What kind of software do you all use to keep record of your customers and if they pay in time etc. etc.

A url is preffered with each program Thanx.

For good recordkeeping, I would recommend Quickbooks Pro.
And if you don;t have a merchant account, you can get one with them that works with Quickbooks Pro to credit any invoices that the customer pays via CC.

The new version is nice in that it can email out invoices, and you can have the customer pay online as well.

Michael,

Do you have the newer version of Quickbooks ... 2001. I am thinking about upgrading and was wondering if you thought it was worth it. I would love to see an example of an email invoice if you could throw one my way.

[MSW]

Paul:

I do have it (upgraded from 2000) and will send you a sample invoice as soon as my office manager gets in. It will probably be tomorrow, though. She has a sick child today. I wish I knew how to access the darn thing. You would think that I should . Actually, I do, but I don't want to screw up what she has done so far!

We use a piece of software we wrote inhouse.
It's available for free and can run on any server that has MySQL and PHP.

It's called CBMS.

Check out http://www.voxel.net

Click on software and then click on CBMS.

Cheers,

Where can i find Quickbooks Pro or other related software? How much it cost?

[akashik]

http://www.quickbooks.com/

It sounds to me like you may be looking for something online regarding software. Quickbooks is a desktop piece of software, with the Pro version having *some* online functionality... Just in case you wondering when you check out their site

Oh by the way (in general)....

If you are ever tempted to use the Site Solutions package at Intuit (makers of Quickbooks), don't... I spent a great deal of time once getting a domain out of their clutches for a customer after the trial period was over...

Whoops. Can't delete the post so I will edit to correct.

At first, I didn't find the word "software" at http://www.voxel.net/ -- and then I did. Life's like that.

Any other programmes that can do the trick or are these really the only ones or best?

[Domenico]

Hey NopZor,

It would be great if there would be a separate adduser file the new users could fill in themselves so it saves you time to do it yourself offcourse.
Many great things could be added and my question is if you are still working on it and if yes what new things are to come?
Maybe you want more suggestions for new implementations...

I installed it and I like it allready ;-) Any dutch people here willing to translate it?

Thank you,
Domenico

[ksstudio]

can i find any installation manual of the CBMS besides the readme file?

[nopzor]

we are working (and about to release) a completely revamped version (*complete with documentation*). i won't bother advertising here, but let me know via email if you want to be kept up to date with when it comes out.

cheers,

YES!!!!!!

I don't understand more companies step into this sector and make Webhosting User Management software.

Many, many people are looking for these kind of programmes but no software company seems to notice it or care about it :-(

If someone could make a complete program with all kinds off functions and many variables so everyone could tailor the software to his situation this would be a massive hit.

Programmers think about this!
