Ok, im sure many of you have dragged yourself up to date with the present technology.

I found a really good app on my ipad for pricing and thought i would share the apps i use

Invoice2go: I use this to invoice clients and store all details, i can invoice via email the very moment i complete my work via email. Its really simple too.

Business quotes: this is a really simple way to write a quote add your logo and email or print. My nan could use it.... (her work would be crap)

Planimeter: this app is really handy, i lost my measurements on a recent quote, i remeber thinking the patio was 66m in size, didnt want to look foolish and go back so you can use this app to measure anything anywhere from your home... Found the clients property on the maps, dropped pins around the patio and hey presto 65sqm it is fantastic, imagine getting a call for work and having the measurements before you turn up. Well worth having

Any one else got any good apps for work?

Evernote

Great for note taking - syncs between PC/Mac and most mobile devices. And it's FREE too.
