 HEY GUYS,

 I WOULD LIKE TO  ask for your personal opinion on software usage for carpet cleaning business.  Ive used pre-printed invoices, however i have to finally get into this computer thing

ive tried simply accounting which is a bit confusing 

and

30 day trial of  castle rock  which is just horrible...in beta mode.  I was hoping for something for sophisticated or more user friendly but  ..

is there any other affordable softwares  out there specifically  for carpet cleaning or cleaning business?

thank you

You're in the wrong business or you're not making any money.
Time to get out if you cant support the business with the proper back office requirements.
 
You have to charge enough for your services to be able to afford all the proper equipment, computers, phones, printers etc...
 
Dont just make enough to buy another box of KD to feed the kids.

It's called the cost of doing business. Pay that cost or you should look for a different profession.

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

Are you in a high paying business or are you just a self employed low paid grunt who thinks this business provides dignity?

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.

We use ServiceCEO, great application, but their support has been disappointing to say the least. . .
