Well chaps, ive just finished my trial period using the George system and am due to sign up.Its going to cost me £50.00 so I believe which is no big deal.
Just wondered, before I sign up, which chaps out there have signed up and use the system successfully. Its a decent system I feel, so im reasonably sold on it for now anyway, just wondered what other think.
Only genuine answers please guys, not sales people trying to sell there version -thanks.
Cheers
Steve

Happy New Year to you all by the way!!!!

It took me ages to convince my dad to try it and now neither of us could to do without george.

It does miss some features.

No iphone support and some features like round order can go wrong.

But easily the best £50 odd quid spent!!!

I used George for 7 years... It's a good bit of software.

However - This time last year I switched over to Aworka (www.aworka.com) - It's all online and a bit more up to date than George. It costs £10 per month.

George

Set it up from 1st November this year

Took a while to get used to from my other data system but  love it, needs a few updates but nothing major,

Love being able to email invoices keeps the cash flow coming in,  in the cloud data storage back up,

Best £50 I've spent

I just write our weeks worth of work on a couple a4 pieces of paper, and scribble them out as we go along, no need for fancy round orginisers.

My 550+ customers are slap bang on my doorstep tho, so can rock up to any house we like when we feel like it

My experience was all good until I upgraded ly laptop to windows 8.1 and could not connect my pda to it.
I emailed George support but they never replied so I have switched to aworka which seems better.

Chris at aworka is very helpful and quick to respond to my questions.

If anyone else reading this is on aworka do you use your mobile phone to update during the day? I am finding it tricky as font is small and my thumbs are too big. I use the full version on-line.

By a second hand tablet or a cheap new one and use the phones hotspot to use Aworka on  that's what I'm planning on doing 

[Steve H]

Thanks for the replies fellas, ive decided to go for it and have set it up - seems a good system for the price, will see how I get on with it, but looks like it will do everything I want it to do at the present time.

thats a good idea although my network is a bit hit and miss in some areas I may have to change.

Which network are you on if you dont mind me asking? I think EE or 3 seem best data coverage.

I'm on O2 and seems ok with 95% areas I work in! If I can't use the main Aworka I just use the mobile version that will work offline.

This is the tablet I'm thinking of getting as the Mrs won't let me take the iPad out to work

Yes the hudl is very good my son has one. I don't think he would want me to take his tablet out either.
Think I might think about getting one myself. Might try the offline version first though.
