Key new features Truecafe Cybercafe Management Software




Bandwidth management


You can now limit Internet bandwidth usage for every customer terminal. Depending on a pricing package, a bandwidth limit can be 64, 96, 128, etc. kbps or unlimited.


Valve Steam support


TrueCafe now supports Steam game delivery system (by Valve Corporation). Register your Steam accounts (login/password) in the TrueCafe CD-key management system and create shortcuts to your games on the TrueCafe Client program panel.
When a customer double clicks on a game shortcut, the CD-key management system takes an available Steam account from the stock and use it to start and login Steam.


Wi-Fi white list


Specify wireless billing exceptions: website names or terminal IP/MAC addresses. You can add your employees' laptops addresses here so that they have free access to the Internet. It makes sense to specify your network printers IP addresses as well so that wireless billing doesn't stop printing.
Close programs delay

When a customer session is stopped you can now close running programs with some delay. Meanwhile the customer can add the extra time to his session and continue working with his programs.
Wi-Fi/Desktop tickets


Create tickets which your customer can only use on either Wi-Fi terminals or desktop PC. This is useful when you provide different charge rates for Wi-Fi and dekstop sessions.


Top-up and ticket receipts


Print a receipt when you top-up a customer account, sell a ticket or extend a session.
