Anybody using Job Management Software?
I totally agree with everything you've said UNG and I've taken it all on board. Looking at the simPRO package, as much as it may be a wonderful product which will save me a ton of time and effort in the office, I just cannot justify the asking price! A thousand pound juts to be trained and then...- M-B-Electrical-Services

Anybody using Job Management Software?
Hi guys, Just thought I would update those who are interested. Had a chat with a lad called Joe at simPRO on Friday about their software and he took me through a demo which was quite interesting. It seems to tick every box really and will integrate with everything I currently use and more. The...- M-B-Electrical-Services

During my research, I came across this government scheme which may help some of you guys: https://www.learn-to-grow-your-business.service.gov.uk/comparison-tool I am not eligible as I am not a registered business (Ltd) but some of you guys might benefit from the large savings if you're not...- M-B-Electrical-Services

Cheers Alan. I will look into this and see if I can make this work. It's all about being efficient with your time I suppose and anything that may help me manage my time a bit better will help. I appreciate your input! :)- M-B-Electrical-Services

Anybody using Job Management Software?
You make an extremely valid point UNG. It's an important aspect that I failed to consider. I have heard horror stories of organisations that have decided to emigrate from a particular software package only to find that access to their customer base is denied. I would have to ensure a manual...- M-B-Electrical-Services

I have asked the question mate. See what they say. I've also asked about being tied into a contract etc etc.- M-B-Electrical-Services

There is the obvious thing of writing this cost off to the tax man which will lessen the tax I pay so I guess I could justify it in that regard...............................- M-B-Electrical-Services

Anybody using Job Management Software?
Just had an email back from simPRO. Their pricing is as follows: Enterprise Monthly Office LIcence @ £96/user per month (equates to £22 per week) Mobile Licence @ £14/user per month Annual Subscription Office Licence @ £87/user per month (Equates to £20 per week) Mobile Licence @...- M-B-Electrical-Services

Anybody using Job Management Software?
Hi Alan, That's really helpful information bud. I haven't heard of the software you're using so I will do some research on this to see if I can introduce it into my work-flow. Your method looks really interesting though so I'm intrigued. :) Are you a Sole Trader or Ltd with employee's? You...- M-B-Electrical-Services

Anybody using Job Management Software?
I might have to look into this a little more as this little rabbit hole is getting deeper and deeper the more I look. It seems to me that the majority of these software packages are hampered in some way or another. My accountant uses QuickBooks so it would make sense to use software that will...- M-B-Electrical-Services

Anybody using Job Management Software?
Frustrated with Fergus as it's quotation section is just too limited. I'll not bother trying with that anymore. The only good thing Fergus does which none of the others can do is that it integrates with my existing email address. JobLogic is really good but again, there is no option to...- M-B-Electrical-Services

Anybody using Job Management Software?
YourTradeBase was initially very refreshing as it was very simple to use and quite intuitive BUT it's the "simple" part of this sentence that describes the product. I have an info@ email address which is customised to my business but YTB won't integrate in into their software so I'm forced to...- M-B-Electrical-Services

Anybody using Job Management Software?
Very true. The time it is taking me to input all the various values in each category is excessive but it's hard to know which one to actually spend time doing the data input to. I understand that the software is an investment though and I do need to pick the correct one based on the criteria...- M-B-Electrical-Services

Anybody using Job Management Software?
As it happens, I'm on a 14 day trial with these guys at the moment. Still getting to grips with it. The only thing I've found I don't like up now about that is I can't seem to change/alter the layout of the quotation/estimate form. It's not as intuitive as YourTradeBase I'm also trying...- M-B-Electrical-Services

Anybody using Job Management Software?
You're right of course. I will be having a conversation with a SimPro rep on Monday about their software but my main concern is pricing really. It has to be justified vs the time I currently spend (which is hours) manually filling out paperwork. If SimPro is too expensive, I'll opt for one of...- M-B-Electrical-Services

Its iPad only though that's the problem. The more I look, the more I see that each one does one thing well but misses the target on the rest. This isn't going to be easy......- M-B-Electrical-Services

Anybody using Job Management Software?
Hi baldelectrician, Ah, so you're findings tally with mine then, that's really helpful to know. I won't go down the Tradify route again then! (was going to give it another go). You're right about the contacts thing, when you really drill down into the detail of each app, you start to realise...- M-B-Electrical-Services

Anybody using Job Management Software?
Hi, That's the problem though as all the high profile Influencer electrical channels like Bundy, Artisan et al all tout how good it is but they're sponsored so I tend to not trust that. I much prefer an independent review of which there are none out there! 😤- M-B-Electrical-Services
