Re: Request for Information
Never heard of it but that's no surprise, looks like one-man band / family business. Their facebook page has 13 likes, so how tech savvy are they - no wonder they need help!! Must be struggling to get support beyond the immediate family, eh?
I don't know that hardly anyone here is using Sage products - it's all about the more home growen MYOB and Xero here.

Re: Request for Information
Yeah, I would be concerned about someone only selling Sage, I only see MYOB or Xero being used, but that doesn't mean it should stop you taking the job necessarily.

Thanks for this.
Sorry for the delay.
I've been busy and not checking up on the answers.

Re: Request for Information
I've taken a look and see their products only work on windows programs - hmm
I may have completely missed it but I would ask if they are implementing their systems onto cloud, to be able to be used on androids, apple products etc. Given the constant changes of the technology world, i'd make sure to see that their products can function across a wide range of software. Not saying that it's a bad thing, but I know of accountants that use their tablets to do all their work. I couldn't see anything in there that suggested their product was compatible.

Re: Request for Information
Just an update for those interested.
I am still waiting to hear from them although they have received my references.
The head of the company spoke with my Current boss and said I suited their requirements apparently but nothing has happened thus far.

Re: Request for Information
I'm not surprised, it is still the holidays Stephen, most people we know packed up work from 19th December some folks will be making some casual steps towards the office tomorrow and putting in a show of face for a while to maintain the ruse that they're not on leave - meanwhile their heads, wives and kids will be still very much be at the beach, bach or boat.
Don't expect much real work to get going until next week from the 12th
