Remember that a manual is very useful, but it's no substitute for good contact with a real person! At Charitylog we don't just want to sell software; we want to make sure that you get the best use possible from it, so please give us a call if you need to. We are always happy to provide extra training days if required - one of our skilled trainers can visit your office and run through anything you need to, one-on-one.
We grow our business by referrals. If you use Charitylog and like it, please don't keep us to yourself!
