VirtualBoss is an easy to use scheduling, project, and task management software designed (and is continually upgraded) for contractors, by a real contractor! VirtualBoss is great for keeping track of all of your tasks (major scheduling items, punch lists, service call items, warranty items, administrative tasks, etc); you will never have to worry about forgetting what needs to be done again. Throw away those yellow pads of paper…VirtualBoss will keep everything organized in one convenient place! With VirtualBoss and a couple of key strokes, you can easily look up what needs to be done. As things change, you can update the entire schedule in just a few key strokes. VirtualBoss offers an extremely simple way to notify your subs, employees, supplier, customers, etc. You can fax and / or email hundreds of professional work orders in just a couple of clicks. When you click on the fax button, it will fax out work orders to anyone who has a fax number; when you click on the email button, anyone with an email address will receive an email. This will give you the option to notify all of these important people without needing to call each and every one of them. What more could you ask for?
A great advantage of VirtualBoss is that you are able to see all of your tasks and jobs, from the past, present, and future, in one convenient place. Using the filters, you can see just what you want to see. For example, you can filter down to just one job, or one contact, or one contact at one job. You can see what was done, or what needs to be done. You can take advantage of the other extensive filtering options designed to help you see exactly what you want to see. You can view your scheduling items on a Task List, a Gantt Chart, or a Calendar. You can also print Schedules and Work Orders. In addition to these features, VirtualBoss will organize your jobs and contacts, and track insurance and workman’s compensation.
VirtualBoss for the Palm and Pocket PC allow you to take VirtualBoss with you on the road; no more having sheets of paper on the job site. The handheld versions synchronize with your desktop computer, allowing you to have your schedule in hand while you are in the field. You can add, edit, and delete tasks, contacts, and jobs, just like you can on the PC version. Almost everything that you can do on the desktop version can be done with our Palm and Pocket PC versions. When you have finished your work in the field, come back to the office and synchronize your PDA with your computer, and the changes on both systems will be synchronized. It will eliminate you from having to sort through sheets of paper and enter all the information over again!
VirtualBoss also has an incredible feature called Remote VirtualBoss. Remote VirtualBoss gives you or anybody with the password the ability to access their task list, contact information, and job information from anywhere in the world! This gives you the opportunity to keep your schedule up-to-date no matter where you are. No more calling meetings or heading to the office every day after work. If you have an Internet enabled device (desktop computer, laptop, phone, PDA, etc.) with a web browser, you will be able to make live updates to the schedule without going to the office. What could be better?
VirtualBoss is made to exchange information with QuickBooks. This link increases the power of what QuickBooks can do for your business. Synchronization with QuickBooks allows you to integrate and synchronize your QuickBooks Vendors with VirtualBoss Contacts, and your QuickBooks Customers with your VirtualBoss Jobs and vice versa. By synchronizing this information together, you save time and increase the accuracy of key business functions. Now your scheduling system can draw on and update your accounting information, rather than making you perform double entry.
With VirtualBoss, the time you spend managing your jobs will be reduced due to better planning, communication, increased thoroughness, and less oversights. The time you can save is incredible!
