Choosing the right accounting software and estimating package

Posted by Paul Walton on July 1, 2012 at 12:15pm

Hi to all!

I've been getting by over the last couple of years managing my accounts and producing quotes by using an xcel spreadsheet. It was fine when I first of all started up but now it's getting to the point where I feel I have no idea how well the business is performing. 

I'm also finding producing quotes using a spreadsheet has it's limitations, often something is overlooked and despite having a template for various job types, i.e. laying a patio or building a pond the process of producing a quote can be long, drawn out and tedious. 

Are there any 'affordable' account and estimating software packages that anyone can recommend, to simplify the running of my business?

Ideally a software package that has an integrated estimating and accounts system would be best rather than using two separate programs.
