Update on client exec -

Not to say anything bad about them - for what they do, it seemed like a very good and feature rich product, but it didn't exactly foot the bill for what I needed.

I have two types of invoices I send, recurring and one-off. The one-off invoice is for web design and there are a few standard packages that I have, but most of it is by the hour. So, I needed something that would allow me to invoice clients without a one size fits all approach and I needed something that would let customers log-in and then specify their credit card information directly, instead of me having to take it over the phone.

Well, CE didn't let customers log in and pay an invoice online where the credit card number wasn't already set up by you. But, I found a neat product that does really well called Netinvoicing. It has a few features that I'll never use, such as inventory and setting up warehouses, etc, but setting up was easy and I even customized the look of it for my needs. For 99 bucks you can get a licensed version and you can also download a free trial version. I am not endorsing them because it is the greatest software out there - i'm sure that there are probably better ones, but this was a fast set up, hooked up to authorize.net well and is already up and running and bringing me in money. You may want to check it out if you have the same kind of need as I did.
