Someone who has a small auto workshop asked me to try and find a New Zealand-based software package at a reasonable price to run their workshop.
It's your average workshop - customers are a mix of company and private, some with multiple vehicles.

They want the ability to do invoicing, statements, reports.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Pricing is reasonable, with a no-GST version for free.

295601 2004-11-24 09:26:00 I've tried them all, Sam is the easiest to use & the one I use. Synergy has everything buried in menus.
Cashbook software is useless, you need dedicated software & you pay through the nose for it. There are freebies on the internet but not worth the bother for serious everyday trouble free use.

As a sam owner user, how do you consider the price "Through the nose" considering what you get for it.

It Isn't cheap, but as a bench mark with constant upgrades in that market.

I wouldnt call it expensive.
