Along with my best friend, who is in his early 20s, we now have the opportunity to set our own business up but I am feeling apprehensive about whether to commit.

Hi my name is Phil I have been in the security alarm busness for about 15 years 11 months ago I went self employed and opened a company (me only ha ha) called Code 1 security. I have picked up aprox 400 customers. I am now finding it hard to manage them with booking in jobs and invoicing. I have looked at software like winsims and Alarm master but I don't have the funds for these and even if I did I feel they are far to expensive. Can anyone help me by telling me if there is any other software I could use that is easy to use and won't break the bank?

Could anyone give me a bit of technical advice please. I would like to relocate the remote keypad for my gardtec alarm system. How do I disarm the system completely? Is it simply a case of entering the engineers code, then remove the aux fuse from the main panel? After doing this, am I free to disconnect the remote keypad and relocate it? Thanks for any advice/tips.
