Download a free 45 day trial copy of Small Business Helper! In today's technologically advanced world, choosing the right software for your office is a more important decision than ever. Most programs today still focus primarily on storing and retrieving information. Rather than offering another flavor of this type of approach, we have endeavored to go a step further and build a program that serves as an interactive business partner capable of helping your business prosper. To accomplish this, we designed Small Business Helper around three key principles: 1. An office support software program should be easy to use, save you time, and help you increase revenue, 2. An office support software program should help you manage and foster the client relationships you need to get and keep happy clients, 3. An office support software program should both help your business grow and be ready to grow with you. In addition to offering industry leading contact management, billing, project management, and scheduling modules, Small Business Helper also links with industry leading programs like MS Word and WordPerfect for document assembly, Quickbooks and other general ledger accounting programs for accounting, and PalmPilot for on-the-road access to your data. We've also included an Import Wizard so you can import your data from other programs without having to start from scratch. Designed for firms of any size, Small Business Helper ships network ready out-of-the-box. Multi-user features include group scheduling, shared access to files, and detailed security settings. Small Business Helper is scalable to MS SQL Server or any ODBC compliant database for client-server solutions. For firms seeking total mobility and effortless distribution, Small Business Helper is also available in a browser-based version, Small Business Helper.com.
