Hi John,

I am not a reseller.  I have been using the software for about five years now.  I am happy to recommend it.  Please contact me if you have any questions about the software.  I know the software very well.

As for price, Thoughtful Systems has programs starting from $595.  As your business expands, you can add additional modules.  I think it's worth it.

A lot of carpet cleaning companies use The Scheduling Manager software, from Thoughtful Systems.

They have been designing software for 24 years, for the carpet cleaning industry and other service businesses.

It includes scheduling, customer info, accounting, mapping, payroll and comes with a powerful e-mail module for marketing.

The main version is stand-alone, and will run fine on a network with 3 (or more) users.

I use a combination of Quickbooks for the accounting end of things and File Maker Pro to keep track of everything else.

Magic Service Manager...probably the least expensive solution out there.

There is a free trial that holds up to 15 customers in it so you can test it out.

Thanks to all the responses, and sorry i've been late on the reply...have been out of town. Holidays Ouch

I lucked out, a friend owns several businesses and runs quickbooks enterprise edition. This edition allows you to use the "contractors" edition which is great for people in the service industry. I think it's an expensive program but he added me as a legal user so I can use the software legally with no problems.
I agree, spending a G on software seems unnecessary when there are alternatives for less than half the price.
I think you can buy a stand alone version of quickbooks contractors edition for just a couple hundred bucks. It's worked out great for me. I highly recommend it.

For those of you old enough to remember shareware download in the days of BBSes, you should recognize that QuickBooks is a descendant of a program written by the man who is the founder of GoDaddy.  Yes Suzie, there was life before the internet.
Are you in a high paying business or are you just a self employed low paid grunt who thinks this business provides dignity?

Quickbooks works fine. You just have to take the time to customize it to your needs.
