Suited my business for many years. > > **Cons**: Customer service was appalling. \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] spoke to me like I was an imbecile. When I asked him to stop doing it that he kept going and told me he had done a good job. I told him he spoke over me, did not listen to me, and that he was rude. I asked to speak to his manager and he said no. The issue was that I had paid for a subscription (new business model now prejudicial to long term loyal customers) and the software does not work on my Mac. He said well it's your fault you didn't read the website. I said I am a long term customer and I just wanted to keep the program going so paid it. I didn't read the website and when I looked at it later it did not advertise this limitation on the main page. If you pay the subscription unwittingly it will debit your card then you will not be able to operate the program, and you will not get a refund. They will also not direct you to ways you could have your Mac run windows to run the program "go to a computer expert". This company used to be great but have now lost any credibility. Do not, I repeat do not buy from them. They would get hundreds if not thousands of people being hoodwinked and are making money off them with no ability for redress. Shocking in this day and age when customer service is so vital. > > Good for some years then more recently appalling. ----- ### "Cashflow Manager Gold Always Has STP Issues" — 1.0/5 > **Michael** | *7 July 2023* | Primary/Secondary Education | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: Do not use this product. It does not work with Single Touch Payroll. I now have to go back and fix Cashflows multiple STP errors for end of financial year. Cashflow Manager Gold is a broken product. > > **Cons**: That's pretty simple, see the review I wrote. ----- ### "Cashflow Manager Review" — 4.0/5 > **Phoebe** | *21 November 2018* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: It works and has suited our small business needs since 2007 > > **Cons**: As on 2018 we have been forced to pay monthly for this system, we purchased it outright in 2007 however this year monthly fees were introduced. I have had issues with the system this past week and have not been able to resolve these with cashflow, I have been on hold for long periods, cut off, not received requested call backs last Thurs, Monday , Tuesday and Wednesday, I needed to re-do our invoice layout as it was corrupted ? and when re-doing it was very glitchy, I ended up getting a tech person in on Wednesday to sort this out for me as I had had no assistance from cashflow. > > Untill 2018 I was happy with the service and product. Not now, I will explore other options. ----- ### "Cashflow Manager" — 2.0/5 > **Leonard** | *31 October 2019* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10 > > **Pros**: I liked the purchase outright, the spreadsheet type format. > > **Cons**: Problems correctly loading software, appalling customer service (at one stage non-existent), extortionist like cloud based programme. Other monthly subscriptions make it user friendly to correct a missed payment, not this one. It would not be surprising if their greed ultimately saw this software sold out to a bigger fish. > > The extortionisst nature of cloud based programs Cashflow manager have fully embraced. The way things are going if they owned a shoe shop and sold you a pair of shoes they would lock you out of your house and wardrobe if you didn't pay a monthly subscription to them to wear them. Cashflow Manager seemingly studied the cloud based models and targeted their own business program to make the most out of their customers they could. Initially a great program now screwed no thanks to the owner. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/273216/cashflow-manager?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/273216/cashflow-manager) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
