when you download the demo, leave the window open, this way you can use it basicly for years  ;D for every time you close it, after your finished, you have used up 1 of your 50 shots  ;D dont shut it down just minimize it

I was exhibiting at the FWC exhibition yesterday and whilst there met a really nice guy called Ian Hannaford, he has some software that organises your rounds etc and is an outstanding piece of kit. Very user friendly and worlds apart from the george program, i was also surprised to hear it is a one off payment of around £150, the software is called window cleaner pro...take a look before purchasing the george

www.windowcleanerpro.com

I should be asking for commision

Kind regards,

David

its brilliant.

takes one click too, to do end of tax year reports, pass that to the accountant and all you pay is him filling in the tax return.

cos i dont understand them, especially when things you claim for are carried over to the year after etc.

Hi Steve

The fact that window cleaning pro has been discussed on here previously is irrelevant and has not been discussed by myself

The fact a forum member is trying to improve his/her business by using the latest technlogy available is what matters and that individual has the right to know what is out there to make life as easy as can be.
The price may be wrong, I couldn't remember the exact price and now I have looked at the site it is £127.99

It maybe more expensive than george but from what I saw, I would pay far more than that for the product

Well its a good point. I didnt like George and thats why I stuck with the system I have always used.
If I saw it up and running then I might be tempted.
Would like to see a demo

I am pretty sure you can download a demo from the website and then if it works for you buy an activation key, or speak with Ian he is a very approachable guy

Good seeing you at the show Sean and thanks for signing up to the new clean safe passport, we are expecting this to be a real asset in the future and are now looking forward to the lead up to Windex

Also I will get Jamie to email you those training details on Monday

PLus i seen the HUGE list of add ons hes got in the pipeline, soon there wil be nothing it cannot do!!

THanks dave, only problem i might have is the date, i think  i might have an appaointment double booked?
Email though and i will let you know!

George is very good, as a sole trader it will give you everything you need for earning, expenses, and keeping your round in order.
that said, i have demo'd WCP, it is also very good and the team behind it are very approachable and quick to deal with questions.
they both offer demos, george 3 months, wcp 45 days (i tried it last year couldn't get to grips with it, so asked nicely and got a second try)
try them both, but put the cost at the bottom of the pro's and cons list.

at the moment i use george, but come the end of the financial year, I will be considering wcp.
hope that helps ;)

I have used George and tried WCP.I was impressed with WCP so I bought it.
I also spoke to Ian at the show and he showed me things I did not know about it had. Also they are plannig a email news letter with tips to help you get the most out of it. He also had a  4/5 page list of things window cleaners had sugested to add onto it.
If you are woried about the price you can pay monthly ( I think its about £16 )

Thanks for your support guys, Ian and I really do appreciate it and it means a lot to both of us that you speak up for WCP on this forum.
