Question 2

Can TripDeskPro replace TESS for back office?

Yes. TripDeskPro handles commission tracking, payment reconciliation, tax reporting with 1099 generation, QuickBooks/Xero integration, and P&L dashboards — everything TESS does for back office, plus a modern CRM and itinerary builder on top.

Question 3

How is TripDeskPro different from TESS?

TESS is legacy desktop back-office software focused on commission tracking and accounting. TripDeskPro is a modern cloud platform that combines back-office functions with CRM, itinerary building, AI trip planning, a client portal, automation, and more — all in one subscription.
