Craig Vaughn’s architecture firm, Fusch Architects, was fighting an uphill battle of inefficiency when it came to billing. They were designing complex structures yet struggling with drafting simple invoices. Something had to give.
Frustrated, they decided to give ArchiOffice a try. They were thrilled to discover that by implementing ArchiOffice, they were able to select projects and generate batches of invoices in just seconds. The days of generating invoices in QuickBooks and reformatting them in a word processor were quickly becoming just a memory.
Using ArchiOffice, Fusch knew their project budget reports were automatically accurate—current to the last time slip entered. Any architect knows: the last thing you want to be unclear on is how you’re stacking up against the budget, and the last thing you want to be behind on is getting paid. As Craig professes, “ArchiOffice is the all-in-one solution for architectural firms: managing time entry, billing, project budgeting, reporting, documents, and team calendars and workflow.” Thanks Craig! We couldn’t have said it better ourselves!
Now that Craig has more free time on his hands, he can enjoy fiddling around with the free iPad BQE Software is sending him for winning our “Facebook Like” Contest. Congratulations Craig—Enjoy!!

Dave,We really appreciate your feedback. Just for the record ArchiOffice 2012 has gone through a rigorous testing and completed a 5 week intensive beta program where every incident reported from users was addressed to prior the public version. We invited all customers to participate and nearly 100 firms worked with us during the 5 weeks to convert their ArchiOffice 2011 or 2010 data to ArchiOffice 2012 and provide us with their feedback based on their experiences. We now have a few hundred firms who have completed their migration and rest assured not all of them are experiencing the accounting issues that you have experienced. Most of these issues are either environmental or data related. With all that said our support department is working hard to address these unique situations and eager to help our customers resolve the problems.We truly appreciate your patience and cooperation.Irfan QaziVP Customer Support Services
AO Community – AO 2012 has major accounting issues that are being researched right now by the development team. In my opinion no on should upgrade until the source of the problem is discovered, understood and repaired. I have been out of commission for 10 days while tech support and the development team try and tackle this issue. This may only apply to my data but no invoicing and no transactions can be created without major errors. There are also a myriad of functionality issues in the new release as well. Don't expect to be working nearly as efficiently as in 2011. Plenty of new work-arounds to learn. Good Luck with whatever you do.
