In
the business office today, the computer is as common
as a desk or a phone. Many
try to use Excel, a spreadsheet software program, as
a database. The truth is
that this choice will only take
you so far and if you read the last
chapter in the Excel User Manual, Microsoft advises that if you
want or
need a true database, move past Excel
and choose MS Access.
Still the most used and popular database program worldwide.
FAQS: It will require a lot of time keying and re-keying. If you use and re-use basically the same layout of information but have to change items like the recipient's name, a database can do this for you. Enter the info once, and it can be re-cycled again and again. No extra typing. I will need to re-enter everything that's already in Excel. If you already have information in a spreadsheet, another database, or even Word, GS can often retrieve these records electronically. We may still need to have paper forms. Definitely. Paperwork like quotes can be generated faster and, if you wish, emailed to your Client saving mailing costs and allowing you to respond faster. Plus, inquiries from Clients can be answered faster because the information will be right at your fingertips. Not at all. A GS database is designed to be easy to learn and a breeze to use. Very little training is often required and you will also receive User Quick Notes, Tips & Tricks, plus help is always just an email or phone call away.
