Still the best for inventory
Backups are your problem in a way they are not with cloud products, and extra users cost more and it adds up fast. Stock control is the reason we stay, nothing cloud based matches it, which is about the only positive.
Pros
Stock control is the reason we stay, nothing cloud based matches it.
Cons
Backups are your problem in a way they are not with cloud products.

Worth it for project costing
The document capture pre fills purchase invoices and saves hours a week, and multi company reporting means I am not consolidating in a spreadsheet. The price is hard to justify unless you actually use the depth, but we live with it.
Pros

Cons

Stock control keeps us here
Foreign currency handling is properly built in on Professional. Our accountant has used it for twenty years so support is easy.
Pros
Foreign currency handling is properly built in on Professional.
Cons
It is desktop software with cloud bolted on and remote working shows it.

Overkill unless you need the modules
Our accountant has used it for twenty years so support is easy. Project costing gives us real margin per job rather than a guess.
Pros

Cons
Extra users cost more and it adds up fast.

Expensive, and we still renew
The fixed asset register saves the schedule we used to keep separately. That said, CIS costs extra on top of an already high subscription and the price is hard to justify unless you actually use the depth.
Pros
The fixed asset register saves the schedule we used to keep separately.
Cons
CIS costs extra on top of an already high subscription.
