Good usability, annoying module management and Abozwang

I use a self-employed WISO My office since version 2009 and at that time was really excited about the program because it facilitates the simple cash accounting / bookkeeping for self-employed and freelancers immensely. From customer acquisition, on the item master, vendor master, through to accounting and easier EÜR and turnover tax return, the program takes off a lot of work in the administration of the book accounts / cashbook and invoicing. The business development and the data bases of accounting can be also easily spend in overviews and lists. The operation is in relation to other programs such as Intuit, a lot more intuitive. With some training and the necessary basic knowledge, you can manage all tasks with my office.

Unfortunately distinguished with version 2015, the development fee modules from ever. Meanwhile, only the normal product management, accounting and easy customer management in the basic program included, the validity of which is only one year. If you want to continue working with the program, a new license fee to the Buhl Data Service GmbH is once a year overdue, but is more expensive than a new purchase. While it is with the new license key to upgrade the existing software and use more, this is true then but not to the modules additionally needed to.

In the earlier versions were still partially functions included that are now chargeable bookable only as an additional module, and wants to lead his dataset neatly with the program, you will inevitably not to modules like inventory and customer management (contract +) over access to Outlook and the important DATEV interface for tax consultants also cost an extra month. This is a point which annoyed me in previous years, and is also not improved with version 2015. Additionally you can also book also interfaces to the MarketPlace Amazon, its webshop or eBay store as a fee-based modules. The modules make it possible to manage all over my office and tax to be correctly identified.

Buhl Data knows very well that you can not switch easily to another program once its well been entered into data and customer base, and arrived here with his ongoing subscription charge and the current module costs vigorously. The funny thing, you have no subscription extended for another year, you can no longer use the software after the next update, as the program automatically adjusts the license with Buhl Data and locks the program to access. The only way out to let the software upgrade is no longer on the automatic update, but not when used in addition modules. If you have a large dataset, you will inevitably bound to this program and its follow-up costs.

Basically, the user-friendliness of the program is good, but the subscription model of Buhl Data Service is a nuisance. However, anyone who is willing to long-term relationships over the subscription model to Buhl Data Service, which receives the program an always current management software for small businesses and freelancers who can be operated much more easily with some training, as do many competing programs.
