Acclaim Legal Releases Solaria for Court Reporting Firm clients

Fort Collins, CO — April 3, 2006

Acclaim Legal Services, Inc. again responds to client input to further enhance their industry leading court reporting firm management software. Direct input from agency owners and office managers is compiled to predict the future needs of litigation support firms and their clients. This release of Acclaim Solaria is another example of that focus on our reporting firm users as their key requests for enhancements are included in another quarterly release.

Acclaim Legal Services, Inc. began in 2000 out of the dire need in the court reporting industry for cutting edge software built exclusively for the court reporting firm users and their clients. Historically the industry had outdated DOS software, poorly designed or supported software, or custom software built by a reporting firm and thrown into the market with little flexibility. Painful or infrequent upgrades, application instability, and difficult training or usability were all too common in the industry. Acclaim Legal started by working with the premier firms around the nation to understand what they liked about their current software and what they needed from new software. Each release of Solaria is a continual advancement in total office automation. Solaria has always had case centric information so you can easily schedule, bill, and research jobs by the job or case information. Drag and drop rescheduling, sticky note reminders, flexible product lists and pricing, and complete office work flow have made Solaria a hit.

Our success in meeting our clients’ needs is apparent in the results of a recent survey of clients. The respondents rated Acclaim Solaria higher than any other court reporting office management software they had used in stability, features, ease-of-use, and functionality.    On average the court reporting firm users said they saw an improvement of over 40% in the efficiencies of their calendar/scheduling team and over 30% improvement in their order production tracking and client billing teams. “Whether you are a one person office or an office of 50 users, this is a significant improvement in your efficiency and staff utilization… and ultimately your bottom line,” said Mr. Terry Etl, Acclaim Legal Services, Inc. President.

“Moving from our previous DOS-based solution (StenAccount) to Acclaim Legal’s solution was one of the best decisions we’ve made. As a busy court reporting firm, we needed a Windows-based business solution that was both easy-to-implement and easy-to-use. Not only did Acclaim Legal provide the best solution for our needs, but they support their product with excellent services. And while we can’t think of anything we’d change about their product, we also know that each new update will contain well designed, useful features that help us improve our business.” – Cleveland OH

PDS Revenues Doubled in 2007 Hosted HRMS Model Validated with Increased Sales

Blue Bell, PA — February 8, 2008

PDS, an award-winning developer of web-based human resource and payroll systems, today announced that it experienced significant growth in 2007 by doubling its revenues over 2006. Sales from the company’s hosted Vista HRMS (human resource management system) model grew from 30 percent of its licenses in 2006 to 55 percent in 2007.

“The fact that more than half of our sales last year were for our hosted solution really validates this approach,” said George Brady, vice president at PDS. “We believe that one size does not fit all. Under our model, we host our clients’ licensed software in a single-tenanted environment using a secure VPN point to point connection and our clients are able to configure our Vista solution to meet their own needs all without the need for in-house IT support.”

The subscription or rental model offered by SaaS (Software as a Service) vendors requires the user to conform, on the most part, to what those vendors refer to as ‘best practices.’ With the Vista hosting model, users achieve superior ROI as a result of paying a one-time license fee and a modest monthly hosting fee. “In most instances the savings over a rental model are achieved by the end of the second year — just about the time the original SaaS contract is up for renewal,” explained Brady.

Much of PDS’s success is a result of its recurring monthly revenue from its hosted solution. In 2007, this number grew 458 percent from 2006 recurring monthly revenue. PDS ended the year with a strong fourth quarter, adding new clients such as Davaco and Deep South Insurance (Dallas, Texas), Hospital Partners (Charlotte, N.C.), James City County (Williamsburg, Va.), Kongsberg (Milan, Tenn.) and Montecito Bank (Santa Barbara, Calif.).

The Right Certified Payroll Software Is A Worry Reducer

By: Al Bullington
Posted: Aug 14, 2009
Views: 166

Certified payroll software automates the record-keeping for certain federal construction projects.  If you look at the U. S. Department of Labor Form WH-347, it isn’t a complex form.  If a contractor works on certain federal and federally funded projects, completing this form is required.  The problem is the record keeping must be in a certain form and the wages and benefits must meet federal guidelines.  The record keeping is a barrier that keeps some companies from bidding on certain jobs.

What you have to do is submit a weekly record of all wages paid to employees during the preceding week.  The information must be submitted for each employee working on a project.  Then a company official must “certify” that the payroll is correct.  The wages and fringe benefits must meet the guidelines set forth by law.  So each employee must be paid a wage for his or her craft or trade that meets the requirements.  It’s the Davis-Bacon and related Acts that require the contractor or subcontractor to pay a wage and fringe benefit that’s at least equal to whatever rate has been set by the Department of Labor.

UK Payroll Services providing Relief from Payroll & Accounting Job

The form is submitted for a project each week.  Each employee working on that project for that week is identified.  Then the employee craft is listed.  The wage paid the worker and the breakdown of benefits paid is itemized.  Then the totals are shown of wages and benefits paid.  Then the payroll is signed by a company official.  That’s the “certified” part.  It’s certified to be actual amounts paid and accurate.

The form you fill out isn’t the problem.  The problem is keeping the records that contain the information that goes on the form.  Plus making sure the wages and benefits really do meet the required guidelines.  Specialized software is the way to keep all this information accurate and up-to-date.  Just make sure that whatever software you choose will work with other accounting software.  Otherwise you might get stuck having to enter some data twice and that’s no good.  For the major accounting programs like QuickBooks, most software will be compatible.  Make sure before you buy.

Also make sure you stay up-to-date on any changes in the requirements.  Those changes might include wage rate changes as well as fringe benefit changes too.  How does the software you consider get updates to reflect changes?  Also make sure you understand how the system handles revisions and corrections since there will be some of those too.  Finally, remember there are state requirements for payrolls too.  So the payroll software must also provide outputs that meet the varying state requirements also.

Accounting for payroll is often complex and always critical to business success.  The requirements for certified payrolls make record-keeping most important.  It isn’t that the certified payroll requirements are complex.  It’s mostly that the records just must be in the correct format and the payroll software must be compatible with the other accounting systems.  The right software simplifies payroll record-keeping and government compliance.

Why Think about Day Skipper Training

If you are lucky enough to have a boat, you’ll be keen to launch it and get out on the water as soon as possible. But it may be a mistake to do that if you don’t have the proper experience.
