Long hours of frustration led me on a quest to eliminate frustrations forever!

Author: Ian Hurst — Managing Director, Paymaster People Solutions

Throughout the lifespan of my business I have witnessed excellent growth. This growth continues. A particular aspect involving many hours of frustration though, led me on a quest to avoid my clients having to endure similar frustrating experiences. The frustration centered around the fact that I had too many independent software programmes to manage my company’s back-office administration needs.

Software for this, software for that — too many software programmes led to frustration!

Various back-office components of my business required a software solution: a separate accounting package for the business’ accounting needs, a standalone payroll programme to pay my employees, a software solution to monitor and track my employees’ time and attendance, a recruitment software solution for my hiring needs, …plus many additional bits and bobs like Excel spreadsheets, project management planners, team collaboration tools, …and the list goes on. In order to productively and efficiently manage my growing organisation’s back-office administration needs, all of these software solutions were collectively meant to provide me with important information that I needed . The frustration however was hair-raising because none of these software applications were cross-compatible. In plain and simple terms: none of these software programmes could “talk to each other”. Translate this into IT parlance: none of these computer software applications were seamlessly interfacing with each other.

For example, when capturing employee-data, I had to constantly input the same information into these standalone software applications. It seemed like the data-capturing process was never-ending! In addition (not to mention the exorbitant costs related to all of this) my frustrations were compounded with ceaseless software updates, licence purchases/renewals and hundreds of manually managed data-backups. In short: managing several standalone software programmes was beginning to drive me mad! Absolute frustration was the order of the day, every day.
