Pros
After looking at various products on the market, this was the very best that suited our needs. Has the ability to adapt to cross working streams.
Is very easy to create nice invoices, add details for jobs. Notes are very good too, as are the reminders and the excellent help team.
I have been with Powered Know for over 3 years and have nothing but fantastic reviews. The system is very easy to use and there is always someone on hand to help out anytime of the day.
Cons
It can be glitchy ,which randomly closes the project your working on so you have to restart sometimes. You get the odd day where it won’t work for hours which is frustrating.
Lack of a bank register to track all income & expenses in one place, Unable to upload pdf files to projects (been told is coming soon though).
Tired of having to reboot to make it respond correctly, so often.
