i know this is a old thread but just want to share my experience.....

Being a caseware user all my life i phoned to get my own software (as i was still using the previous auditing firm's software... i was still doing audits for them)..... +/- R16 000 for the first user and then +/- R4000 per additional user - yearly fee also +/-R4000.... now this is a lot of money just for sofware... then i tried draftworx and pastel auditor.....

i phoned draftworx for a demo cd, the cd was delivered the next day from gauteng... had a look through everything and i am really impressed with the software..... it is really good and it was only +/- R2600

Pastel auditor on the other hand..... still waiting for the demo it has been about a month ago.....

i really do like pastel accounting software but i'm really not going to phone them a second time for software and will rather go for draftworx....
