It's great in some ways and a pain in others. The issues lie in the nature of our work though, not in the software.

Overall, I'd still recommend it, especially for multi-vehicle operations.

Using Aworka at the mo,  Does everything I need as a franchisor at a cheaper price,

The more vans you have, The bigger the price difference, unless cleaner planner prices have dropped, I haven't checked cleaner planner prices for a while

Just had a look at the website,

As a franchisor, Would it be  £25 per month, per franchisee?

Rob I believe does a bit cheaper. Don't quote me on that EEK. But I am sure I read it somewhere.

Have been using it for a couple of weeks now. Still undecided whether I'll keep using it long term yet. 

I just want a very simple planner with jobs due > jobs done > jobs owed, for my domestic work anyway.  Having to sync with my laptop I'm finding a PITA as I only really want to use my laptop to do my monthly commercial invoices.

Still undecided.

George suits me.  Like the fact that it's a one off payment and then you own it outright. Don't fancy renting cleaner planner no matter how good it's suppose to be unless they plan on selling it as a one off payment. I'm old fashioned and like to own things like phones so you can shop around for the best tariffs,........hate the idea of being tied to something with never actually owning it.

The only thing i would change on George is the ability to use it on any device, apart from that i find it more than adequate.

I use Aworka - It does everything that I need it to do in a simple way.

I've tried CP a couple of times and everything just seems to take 2 clicks more to do something.

That's what I found.

Aworka has two drawbacks though in my opinion. Moving jobs between rounds is a pain (Chris is working on being able to control all rounds on the plkanner which will be brilliant) and the inability to send texts easily to a group of debtors for example.
