Bill will no doubt be along shortly, he'll give you his honest views on what to do and which way to go about it.

My only advice is below

Do not use Mercury software.

The only problem is, Bill won't sing the praises of his own company, he'll offer good impartial advice. So let me do it on his behalf, save your time looking at all other systems, just get Datamaster.

Sorry I’ve been out my van (whoops office) for most of the day on another system changeover (that we don’t do). :badgrin:

The best bet is to read all the info on our web site then give the office a call and ask for me. There’s a lot that needs to be discussed to make sure you understand everything that’s involved and I hopefully I can run you through the pros and avoid the cons. It may well be that you’d be better sticking to pen and paper but we’d need to see exactly why your needs are.

Bill :)

You're not going to get such an honest answer from any other firm tbh.

I'm a bit biased on this subject having changed one firm from Mercury to Datamaster, helping start a new firm on datamaster and even the other two (one? there's been a muuurder, sorry, merger) installing Datamaster.
In just 12 months, our town is now run soley by these very reliable, helpful and friendly people.
Great for operators and drivers that switch companies.
