It’s almost Halloween. But there’s nothing scary about this month.

We’ve got a new case study from ABC Aircon which makes for an interesting read. Check it out below.  We also have a couple of new guest blogs this month.

On the development side, we had some performance issues this month as customers downloaded a lot more job sheets and invoices than normal. However, we’ve been working hard to minimise the impact for our customers. We’ve been adding extra capacity and re-writing code to make it more easy to pull back lots of records.

September saw us do a review campaign sponsored by Capterra. If you gave us a review, thank you very much, it’s always appreciated.  And if you haven’t yet, Capterra has extended the campaign for another week. So please leave your review today and earn £8.

One thing this rise in technology has brought us is new tools for businesses to utilise, with many of these holding the potential to become an invaluable asset.

System performance updates

Performance enhancements

We’ve been working hard on system performance again this month.  Particularly reducing the impact when customers have thousands of invoices, when they view hundreds of job sheets or if lots of customers keep refreshing the page.

As always, please check our status page for the latest health of the system. You can also sign up for email updates and be the first to know of any change.
