I posted this in the Tech section, but I was hoping that, specifically, other flooring guys would let me know what they use.

(I wanted to list this on the trade specific forum, so I hope the mods don't mind)

Not sure what you are specifically wanting to accomplish but we use QuickBooks Premier (contractor edition). It has grown us from our start 5 years ago to a multi-million sales and install company. (And, like the last response, we started out with an excel spreadsheet.....no comparison!) It is easy to use, but would suggest you might want to pay an accountant or someone else familiar with QB to set up your company. After that you have and can modify all of your forms, you have ToDo's, you have notes, you track jobs' start and end, you track purchases by job, pay out to subs, EVERYTHING you need right down to taxes. The professional presentation and organization that QB gave us definately won builder's over, and we have grown strictly word of mouth because of this...and of course our products and skills (LOL)!
