Review:

PAGEultra has been available for thousands of users since 1982. It is a very convenient accounting software, because of its multiple functions. The functions that it has are sales invoicing, sales order processing, purchase order processing, job costing, multi-user, foreign currencies, product/stock/inventory file, ledgers, cashbook, management report, etc. 

Pros:

• User-friendly interface
• Almost every function for accounting
• Easy to use

Cons:

• Old style

Summary:

The most stand-out characteristic of this software is its various functions, which is more than 20 functions in relation to accounting. However, right now the program itself is unavailable, due to the malware problem that previous users have encountered. I think that if it is available for me to try, it will be a very convenient program to use because I do not have to use many programs at the same time, and I believe that it only takes this one program to get the work done.

Since 2009, Projectbubble has been a helpful companion for all those who are working on a business project, no matter what their professions are. Projectbubble is a web application that helps make your project management and collaborate on the project easy. The useful functions that this web application provide are calendar for your project planning, time tracking, invoicing, manage expenses, team collaboration, file sharing, discuss project with clients, etc. 

Pros:

• Reasonable price
• Many important functions for managing projects

• Data back-up frequently

Cons:

• Can’t work offline
• Security risk is higher than standalone computer

Summary:

Projectbubble has many easy-to-use functions that just make you want to get the work done! It is very easy to learn how to use – you can get start within minutes. Still, if you do not feel like trusting the website advertisement, there a 15-day trial for those who want to try it out. I think that this is relevant to use in my future career. I think it will help me to work more efficiently as a team on a project. In addition, it would prove to be a good, private environment to talk business with my client, as well.

Review:

MyBanco is a free open source software that help you and your bank to do Core banking, which normallyusually cost thousands of dollars, without having to spend even a cent. It provides a Remote Procedure Call (RPC) protocol that is easy to setup and use within minutes. MyBanco makes you work faster with the support of the installation of all size. With a one computer test system, it is capable of processing around 100 transactions per second, and with a 10 machines test system, it is can process up to 1500 transactions per second. In addition, it integrated the Cross Communication (XBank) which allows to send more messages between banks than any other system in the markets.

Pros:

• Fully free core banking software for not just now, but in the future as well
• Well documented open source software
• High quality source code
• Your data will be safe, because data will never be deleted
• Provides solution to be able scale well with new technology
• Cross Communication (XBank) can transfer the most number of messages between banks
• Every transaction is logged – you always know where the money go

Cons:

• Things can always go wrong with the data (for safety, always back-up)
• Any changes made has to be send to the author

Summary:

Normally, core banking application is very expensive – because it is an important application to use to distribute important information between banks to banks or from a branch to another branch. However, this seems to be a very reliable application because of its high quality source code that even passes the standard application. Even though, the installation is different from common application, it does provide a guide to install its latest version. Overall, you should give it a try. As for me, it, most definitely, is a must for my future job. Just because it is free, it does not mean that it cannot be as good as the one that cost you money.
