The document capture pre fills purchase invoices and saves hours a week, and stock control is the reason we stay, nothing cloud based matches it. CIS costs extra on top of an already high subscription, but we live with it.

Expensive, and we still renew
Mixed. The fixed asset register saves the schedule we used to keep separately, but CIS costs extra on top of an already high subscription.

Powerful but you pay for it
Foreign currency handling is properly built in on Professional. Only real gripe is that extra users cost more and it adds up fast.

Worth it for project costing
Our accountant has used it for twenty years so support is easy, and the document capture pre fills purchase invoices and saves hours a week. Backups are your problem in a way they are not with cloud products, but we live with it.

Does the job, feels its age
Stock control is the reason we stay, nothing cloud based matches it. Only real gripe is that upgrades occasionally break a custom report.

The document capture pre fills purchase invoices and saves hours a week, and project costing gives us real margin per job rather than a guess. No complaints so far.

Still the best for inventory
Foreign currency handling is properly built in on Professional, and multi company reporting means I am not consolidating in a spreadsheet. No complaints so far.
Pros
Foreign currency handling is properly built in on Professional.
Cons
It is desktop software with cloud bolted on and remote working shows it.

Stock control keeps us here
The price is hard to justify unless you actually use the depth, and the interface is dated compared with anything browser based. The document capture pre fills purchase invoices and saves hours a week, which is about the only positive.
Pros
The document capture pre fills purchase invoices and saves hours a week.
Cons
The price is hard to justify unless you actually use the depth.

Overkill unless you need the modules
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.
