Not heard of System 8 before ? any good ? Whats peoples thought on Cash ? It's good to be fair, works well for alarms and extinguishers. Takes some getting used too but couldn't cope without it now Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/39994-whats-best/#findComment-444639 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lwillis Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 I think cash was around £15k AM is above half the price. it will depend on what modules you go for etc. As with everything tho you'll med to spend time inputting all the data for it to work for you instead of against you we've had AM for about 3 months and it's still not right, missing stock etc Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/39994-whats-best/#findComment-444679 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElecTech Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 When you say "alarm handling software" what exactly do you mean? Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/39994-whats-best/#findComment-444746 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammin31 Posted April 13, 2016 Author Share Posted April 13, 2016 Software like alarm master that manages engineers jobs, customer and system details in full as well as stock management, sales and so on. ive been an avid user of AM but dont like it so now we are looking to replace this with new software altogether but wondered what people use and find good, also most importantly including the pda or mobile phone compatibility.
