All of your data will remain on Homeschool Planet. Should you choose to purchase a subscription to Homeschool Planet, you can continue right where you were without having to re-enter anything.

Should you choose not to continue, your calendar data will be made available to you as a download in ICS format (suitable for import into another calendar program). However, since other calendar programs do not support the Assignments feature of Homeschool Planet, your assignments will be included in the ICS as part of the plain text descriptions of the events. Reminders will not be included, nor will data entered into any of the Widgets (To-do list, Shopping list, etc.).

The Beta Test will run until we feel that Homeschool Planet is stable enough and useful enough to be valuable to a significant number of homeschoolers. At the moment,we are planning to end the Beta Test and release the product to the public in July.

At the end of the Beta Test you can choose to purchase a subscription and continue access (with your data intact).

Our programmers have brought Homeschool Planet to the point where we think it is ready for our members to use. We’ve invited a limited number of people to try it out, so we can be sure it is truly ready before we open it up to the world.

As a participant in the beta test, we’d like you to use the Homeschool Planet as your primary tool for organizing and scheduling your homeschooling and home life.  The more often you use it, and the more thoroughly you use it, the more helpful it will be to us as we try to make Homeschool Planet as useful as possible to homeschoolers like you.

Just as important as using the software is letting us know what you find.  If you have questions, or if you run into problems, we want to hear from you!  Don’t hesitate to drop us a note for even the smallest question or problem at betatest@homeschool-planner.com – we are very eager to hear from you!
