Alistair McDonald - Director
 Certatech Pty Ltd
     
    I wanted to thank the Shoebooks team for your efforts over the past six years or so.

As you know, we have had a number of businesses rise and fall over that period, while Shoebooks has quietly and sensibly continued on growing.

Every time we start a new business, Shoebooks is the default option - we don't bother wasting time reviewing the competition as we know that Shoebooks caters to all of our default needs.

Having said that, we have reviewed alternatives to Shoebooks when requiring specialist services such as timesheet or payroll management.

On a direct comparison of features, we have not found anything else that fulfils our requirements as well as Shoebooks. We also know that we have direct contact with the owners and developers of the system, so new options or tweaks to existing ones are always possible. I doubt that ANY of your genuine competitors would offer this possibility at all.

To cap it all off, the pricing model that you have adopted makes Shoebooks top value for money. You have never had us on 'lock-in' contracts and this is also greatly appreciated.

Finally, with my background in mission critical IT systems, I know that you take system availability and reliability, as well as data security very seriously. There has always been absolute confidence that our financial data will always be protected and accessible. I can honestly say that the uptime of Shoebooks is better than some of Australia's banks in my experience!

Thanks again and keep up the great work!

Shoebooks, a project spear headed by two of the most talented people I know, is sure to fulfil your accounting needs. As a business consultant and coach, who focuses on the upper echelon of the market, this piece of software is one of my trump cards.

Most accounting software is written to appease the desires of the masses, is bulky, inflexible, locally hosted and un-scalable. Shoebooks defies the laws of accounting gravity by bringing an affordable and scalable product to the market which is web based whilst highly secure and will meet all of your needs – now and into the future.

I’m serious when I say that if you don’t use this software then you probably need to take a closer look – and if you’ve taken a closer look and you’re still not using it then stop being so stubborn and MOVE WITH THE TIMES!

Call me if you want to speak to any of my clients who have adopted the new era of accounting.

Carolyn Dib - Owner
 Amigos Frachising Pty Ltd
     
    I have been in business for 16 years. It all started with one restaurant and throughout the course of this time expanded to a franchise company with three restaurants, a fashion company and a property development company.

As you can imagine the book keeping end of it all was extremely important and critical in the management of the day to day running of it all. After self managing all the book keeping using MYOB,Quickbooks, an accountant and at times a secretary/ PA I discovered that although I was a great business women I definately was NOT a book keeper. I wanted to spend my time doing what i was good at and passionate about but instead found myself being drowned in book keeping matters constantly. I felt it very hard to trust someone else to manage these affairs.

That was until I discovered Shoebooks. What won me with Shoebooks was firstly the "online" component that allowed multiple users to use this program from multiple locations. Secondly it had ALL the features of the other book keeping systems plus more and was extremely user friendly. I spent almost no time learning how to use it as it was so easy but instead it taught me so much more about the world of book keeping. All the features offered are a big part of the way I do business every day. Thirdly the support and partnership I gained from David and his staff was like no other I had experienced in my career. "on the ball" and innovative in their thinking, Shoebooks the system and organisation is what I would tell any business person to align with immediately to have elevated business management results.

I know I'm never looking back....

 Nanokote Pty Ltd
     
    Starting any new business is difficult and fraught with problems, both market and compliance related. Shoebooks services have been invaluable in setting up my bookkeeping and accounting requirements in addition to catering for my needs as a growing entity. All managers require up to date, easily accessed real time reports to effectively manage their business. Shoebooks provides this along with all other statutory reporting documents.

Ken king - CEO
 Micronisers Pty Ltd
     
   

Micronisers Pty Ltd have been using the Shoebooks Accounting system for over 2 years. We have found the system both cost effective and reliable.

The on-line accounts allows instant updates on all key financial parameters from anywhere in the world. The software is easy to use and allows filtering of employee access depending on the employees function, and thus facilitates “quantified objective based targets” for sales, manufacturing and cost control to be communicated and measured at whatever frequency the business wishes to use.

Further, the software links to our banking and allows Micronisers to handle the vast majority of transactions electronically. Micronisers have had no breaches of security. I have no hesitation in recommending the Shoebooks Accounting system for small to medium sized businesses.

Nick Tate - Financial Controller
 FireVac Services
     
   

Without doubt one of the most flexible accounting systems that I have ever used. Shoebooks has provided our business with a custom solution that has resulted in real savings; both in time and money. We run two independent invoicing systems for our Service & Construction businesses. Using Shoebooks, we are able to import our invoices real time from both of these systems; this functionality in itself is a fantastic feature that saves us days of work. Our payroll function is complex due to the multiple awards that we operate under. The payroll module in Shoebooks takes the pain out of this task and ensures that our staff are paid in a timely manner each week.

I can highly recommend this software to anyone that is looking for a user-friendly system that is supported by functional reporting and great customer service.

Sean Cussell - Director

    I have worked with David Dean Managing Director of Shoebooks for 10 years in his capacity as Bookkeeper and Financial Systems manager.

Shoebooks has managed the data management and accounting of my business affairs during this time. Shoebooks has at all times been diligent, thorough, accurate and professional in their business dealings.

My accounting and bookkeeping are at times complex and require a lot of explanation and stragegy for tax plannning and audit compliance.

I have no hesitation in recommending Shoebooks to my friends and colleagues requiring a bookkeeper and financial systems manager.

    I just wanted let you know how happy I am with Shoebooks. My first year in business was difficult to manage but thankfully your accounting solutions helped me get on with the job. Time management is certainly a key component to any business and using your programs helped minimise the more tedious aspects-namely 'bookwork' and concentrate on 'revenue raising'. Thanks again for all of your assistance.

Tom Walker
 Melbourne Pub Group Pty. Ltd.
     
    I am a Director of several Licensed Venues and have been utilizing Shoebooks since 1999. I was introduced to the system by another small businessman in the same industry at that time.

We have used the system extensively over the past 10 years in two businesses that require monthly reporting in all regards. The system has been administered on site by an office employee and has provided easy to navigate and understand access to all our balance sheet and trading figures that otherwise would have been difficult to otherwise monitor.

The systems efficiency is further enhanced by very strong back up from the company that we used extensively in the early establishment.

I have the highest regard for the systems ease and effectiveness and it is highly suitable for all small to medium enterprises. I would recommend Shoebooks to all businesses looking for a modern accounting solution.
