When you agree to use our software, you
also have our resources available to you to set up and configure the
software with your chart of accounts and department structure, all
without the expense of travel to your site. Our primary discipline
is accounting. We do this all the time. We can understand your
problems. We can effectively configure your accounts and departments
to the software so you can focus on more important things, like
managing your organization or deploying the software to your other
users. We price our
software license to include the data setup and configuration
services, all for $885. This is for a ten user license with
no additional shipping and handling in the
U.S. A printed User’s Manual is included
for users in the continental U.S. A copy of the User’s Manual in
Word format is also included on CD. The data setup and configuration
services would include an organization with up to about 20
departments and about 500 primary GL P&L accounts. For larger
organizations with significant deviations from these base department
and GL counts, we can offer a fixed cost proposal based on a review
of the accounts and departments. The above price is for the
non-modifiable base version 1 of the software which is subject to an
annual license fee of $200 per 10 user license. A twenty user license would cost $400
each subsequent year and an additional $200 the first year because
the base software includes the first 10 users. We price our software
this way, on a pay as you go basis, to allow smaller organizations
access to our software product without the initial larger up-front
cost for an unlimited license. If an organization decides to not use
our software in the future, they may stop paying future license
fees. Support for our software will be included so long as a valid
software license is maintained. The price of the license fees will
not be increased,
For larger organizations, or
organizations that require access to the underlying computer code,
we offer our fully-modifiable version 2. Full access to all
programming objects, reports, and forms are available on an
unrestricted basis. The
program may be modified to meet the specific needs of the
organization. There are no limits to the number of users within your
organization. There are no
ongoing annual license fees. Two years of support are included.
Setup and data file configuration are included as above. The price
is $2,495. After the two years of support are used, ongoing support
can be purchased for $125 per year.
