TIPS ON BUYING SOFTWARE
DO'S and DON'TS
DON'T BUY ON PRICE
Unfortunately, there is no corellation between price and quality of
software. Expensive software may or may not have features found or not
found in less expensive software. Decide how much you can afford, then
evaluate the software you can afford on it's own merits. Don't buy software because of
its purchase price. Look at what it will do for you and the long term costs.
DO EVALUATE THE SOFTWARE
Be sure to try a demo of the software before you purchase it. Only you know
if you can run the software and if it'll do all you want. Beware of slide
show demos that don't let you run the program. Don't let claims and fancy
brochures sway you. Insist on working demos so you can evaluate the
software. While you may be able to learn the software, you don't want to
spend days teaching new employees. Look for ease of use. Software is a tool
to make life easier and more productive. You're not purchasing software to
waste your time. DON'T BUY UNSEEN!
Our demo programs are the actual program with obvious limitations built in.
Unlike slide show demos where you cannot interact with the program, our
demos allow you to see exactly how the program works and how it works on
your printer. You should never have to purchase software unseen. Only you
know if you can run the software or if it will do what you want. Software is
a tool to make life easier and more productive. Don't buy sight unseen.
DO SEE HOW LONG THE SUPPLIER HAS BEEN IN BUSINESS
Software suppliers come and go like flies. While you can't be sure the
supplier will be around 10 years from now when you need him, the longer he's
been in business, the better the odds.
R*KOM has been in the software business since 1984.
DO READ THE FINE PRINT
Look for catches like: versions, maintenance fees, tech support charges,
upgrade options, forms costs, networking charges, etc. Read the warrantee.
R*KOM warrantee
Be sure your computer and printer are compatible. Ask questions! Be sure you
know what you are buying.
R*KOM offers only the latest version of our software. There are no
maintenance fees. Upgrades and fixes are free on the internet. The latest
upgrade features can be found on the internet at any time at
http://www.rkom.com/support.htm
Where networking options are available in our programs, there are no extra
charges - just go to the setup options where you can select
"Networking feature on!". While all our programs will run on a network, only
the invoice writer and inventory management programs can be used on more
than one station at a time.
We have never charged for or limited tech support. You can reach us
by email anyday including most evenings, weekends and holidays.
All our programs print on plain paper. Some can be printed on purchased
forms (in the instructions for the program).
DON'T LET THE MONEY BACK GUARANTEE FOOL YOU
Ask for names and telephone numbers of some customers who got their money
returned. See how easy it was to get the refund. Evaluate the software
before you part with your hard earned cash. Do not buy software you haven't
tried just because of a money back guarantee.
We offer free working demos so you can evaluate our software before
purchase. Because software can be copied, all sales are final. We do not
inflate our prices to cover the cost of software theft.
