Tim,
 
Actually...no.  What you see on the Ezijobz site is what you rae going to get this summer with a few additions such as multi-currency and integrated native payroll processing.
 
If you are truly a make-to-stock, sell from stock shop, then you can still use Ezijobz, but it won't be as purely fit to your likely comfort zone as what DBA is today.
 
Of course, if you find that Ezijobz is NOT what you want, but you want some improvements from your current state you can either:
  • Go to Evolution
  • Move to another product.

I am really torn - I see some serious advantages to Ezijobz but am reluctant to migrate because of the time-learning curve.  I am the office manager and responsible for learning new software - Have had DBA for 2.5 years and just really liking it, limitations and all.  I can identify with the earlier "lynch mob" comment.  Most of the folks I work with use computers only because they have no other choice.  They don't enjoy them at all.  Can anyone indicate just how much data will migrate? I will not go thru all that cold entry again if I can help it- that is awful.  I too want a copy that I can play with.  We are a manufacturing company that builds to order with some special equipment building and some standard - We stock very little.  Need to actually see how it will fit our needs.

We have paid for a lifetime license with DBA , I dont see any reasons for us to switch to a new system. If we were going to it would probably be with a totally new software company.  Wink

kkcables,
 
Well if you do ever want to look at a new software, I am a VAR for another very nice product line from Epicor Software and could make some suggestions on which way to go and could also set up some preferred pricing through a VAR close to you.

I doubt that ezjobs will get many of us until it duplicates all current functionality.   I for one won't change if I have to give up integrated GL and payroll.
 
Nifty new things are always nice, but only if they actually replace what you currently have with something better.

Jeanette,
 
According to Mike, Ezijobz will have an integrated payroll this year.
 
And it already does have an integrated GL.  Apparently with the capability to even have up to 3 COA's for one company and a map that translates the postings across those 3 different GL's so that you can have one GL for internal use and operational reportability, another that is structured more simply for submission to the bank, and yet another for your CPA that is set up in whatever wierd way they like to have it for tax purposes.

I, for one, am seriously looking at Ezijobz, mainly because DBA features and options does not have the functionality I need. Our options are incorporated at lower levels in the BOM and Sales orders does not slot them in the proper level BOM. Although this improvement has been discussed by DBA and other programmers, I have never seen a final offering. I think Lynn has done an outstanding job, but this ability is core to our company. All our attempts to bring DBA fully online with manufacturing (in spite of my F&O issues) have been halted pending this evaluation of Ezijobz. Believe me, I feel much more comfortable with Lynn, the other DBA programmers and the service we get through forums like this. Her communications have always been welcome. Most of the time they are the only "sound" heard in the vacuum of DBA silence. Shoot, Ezijobs website hasn't even hardly changed or been added to for months. The top headline news is still from May. (Gee, did I just talk myself out of Ezijobs!!!???)

Steve -
 
We have made some headway into inserting the F&O Components into the appropriate lower BOM levels, have you looked at it recently?  Call me if you would like to discuss whar functionality you still need that it doesn't yet have.   866-516-3282

Roll Eyes Does anyone else find it interesting that the EziJobz site was "Completely revamped" just 2 days after the previous mention of the staleness of their site.
 
 Wink Coincidence?

Actually I had talked to Mike about 3-4 weeks ago and he indicated that they were in the process of creating the new site....
 
So, I guess it truly was coincidence....

I think I would definitely think about switching to EZIJOBZ if they come up with a Data Collection module. But until that happens I'm stuck with DBA. Thats the only contraint I can see.  
One other issue is when the EZIJOBS is going to be available to DBA users? They say this summer but the summer is now 2/3 gone and no EZIJOBZ yet. I heard promises 3 years ago on the release of DBA-SQL but that never happened so I'm kind of Skeptical.

When was that newsletter? Oh yea - July. It seems odd that I was getting tons of emails about the wonders of EziJobz all the way up until it was supposed to be available. Then...silence........
 
I'm starting to get that "Haven't I been here before?" feeling.  undecided

You should see what it is like from a consultant's point of view!
 
Would be nice to actually get some traction with this thing....but even I dont have the bloody software yet.

??? We are going to install Ezijobz & get a feel for how it works before we take the plung.  Not sure where we'll go at this point & time.  We just got the CD to install.  Time will tell.  By the 1st CD not letting all the information flow from DBA to Ezijobz isn't a good thing.  I see posts where others have only been able to get customers, vendors, and inventory items into Ezijobz...so what happens in the time frame betw partial & fully transferred info....lost .... keep 2 systems running in parrell?[color=Purple][/color]
