Dependable software that dresses plainly. New bookkeepers rarely arrive knowing it, training falls to us. The system runs happily on modest hardware, no server upgrade demanded.

The engine is proven, the presentation is vintage. Remote access needs remote desktop or hosting arrangements. Processing speed on the local database beats every browser system we tested.
Pros
Durban support that knows your file
Cons
Online integrations need bridging

The quote for our whole setup undercut the big names by half. The switch model means you never pay for features you do not run. Job costing shows margins per job to the cent.
Pros
Honest local pricing

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. It has earned its decades and our loyalty.
Pros
Feature switches instead of forced editions; works through load shedding

The branch consolidation switch unified our two stores without a project. The system runs happily on modest hardware, no server upgrade demanded. Our books run on Durban software and we like it that way.
Pros
Decades of proven stability

We started with the bookkeeping core and grew feature by feature, no migrations ever. Support calls reach someone who has seen our exact question before. It has earned its decades and our loyalty.

Hiring staff who knew the system took a quarter. Moving our history out took a consultant and a month.

Dependable software that dresses plainly. The interface belongs to an earlier era and works like it too. Integrations with online stores need custom bridging.

Cons
Small consultant ecosystem

Loyalty kept us two years past the right time to move. The interface put off every young hire we showed it to. Moving our history out took a consultant and a month.

Desktop base fights remote work. History export took a consultant
