and IT specialists.

1C:ITS includes:

  • professional information system for users of 1C programs on the Internet www.its.1c.ru and on DVD;
  • 24/7 access to current software releases;
  • useful services for convenient work in the program, such as “1C: Counterparty”, “1C: Reporting”, “1C: EDO”, etc.
  • consulting services of the company "1C";
  • consulting services for 1C partners;
The exact composition of the support depends on the chosen tariff option:

ITS subscription validity period

An ITS agreement can be concluded for a certain period according to the following options:

1 month3 months6 months12 months24 months
ITS PROF
ITS Techno - -

“8+4” scheme for preferential ITS PROF

For users who have a coupon for a preferential ITS PROF for 3 months (issued when purchasing new programs, with the exception of educational and basic versions), the “8+4” contract scheme is available. This scheme implies that the user can receive instead of 3 months of free support = 4 months by concluding an ITS PROF agreement for 12 months.

Thus, the company can use the services of ITS PROF for 12 months, while paying only for 8 months.

Why ITS?

It often happens that in his work an accountant performs the same operations with different frequencies. But life does not stand still. An accountant may change his place of work, the company in which he works is starting a new activity, or it is necessary to reflect in the 1C program an operation that an accountant performs extremely rarely. In addition, legislation changes and, as a result, software products also change.

Of course, he can turn to colleagues, trusted Internet sites and magazines for help. And here various BUTs arise:

  • There are a huge number of sites on the Internet, and it can take a lot of time until you find the right source that is trustworthy.
  • Even if you have trusted sites that you trust, then most likely it will not say how to perform this or that operation in the 1C program, but only general recommendations.
  • You can turn to friends and colleagues, but this is not always convenient. In addition, it is unlikely that a friend will be able to explain in detail over the phone, step by step, how to reflect this or that situation in the 1C program, or it will take a lot of time. But several questions may arise.
  • You can call a programmer you know or a 1C partner who services 1C software products. But there is one very important point here. 1C partners do not have the right to work with clients who do not have a valid ITS agreement, which means you can hardly count on help.

And is it worth torturing yourself if you have a reliable and proven assistant right at your fingertips, especially since when you purchase the program, the first 3 months of service are provided free of charge.

It is during this period that it is advisable to learn all the advantages of 1C: ITS, in order to calmly pay for support in the future, making maximum use of the capabilities of both the ITS disk itself, the site www.its.1c.ru, and the services provided by 1C and partners “ 1C" under the ITS agreement.

One of the interesting functions of ITS PROF is that you can call our company’s consultation line. However, it often happens that even if there is a qualified specialist on the other side of the phone who knows how to help you, it can take a lot of time to explain the step-by-step algorithm of actions, and it is usually not as clear as seeing the pictures before your eyes.

In situations where 1C users ask how to reflect this or that operation in the program correctly, the consultation line employees explain how to find a detailed answer (the necessary material) on the disk/website www.its.1c.ru. At the same time, it will be described in great detail how to solve this or that issue. The user, using detailed instructions and screenshots from the program, can independently or with the help of 1C specialists figure out the solution to the problem.

ITS has other very useful and pleasant features:

  • ITS-Prof users can ask questions to the 1C consultation line and auditors.
  • On-line access to the Internet version of the ITS on the site its.1c.ru will make working with the information system more accessible. After all, in large organizations there are many employees, but there is only one subscription per organization, which makes working with one disk inconvenient. Moreover, such access will allow you to use all materials on the website its.1c.ru both at work and at home.
  • You can improve your knowledge, get acquainted with the materials of economic publications and store many issues of magazines on one single disk.
  • For employees who keep records in several small companies and work in standard 1C programs, for example, "1C: Accounting 8", it is possible to independently update their programs by downloading new releases on another 1C website - users.v8.1c.ru, without waiting for the 1C service engineer to arrive.
  • Available ITS services that allow you to optimize work processes: assessing the risks of working with counterparties, sending 1C Reporting, connecting EDF, automatically filling in counterparties, remote work with programs, etc.
  • Free attendance at lectures from 1C experts, which discuss issues of legislative innovations and their reflection in 1C programs, as well as the most pressing issues that arise for accountants and HR specialists.
