Duane

Many congratulations. Now I have used your system for a couple of months, it is easy to see how you have reached these sorts of figures.

I’m looking forward to other developments taking place in the future.

Thanks Dobes. Yep, Xero posted those numbers - but that's not for the UK market. They don't say how many *paying customers* they have on the UK. See comments from Rod Drury (Xeros CEO) on my post "SaaS Adoption in the UK". For the record, I didn't put any names in the frame when I said on that piece about other companies not getting traction in the UK

Congratulations on passing 2,500. I believe Xero has also posted some numbers – 2,000 last August, but I’m not sure who else has given any numbers.

The growing customer base is no doubt down to your excellent customer service when it comes to help queries, regular updates to improve the software and meet the ever changing needs of UK business, as well as the ease of use for a non accountant.

Well done.

Thank you for going open with real figures. I hope this will be an inspiration to us all when entering new business models.

And about the shoe-horning: It is not only the code that needs to be rewritten from the ground up. The User Interface we use in accounting software today is a relique from the 1980:s. Today computers are on the Internet, standard real time communication protocols are in place, formats are emerging and there is really no reason why a digit that once is entered into a computer ever should be re-entered.
That will be very hard for the large actors of today to understand.
