On the whole I am happy with powerednow but could be better, it’s expensive for a small business and doesn’t do the things that would really save time like monthly statements and reminders of outstanding debts
Pros
The billing and quoting coupled with the diary and following a job in projects
Cons
Not having a deposit option in invoices.
Not having statements created.
Not having automatic reminders on invoices.
When creating multiple quotes and invoices to the same contact you have to go back to contact menu for each one.
Changing an appointment does not notify contact.
Not able to put monthly prices in a quote, I.e. purchase of hardware is a one off, service charge could be monthly.

I used it when free but no way on earth would I pay even a pound a month.
Pros
Sending invoice through app.
That’s all
Cons
Price. Speed (really laggy) OS.
all round crap. Keyboard gets in way when typing.

Calendar needs improvement

I found there are lots of excellent features which I don’t actually need, and for the money I pay each year I could possibly just set up a template for my email and send via that. But for the large scale builder these features would be a god send.
Pros
It can safe lots of time and searching past prices/ materials is excellent.
Saves with posting invoices and also alerts you when your customer has opened the invoice etc.
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.
I had a short spell of my invoices being classified spam to clients, but the online chat operators are very responsive.

It’s good compared to ServiceM8. That product has a better interface and many features but implements them terribly. It’s quick to invoice and set up, diary mode is very good.
Pros
Workflow and projects are great. It’s priced well, has CP12s. 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.
Cons
Interface especially on mobile is functional but clunky and looks dated
Hi Alec, thanks for the feedback. We just rolled out an update to mobile which I hope you like!

Far easier to use over other products, superior value for money than other products, customer service and technical support second to none.

Cons
Struggling to think of one.

Pros
Simple to use. Helps keep all information on a clients job in 1 place under individual file.
The main reason i chose this programme a couple of years ago (i think it was that long ago) is because you can load the programme without an internet connection. Then, when you've got that connection, you can update it and then all that info is available on my ipad, iPhone and laptop. Brilliant!
I don't use all the features at the moment, i use quoting, invoicing, the diary and comms with clients which ensure my business looks professional.
Cons
It would be good to have a save function when leaving some screens so you don't loose note that are typed up.
The time-keeping function could be a lot better. I'd specifically like to price a job up with materials and labour. Then when i carry out that job i'd like to record actual against estimated then see the profit and loss with that info. But this is very specific to my own business needs.

so far so good.
Pros
love the technical backup and the quick follow-up to any queries.
Cons
for a one man business that needs additional functions that the business tier doesn't offer, but doesnt need all the features of the pro tier, i think its slightly pricey. annual subscription does make the cost more acceptable

Pros
Powered Now is very simple and straight forward to use, very flexible and covers all aspects required by a tradesman or small business
Before I used Powered Now I was lost in a pile of scraps of paper which ultimately some customers got forgotten and did not get charged. Powered now brought everything into line it helped me manage the money and provide a more professional approach. Certainly my income went up when using it so it makes economical sense, on that one reason it made Powered now a no brainer. You enter a job when it comes in, send out quote, customer accepts on line, choose a date in the calendar for completion, raise invoice and send, customer opens (you get a message to say they have) they pay you direct into your account you send a receipt. Not a pen or paper needed or in sight
Searching for unpaid invoices is there at a glance, I send a reminder and generally they are then paid. No files, folders cabinets or piles of papers what's not to like. Help desk team are very effective always prompt with their help and service and in the few times I have needed them they have never failed. (Embarrassingly it was usually my fault)
I love the way you can personalise your invoices and quotes. My customers also love it. One letting agency said they thought I had employed someone to do my admin
Cons
There is nothing to dislike as it's a very flexible package, you tailor it to suit yourself, it's has many options. Love the report facility
Help desk team are very effective always prompt with their help and service and in the few times I have needed them they have never failed. (Embarrassingly it was usually my fault)

The software is awesome and has saved me countless hours of paperwork. The support is EXEMPLARY.....
Pros
I run a training company and I have been using Powered Now for about two months. The software is awesome and has saved me countless hours of paperwork. The support is EXEMPLARY.... even before I was a customer, I messaged a question at 8pm on a Friday night and got a live response from a REAL person (Liam) in seconds. Nothing is a problem for them. Graham gave me a live demo and spent over a hour with me showing how Powered Now could help my business, at this stage I wasn't even a customer. I was so impressed, I signed up. So how much for this level of service? You'd expect it to cost a fortune wouldn't you. If I said stop drinking that high street coffee for a month.... and here's the best part if you opt for the two year deal it's even less money...
Cons
NONE
Thanks for the fantastic review Steve, its always nice to hear good things about us and the team. I'll make sure I buy Graham and Liam a well done coffee! :)
