Cheers

Happy New Year Andrew,
I use George and tried the free wcp trail when it was first launched, transfered 3 out of my four weeks and lost interest with it
When Brad joined he emailed me and offered me anther free trail but ha also transfered all my George accounts into wcp as a usable format. I ran the two for a month and there was very little difference between the two, although there were two things that were only on George that was the reason i did not buy it
Brad and Ian have a customer service that seems to be as good as Gardiners but I felt I would be buying it for the sake of it
Hope this helps you a little
Lee

Thanks Lee.
That's a really great objective reply.
I just want to know what, if anything, is offered for the extra money.  It seems nothing so thanks again.

If you are planning to work as a sole trader then George wll probably do all you need and with excellent back up.  On the other hand, if you are already running a sizeable operation or have plans to, then WCP might be more comprehensive for your needs.  WCP also has excellent back up.

I have used George for a number of years and my accountant is very happy with the reports it produces for year end.  Recent upgrades have improved George greatly for my needs.

I have alos used the trial version of WCP and found it to be very professional but I don't see the need to spend out on it with the current size of my business.

Overall, I think you would be happy with either program.

Thanks John.

The only drawback I can see is that George cannot have its mobile version on Windows, only Palm.

Still, the extra cost for the WCP doesn't seem to be justified as I can buy an old Palm machine for less than the difference in price.

Thanks again

Andy

No need to get shirty lol.

I tried using George and inputing customers was a nightmare. I just find WCP alot more user freindly, ie when entering customers it auto complete street names etc where i found with George you had to write out each one indvidually. As mentioned support is great to, ian has spent any hours helping me out. And he would be there for you if needed. Im so much more organised now, i have all my custoemrs details at click of button, all my debts there where i can prit if needed. And one of the best things ive had a touch screen phone with windows mobile on it and it syncs wirelessly, click of a button my round for the day is on it, end of day sync it and click of button all my daily work is done and expenses etc.

All in all i love WCP, i dont know if it offers more than George as i didnt give it the chance i suppose. All im saying is i think its more beterer lol
