Freya provided in person training and regular guidance. Once I had the knowhow and practical experience, I was able to utilise the software regularly with minimal error.
A month or so into the future, I have experienced a more efficient and streamlined workflow. I now reconcile weekly, and have a clear view of invoicing and billing, as well as a better picture of how the business cashflow is tracking. Overall the service has helped me to move the business forward and it has alleviated a lot of personal and business stress.
