Marcy,
As an FYI, this software doesn't work with MAC; and I
know that Neal runs a MAC. See below.
Operating System Microsoft Windows 7, Windows XP, Windows 2003 Server,
Windows Server 2008, and Windows VistaÂ.
While
Windows XP Home, Windows Vista Home Premium and Windows 7 Home
Premium are supported, we strongly recommend running a business
edition. Because of limitations placed on home editions by Microsoft, home
editions will not be supported as a server platform or as a client in an office
using a domain controller.
Time Matters is not compatible with
Mac Operating Systems.

Eric-
As we discussed, you should be looking at 3
categories of software: practice management, billing, and bookkeeping.
In the category of practice management, you are
already familiar with TimeMatters and, on its merits, I recommend TimeMatters.
Out of the box, TimeMatters - and all practice management software - can
appear a little daunting but TimeMatters is highly customizable and very
powerful. The price to purchase TimeMatters is $905 for the first user and
$525 for each additional user. As a certified consultant I can get a discount
of at least 10% off that price for you.
In the categories of billing and bookkeeping, you
have a number of choices. Lexis has stopped selling BillingMatters, which was,
in effect, one program combined with TimeMatters for both billing and
bookkeeping. In its place, Lexis offers PCLaw, which also offers both billing
and bookkeeping. PCLaw is the billing/bookkeeping program which is most highly
integrated with TimeMatters. The price to purchase PCLaw is $905 for the first
user and $455 for each additional user. You must have at least as many users
as you have timekeepers. Again, I can get a discount of at least 10% off the
above price for you.
As Lexis subscribers, you are eligible to subscribe
to Total Practice Advantage which gives you both TimeMatters and PCLaw as a
monthly subscription instead of as a one-time purchase. I have asked my Lexis
contact to give us a quote on that for 6 users and am waiting for him to get
back to me.
Other options that we discussed included
purchasing:
- TABS3 for billing at a cost of $1,875
(for the multi-user version) and the associated suite of bookkeeping software
for $2,655; or
- Timeslips for billing at a cost of $1,998.99
and upgrading QuickBooks (to add users) and continuing to use QuickBooks
for your bookkeeping.
You can mix & match these options so, for
example, you could choose to use TimeMatters for practice mangement, TABS3 or
PCLaw or Timeslips for billing, and continue to use QuickBooks for
bookkeeping.
TimeMatters has links to all of the programs
mentioned - PCLaw, TABS3, Timeslips, and QuickBooks - which allow for the
exchange of information between TimeMatters and the other programs.
If you opt for the TABS3 suite of billing and
bookkeeping software, you might also consider the related practice management
software, Practice Master (this would take the place of TimeMatters and, thus,
bears some further comparison). If you do this, however, I would recommend
taking a closer look at the client-server version of this software which is
faster and adds some functions. The client-server versions of TABS3 and its
related suite of bookkeeping software is more expensive than the multi-user
version quoted above.
Included in the prices quoted above for all the
programs, is the price of an annual maintenance agreement. The annual
maintenance agreement entitles you to technical support from the manufacturer
for software issues and to any new versions of the software that are
issued during the term of the agreement. You pay to renew the maintenance
agreement each year.
My services include consulting, installation, setup,
and training for any of the above and, if desired, customization for
TimeMatters. My rate is $150 per hour for all services. I can give you a more
detailed quote for my services when you're ready.
The requirements for TimeMatters and PCLaw are
attached. TABS3 and Timeslips will have similar requirements.
Let me know if you have any further questions.
