When it comes to evaluating accounting software, sometimes I like to start with a quick look at some representative screens. Unfortunately, too often a quick glimpse of these screens usually means that you have to get a reseller involved, they give you the third degree, they eat hours of your time, and eventually you are able to get that sneak peak you have been waiting for. By then, you are beaten down and made weary by the process. Maybe you know what I am talking about. To help you out, I've provided some representative screens below. Enjoy.   

SouthWare has retained their older screen designs in order to provide compatibility with it's customers legacy hardware and green screen monitors. In March 2003, SouthWare released SouthWare Excellence Series 9.0 which features new and improved screens. We will feature these screens here as soon as we have access to them. Here are a few representative screens for SouthWare Excellence Series, version 8.4.

SouthWare Excellence Series provides a Messaging System – This was a great feature in the 80’s and other top products such as ACCPAC ProSeries feature this functionality. With the advent of e-mail, you would think that this would no longer be necessary – however SouthWare Excellence Series integrates this system with it’s Business Alerts technology – making it a critical tool – even today.
