I'm a sole trader and I find spreadsheets and a database just fine to work with. If my business was larger and more complex, I would consider other options.
I have been giving consideration to 'Roundtracker'. Anyone else use it?
hi paul ill guarantee cleaner planner would save you time compared to spreadsheets.its so smooth and slick and virtually effortless.the mobile app is just great too.adding expenses and new jobs when out and about as well as updating jobs/debts etc.emailing invoices/statement of accounts to customers is also very easy.being able to add your logo and little typed notes to invoices makes them look so much more professional too.
the development is ongoing with CP.great support.they also have a forum.price increase letters coming soon that you can print out,you can even print slips/chits for day to day jobs if you want(all with your logo on).the "shift schedule" button is a really nifty feature too when going on holiday moving all your work forward 7 days(or whatever)
if your PC ever crashes you can just log on from any computer/ipad/tablet with a few clicks.all work is backed up to 3 different servers hourly so no worries about losing data.the list just goes on and on.
for £15 a month i think its defo worth it for me.
