View 2 Replies View RelatedApplications :: Creating Relational Database For Small Business
May 14, 2009We run a small travel company, and are trying to create a relational database or something that will help with producing an itinerary for quotes/invoices and manage the bookings (i.e.: paid, confirmed etc). I have the design all mapped out on a lovely piece of paper, and I know exactly what needs to happen. However, I can't get this into computer speak! SQL etc., are beyond me, but am pretty nifty on most Office type applications. Initially the plan was MS Access... but this can't be used on a Mac...
Then I tried Open Office Base, but am finding it very different to Access - not sure if the limitations are within Base or within my knowledge (I am trying to learn). Filemaker may be an option, but it looks as if it may get a bit expensive as we would probably need Advanced (Pro 10 looks a bit basic?) - and hence why I used OOBase.
Software :: Inexpensive Bookkeeping Or Accounting Package To Manage My Business?
Aug 21, 2010I've been trying to find an easy-to-use, inexpensive bookkeeping/accounting package for the Mac to help me manage my business.
Most things I've found have either been too expensive (several hundred pounds) or too difficult for a non-accountant to use.
A few days ago I stumbled upon a Bristol, England firm called InstantAdmin. The software is very straightforward, easy-to-use, and does pretty much what I need it to do.
The only problem: I can't get anyone to answer my emails about a few questions I have and a couple of problems with functionality that I've found.
Does anyone here have any experience of InstantAdmin? I'm hoping this isn't some fly-by-night outfit as I'd really like to buy this software, but not if I can't get a simple reply to an email.

Dec 10, 2009I'm currently working in a small Graphic Design office, where we currently use a G5 as a 'server machine' through file sharing, there is one folder 'work' in which all of our files live. Is there any benefit to getting and installing the OS Server software on this machine? There are 3/4 machines that are all networked together to use the harddrive on what we call our 'server machine'.

Hardware :: External Hard Drive Suggestions For A Small Business?
Apr 9, 2010We've been meaning to buy a new external hard drive to house all of our project work for a while now.
Ideally we would like something that we can plug into our router and access from our homes as well, or at the very least, one which is capable of multiple direct connections.
We've looked at Western Digital options as our typical choice, but I can't seem to see whether the latest mac compatible line-up have those options we want:

View 9 Replies View RelatedApplications :: Software Having Learning Curve For Potential Accounting Employees?
Mar 11, 2009We've been running Clients & Profits for the longest time in our Mac-only office. Frankly it sucks, and we are looking toward something with less of a learning curve for potential accounting employees whose experience mostly seems to center around Quickbooks. Looking at Quickbooks for Mac, it is clearly not the same thing and I don't think it suits our needs. We need something where all users can access the database and add time, create POs and invoices, etc, but at the same time isn't foreign to someone trained in Quickbooks. Does this exist??

View 1 Replies View RelatedApplications :: What Is The Best Business Software For My Company
Mar 16, 2009I own a small lighting rental company that rents mainly to the film industry. I am looking for some software that will assist in making invoices as well as to keep our business more organized in general (accounting, expenses, etc).
My main issue right now is that I spend all day writing up invoices manually. One piece of equipment may contain 20 accessories (all with different rental rates) so I really need a program that has excellent "autofill" functions within it's invoicing. Some of my competitors use "Peachtree" but I don't believe they make one for MAC. I would prefer not to have to run something on Virtual PC.
The other factor is that I have only one other business partner who runs the company with me. Since we often bring in jobs through our two remote workstations (laptops) we need software that we can synch together throughout the day. Basically, we need our two laptops to be in communication so that whatever expenses/invoices/etc my partner enters into his laptop will be reflected on my computer as well.
Applications :: Finding Best Business Software?
Jun 1, 2009I've been doing a lot of research and feel like I'm smoking crack for not being able to find what I want. I recently started a small client-service based business that has assets. What I'd like to do is find one application that does all of the following:
- Allow me to track time by project/client/task, etc. with a built-in timer that also allows bulk input of time
- Turn tracked time into invoices easily
- Track my expenses and mileage
- Track my assets
- Integrate with my bank accounts for reconciliation of payments, transactions, etc.
- Maintain all of the financials of my company (things like depreciation of assets, taxes owed, financial reports, etc.)
- Light customer management
- Export ability to excel, .pdf and email directly from the app
- Possibility of future integration with online credit card payments
Applications :: Looking For Business Meeting Software?

Specifically, right now, I am looking for an application that I can use to take and keep up with Business Meeting Minutes.

Dec 21, 2009Many of the operations I perform related to business, such as setting up different tables, doing different functions, etc., are easily performed on Microsoft Excel for PC. I'm sure all of the other business professionals in this forum can agree that Excel for PC truly is the application of the business world, allowing a vast array of different functions to be performed.
However, I am simply not satisfied with Micrsoft Office for Mac 2008. I know a lot of this has to do with the suite of applications (Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc.) being designed to run on Mac OS X, as opposed to a Windows operating system, but the feel and functionality is completely different.
Therefore, I am considering purchasing iWork when a new version is released.. this will allow me to perform different business operations on my Mac while I don't have access to Excel for PC. I will therefore avoid the frustration of Excel for Mac.
As a businessman or businesswoman, would you recommend iWork? How do you cope with needing to perform different complex business operations when you do not have access to Microsoft Excel for PC?

Applications :: Revive Business Card Printing In Word?
Dec 18, 2010I print my business cards from Word, using my Macbook. I use the Avery Ivory Matte business card stock, and really like the results. I like my design and have been using it for years. Lately, something is up: the cards come out dull. I've done this across several different printers, so I don't think it is the printer. I have a new one now.
I tried using new cards, same deal; comes out faded and dull when it used to be bright and vivid. Could this actually be the Word document itself?

Applications :: What Client Information Management Software Is Best For A Car Business
Jan 28, 2009I handle the administrative / web / marketing for a car tuning business called Evans Tuning (get a better idea here [URL]). Currently, we have the entire office running off of Macs (iMac for the main that is backed up via Time Machine, 1 new MacBook, and 1 New MacBook Pro).
Our setup works well for now, even the tuner here uses a BlackBook to tune cars with. We use Bento for CRM and filing orders and appointments. We use Quickbooks 2007 for Mac for financials. Our calendar is managed via iCal on our website and we even use the subscriptions feature to keep our office staff up to date with the current schedule.
Now on to our current dilemma. Bento is a great program because it is simplistic in the fact that we were able to get the database up and running rather quickly and its easy to expand with whenever new fields are needed to hold more information. Unfortunately, only the main iMac in the office is running Bento and it can only be accessed by that computer. I am looking for a solution that offers the same great ease of use coupled with network-ability (not sure if thats a word), but I want to be able to have multiple users manage the database at one time. This will greatly increase productivity as one user can access for billing information, while another takes an order, or even another sets up a new appointment.
Is there something out there that I have missed? I looked into Filemaker Pro but it seems rather difficult to setup, and isn't very user-friendly looking. It probably also doesn't help that I couldn't find a good tutorial on how to set it up or use it.
