service company database
« on: May 19, 2009, 10:05:51 AM »
Hello all

Does anyone know of a database specificly for fire alarm service companys. I have demoed the Firemaster database but didnt go much on it.

We would like one that prints of certificates as well as keeping track of services due and most impotantly invoices.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers  ::)

Alarm Master does all this, and links upto engineers mobiles etc, and they will also tailor the software to amend anything to suit the individual company.

This is running sucessfully throughout many networked offices throughout the UK

Was my concern a while ago,... and found out that it's better to develop your own database software that suits your specific needs...  :)
