| | WellMagic compared to accounting software
|
WellMagic was designed to pick up where most accounting packages leave
off. Good accounting software is essential for a well-run business
but it is not enough by itself. Over-the-Counter accounting software
commonly used in the ground water industry was designed for any
business. As such it cannot begin to compare with a system set up
specifically for your industry. Take a look at this comparison of
features between WellMagic and QuickBooks to see what you are missing
without WellMagic.

While it is true there is some overlap between the two programs, it is not
necessary to do redundant record keeping. It is best to track the business
in WellMagic, including the billing and inventory management, and let your
accounting system do things it is best at: payroll, accounts payable, taxes, and
other accounting functions.
