| Source: MARKETCIRCLE INC.
TORONTO--(Marketwire - September 18, 2008) - Marketcircle Inc.'s release of Billings 3 makes the
activity of time tracking and invoicing a more productive, enjoyable
experience than ever before. Billings 3 offers major new features that
complement its "five minutes to your first professional invoice" promise.
Key features in Billings 3 include:
A streamlined and polished interface. Following in the footsteps of the
award-winning Billings 2.5, Billings 3 steps forward with a clean and
modern interface. Convenient features such as client groups and the
chronological accounts view with inline preview help to streamline
day-to-day workflow.
30 professionally designed templates. In any business, a polished image is
important. Billings 3 comes with over 30 professional templates (18 new)
enabling users to send high quality PDF invoices, estimates and statements
in just a few clicks.
Instant overdue invoice notification. Getting paid promptly is a top
priority for any business owner. Billings 3 immediately notifies users of
overdue invoices with a red icon next to the client's name. Users can then
click on the overdue amount to send an instant overdue invoice statement as
a gentle reminder.
Consolidated and recurring invoices. Invoicing has to be flexible to meet
various client needs. With Billings 3, users can consolidate and send
invoices for multiple projects or send recurring invoices. Invoice items
can be easily re-arranged and users can choose to send Pro Forma invoices
for approval prior to sending the final invoice.
Easy tracking of time and expenses. Billings lets users easily track time
using a convenient menu-bar timer available from any application.
Additionally, users can start and stop the timer using global hot-keys.
Each time entry can be annotated using a convenient button on the floating
timers window.
30 business reports. Reports are critical to accessing the health of a
business and Billings 3 has 30 of them (17 new). Convenient reports such as
"billed and collected," "unpaid invoices," "expenses tax report," "retainer
balances," "activity by client" and more are just a click or two away.
"Marketcircle's challenge with Billings 3 was to create a new product that
would surpass the popularity of Billings 2.5. In 2007, Billings won
Macworld Magazine's Editors' Choice (Eddy) award and MacUser's Best
Business Software of the Year award," says Alykhan Jetha, Marketcircle CEO.
"Our customers have made Billings a tremendous success. With Billings 3,
we've improved upon our time tracking and invoicing experience in countless
ways to make this version even better."
