From the previous version Cargo Office uses the SQLite databases for local data storage. In the latest version the data synchronization has changed. Full updates and data maintenance are implemented to increase reliability of the data files. The performance speed in saving data to the local database has increased dramatically that full updates take not more than a couple of minutes. In addition users can switch between local data load or connect directly to the Cargo Office web server.
