Office Manager

Retail · 51–200 employees Botswana Used for 2+ years

The quiet workhorse of our Cape Town business

Our bookkeeper of fifteen years says it is the most honest package she has used. Support calls reach someone who has seen our exact question before. The report writer produces exactly the statements our accountant wants. For SA businesses that value substance, look here first.

Bookkeeper · Southern Cross Trading Holdings

13 February 2026

Wholesale · 11–50 employees South Africa Used for 2+ years

Good but not perfect for our Sandton team

The engine is proven, the presentation is vintage. The ecosystem of consultants is small outside KwaZulu Natal. Support calls reach someone who has seen our exact question before.

Pros

Works through load shedding

Bookkeeper

Logistics · 51–200 employees South Africa Used for Less than 6 months

Frustrating experience for our 80 person team

Hiring staff who knew the system took a quarter. Our online store sync ran on a custom script that broke quarterly. The interface put off every young hire we showed it to.

Cons

Custom integration scripts break

Manufacturing · 11–50 employees South Africa Used for Less than 6 months

Good but not perfect for our Vanderbijlpark team

We trust it completely and explain it occasionally. Remote access needs remote desktop or hosting arrangements. New bookkeepers rarely arrive knowing it, training falls to us.

Pros

Durban support that knows your file; job costing to the cent

Cons

Remote access needs arranging

Director

27 July 2025

Food & Beverage · 1–10 employees South Africa Used for 2+ years

Honest software from down the road

The engine is proven, the presentation is vintage. Documentation assumes some bookkeeping fluency. Job costing shows margins per job to the cent.

Cons

Vintage interface

Retail · 1–10 employees South Africa Used for 6–12 months

Grew with us switch by switch

Dependable software that dresses plainly. The mobile story is essentially absent.

Pros

Cons

Remote access needs arranging

General Manager

25 May 2025

Retail Botswana Used for Less than 6 months

Working well for our 30 person team

The quote for our whole setup undercut the big names by half. Processing speed on the local database beats every browser system we tested. Local, honest and quietly excellent. Recommended.

Cons

Small consultant ecosystem

Director

10 February 2025

Retail · 1–10 employees South Africa Used for Less than 6 months

Working well for our 4 person team

We switched on job costing the month our factory needed it and paid only for that switch. Bill of materials handles our light manufacturing without ceremony. Support calls reach someone who has seen our exact question before.

Wholesale · 11–50 employees South Africa Used for 2+ years

Expected better, Ballito customer

Our shift to remote work turned the desktop base into a daily fight. Moving our history out took a consultant and a month. Our online store sync ran on a custom script that broke quarterly.

Cons

Custom integration scripts break

Point of sale at the counter feeds the ledger in the back office directly. Support calls reach someone who has seen our exact question before.

Wholesale · 1–10 employees South Africa Used for 1–2 years

Our accountant in East London recommended it, good call

We started with the bookkeeping core and grew feature by feature, no migrations ever. The report writer produces exactly the statements our accountant wants. Support calls reach someone who has seen our exact question before. Forty years of surviving this market says everything.

Pros

Native SA VAT and SARS fit; feature switches instead of forced editions

Cons

Online integrations need bridging

Operations Manager

27 October 2024

South Africa Used for 1–2 years

Still glad we chose it, 2 years later

As a Gqeberha wholesaler, the local pedigree shows in how VAT and SARS returns just fit. The switch model means you never pay for features you do not run. The switch model should embarrass the edition sellers.

Pros

Job costing to the cent; native SA VAT and SARS fit

Cons

New staff need training from scratch

Candice Oosthuizen

Managing Director · Fynbos Farming

11 August 2024

Agriculture · 1–10 employees South Africa Used for 2+ years

Solid choice for our Stellenbosch business

The branch consolidation switch unified our two stores without a project. The system runs happily on modest hardware, no server upgrade demanded. VAT returns align with SARS expectations out of the box.

Pros

Feature switches instead of forced editions

Cons

Remote access needs arranging

11 March 2026

Wholesale · 51–200 employees South Africa Used for 6–12 months

Doing okay for our 95 person setup

The engine is proven, the presentation is vintage. The interface belongs to an earlier era and works like it too. VAT returns align with SARS expectations out of the box.

Cons

Online integrations need bridging
