Business software for progress assessment
#1
I wanted to know if you could recommend any business software for assessing the progress of the company. Are there any? I guess there should, because Business software are an important part of any business activity. Translators are lucky to benefit of software which makes half of the job by translating entire pages. Accountants in small companies have no work to do, because business software do their job after they make the click. So what I'm looking for is a kind of software which calculates the progress of the company after certain mathematical-economic formulae.

Useful business software? None! My experience is that often software creates problems and cannot replace a person. :haha

The problem is that managers think that computers are a solution to all their problems, but they are just a tool. They can be a helpful tool, but they are not magic ;-)

For example, I have seen companies try to replace secretaries by giving all office workers a computer. The result is that paperwork takes longer, stresses the worker (who has to do the work of a secretary instead of their own work, whilst being paid more than the secretary was) and letters and reports are full of spelling, grammar and formatting errors that the software failed to identify (or in some cases, "corrected" incorrectly - Microsoft Office often does this!)

The situation is particulary dangerous in science: a young and inexperienced employee will often rely on the computer without carrying out simple hand calculations. An old mentor of mine used to get young employees to solve a problem: they would invariably model it on a high-powered computer with some software that costs around £10000 for a license, taking several days. He would then compare it to his own calculation, which took under an hour on a single sheet of paper! :haha The computer model sometimes gave a silly answer, but sometimes it gave an answer that looked believable but was missing an important parameter.

The computer is useful for performing lots of boring calculations that could take a person years... But they should always checked, otherwise a huge amount of time and money can be wasted.

Software for your business you can buy on the internet. I found a site where you can do this, I hope it will suit you <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.drpusoftware.com/">http://www.drpusoftware.com/</a><!-- m -->. But you should look for it yourself, just google, it is not so difficult.
