Advice on office software

[Marshallheating]

Hi can anyone give me advice on office software. I have been running my heating company on my own for four years. I have been doing. My paper work by hand but I am at the stage where I want to be more efficient. I have no idea what software I need for accounting & invoicing etc if anyone can tell me what they are using it would help me out thanks.

I am in the same position as you now. Need a decent software package to back me up.

I only use excel. Basic, but does the job

 

[Harvest Fields]

That's what I have at the moment. But would like something decent that I can do everything on including quotes and invoices with the capability to email it all off from one place without having to bounce around screens.

Aye it is a bit of a chore, so i'll keep watching this one

I have found a few things like tradify
Where you pay monthly and you get everything in one place I am thinking about trying them out

Speak to your accountant. Probably worth getting something that links with their software. You can try the likes of Sage and whatnot to see what that can do for you.

If you want jobs being booked in using it too there are loads of things like this.

TradeHero on the App Store

It's free with some add-on's you pay for. Have a go of things like that.
