We expected a difficult learning process but its been much simpler than expected.

Owner

The fact I can pair it with my accounting software is also a huge bonus.

Office manager

i like the project part of powered now, invoicing The support is really good, [sensitive content hidden] was quick to solve my problem

On top of that the team are all amazing and whenever you need them they could not be any more helpful if they tried.

Gas Engineer

Service Engineer

Good off line access, simple to use invoicing and quoting

Managing Director

No integration for New Zealand MYOB and no NZ certificates.

Administrator

Would be good to be able to add specifics to each customer account, I.E. payment terms and for the due date to show on the invoices & reports.

Overall happy with the product and difficult to find a better alternative for the price

Electrician

This worked really well, after completing the work it was really easy to send out an invoice.

Plumber

The price as it’s expensive and not that affordable

Plumbing and Heating engineer 

I also use this software to monitor my business performance and I am able to calculate my annual taxes.

Company Director

The cost of the subscription is well worth the money and pays for itself with the man hours saved within our business.

Great for costings & managing jobs as projects

Electrician 

Honestly PN has saved my lofe and career and has given me so much freedom, I encourage you if you are struggling to manage the business this is the product you will be able to do more without needing to add to your team.

I is so user friendly (I haven't even had any training yet been using it for weeks), with so many useful features, suddenly I found a ladder to get me out the deep hole I was in, now I completing more jobs than ever, quotes, invoices, payment all easily manageable, and the job is fun again.

The software is very user friendly and this has been helpful to show other team members how to use it.

Solved our main headache of finding a way to centralize our business (office, on the road, on-site).  

I have been very impressed with the help received from the Live Chat.

Gas engineer 

The fact that it doesn’t have it’s own navigation system and I have to use an external one.

We’ve struggled for a while to get something with all the functionality Powered Now has and we have been pleasantly surprised with its mobility.  

Heating engineer 

Interface especially on mobile is functional but clunky and looks dated

Director/Engineer

The ease of invoicing, paperwork, quoting.

Managing Director 

Has the ability to adapt to cross working streams.

Maybe CSV file uploading capability (products).

It’s really easy to use and has been great for our business.

Is very easy to create nice invoices, add details for jobs.

We are using their professional plan with a two-user licence.

love the technical backup and the quick follow-up to any queries.

Powered Now is easy to use both in the office and for the technicians in the field

The diary and certificate system is very simple to use

The technical support is really good, its quick, personal and very efficient.

Prompt replies and professional, polite people.
