BC Hospitality Confference and Exhibition



This past week we attended the BC Hospitality Conference and Exhibition.

We exhibited under our Smart Hotel Software banner along with H&L, Softrak and Hansen Software.

The show was quite enjoyable. We met many great delegates from all over BC, and some from around the world.

Part of the great marketing we did was a giveaway for a trip to Hawaii. All you had to do was chat with our representatives and you would get entered into the trip. All in all, over 50 people entered, and one lucky person won!

Congratulations to A.J. Hicklin of the Honeymoon Bay Resort on winning our trip to Hawaii!
A.J. will enjoy a weeks accommodation for two at the Holiday Surf Hotel in Honolulu!
Congratulations!

Awesome Add-Ons for QuickBooks 2008

UniResMan has been announced as an Awesome QuickBooks Add-On by the Sleeter Group!


“UniResMan is awesome because it fills a niche that many QuickBooks users need,” said Doug Sleeter, founder of The Sleeter Group. “QuickBooks is the most-used small business accounting software, which results in an incredible demand from users for the software to do just about everything.” Intuit, the maker of QuickBooks, partners with third-party software developers to create solutions that work with QuickBooks to fit the needs of these small businesses.

“UniResMan is one of the best add-ons because of its superior integration with QuickBooks, its overall design, outstanding features and conformance with appropriate accounting standards,” Sleeter said. More than 400 products are available through the Intuit Developer Network as add-ons to the software, but Product Name was one of only 13 “Awesome QuickBooks Add-Ons” named by The Sleeter Group for 2008.

“Before awarding the ‘awesome’ label, I dig deep into each product and ask all the hard questions that consultants and business owners will ask,” Sleeter said. “I survey products in several vertical markets where QuickBooks may not have all the needed features, or where clients want customized solutions.”

Sleeter noted that when making selections for the honor, he and The Sleeter Group’s staff take several factors into consideration. Those selected must have the following attributes:

  • Superior design, implementation and features;
  • Superior integration with QuickBooks, enabling the import and export of data to and from QuickBooks using best practices of the QuickBooks SDK programming interface;
  • Appropriate transaction and field population for recording data into QuickBooks that preserves and/or enhances its standard reporting features;
  • Conformance with good accounting and operating standards, and;
  • Outstanding customer support and overall customer satisfaction.
UniResMan integrates with QuickBooks and many other popular back office accounting products.
