    Headphone & Microphone Suggestion for Busy office Environment

    I had rang them, they suggested to stay with the physical phone for stability and that the dual option is the pipeline but no date as yet... I need to buy a snom EHS and then can use pretty much any headset option. The mic relates more to voice to text for dictation purposes. I'm wondering...

    Estimate cost for VOIP

    We pay for voipfone. It can either be used on a physical handset or on the pc or a mobile phone. But not all 3 We went with physical phones in the first instance as they are then 'always on' and won't be affected by WiFi drops as the physical phones are hard wired

    Headphone & Microphone Suggestion for Busy office Environment

    Looking for something that is monoaural, wireless (bluetooth?) that will work with our Snom D712 phones? But also perhaps be able to link up to both our mobile phones and our laptop? If this is possible? We use Voipfone as our phone provider Or should we ditch the Snom D712 and use Softphone...

    My experience with accounting software as a construction business is as follows: Used Freeagent initially - which was great, cheap and cheerful but quickly outgrew the fact it didn't offer full CIS support only workarounds. Currently using Clearbooks which is great and helpful staff but 2...

    Xero QuickBooks Sage Fresh books Kashflow

    Signed up to 14 day trial in kashflow, unfortunately it's the same as clearbooks it doesn't allow direct auto feed only import of CSV/xls Looks quite decent though but a bit 'dated' I think I'll stick with clearbooks for now and see if they hopefully support the feed soon. It's a pain...

    Accounting Software - Time to Review

    Yep and it doesn't work too well Getting capitalontap to autofeed would be ideal solution. But neither clearbooks or capitalontap say this will happen anytime soon Surprising how much a small item can spoil the experience

    Accounting Software - Time to Review

    I originally used freeagent which was great but didn't account for CIS very well so switched to Clearbooks Clearbooks is brilliant as I use it for Vat, cis, payroll etc and it's good. The downsides which are proving to be big are: 1. There is no way to get an auto bank feed from my card...

    Year 3 - Next Steps
