I use george have both commercial and domestics on it and very happy with how george works.

I would not change as im happy with what i have.
Maybe WCP has more stuff i don't know but myself i would never pay there price for a piece of software.

I have better things to spend that sort of money on.

As many as your screen allows and if they all don't fit you can scroll down.

George is so easy to use i did try a previous version of WCP and that was not as good a george.
The new version i have not tried.

And when a job is done just mark as done and george reschedules it for the next clean.

If i were you i would download both versions and try them both out.

Seems easy enough for me, I just double click the customer and the account comes up, tick the "paid" box and "save" how easy is that.

George for me.....does all I need and just £50

I downloaded the trial of both George and WCpro,.... despite being the more costly alternative, I went for WCpro and I'm extremely happy I did. Its a fantastic tool, very easy to use, and runs on windows mobile as opposed to Palm.
If you have George already and it does what you need it to, then why change,... but if you're starting out from scratch, I'd recommend WCpro all the way.

yes why wouldnt it?

i have just got a new phone that runs windows mobile 6 and i tell you what its fantastic just carrying round my phone and not reels and reels of paper that gets scrappy

all i have on me now is my phone, ive set out the round order, got to the job, do it, click "maintain" "done" if theyve paid or not "save and next" onto next house

fantastic

hi matt, is it possible for me to give you a ring at a convenient time to ask you a few things about the software. something r just easier over the phone if you know what i mean

I down loaded George & deleted it after 2 or 3 days. I'm a numpty when it comes to computers & could not get on with it, didn't like the look of it.

Along comes WCP so i had a look at it & got on with it. I managed to get Ian to let me test this version & i will never be without it.

One of the most important tools for me, less than a days wage & got it for life, cant go wrong.

hi
I've tried WCP and it is very shiney, with lots of pretty colours and it does the job well
but at the end of the day it's £200
George does the job well and is £50.
WCP is sleek, but it's £150 extra worth odd sleek.

in my opinion yes it is worth the extra, i gave george a try, and got rid after about a day, i got wcp and wouldnt be without it!

and i once asked george a question and got a reply "look at the FAQ's on the site" that finished it for me

i ask ian a question and hes there done it helped you. even takes over your computer to show ya what to do, does updates we've asked for, blooming fantastic!

I have to agree when it comes to helping you or a idea that will help Ian will be on the Ball straight away.I also tried Goerge but went with WCP and got a pda which is very easy to use.Click on the house tick job done and save.It gives you the option pay or not paid and cash or check before you save it.
