"We use Dashbook to track their author’s royalties. Although I have used many types of relational databases Dashbook is my first experience with a royalty database. Dashbook was easy to learn. It is well laid out and has an excellent help section that is very easy to navigate due to the thorough index. What has been especially valuable is the excellent customer service. While learning Dashbook whenever I had a question I simply emailed Greg and got an immediate response. A product is only as good as its customer service. If you can’t use the product effectively due to poor customer service it doesn’t matter if that product is great if you can’t figure out how to use it! With Dashbook we have been able to accurately calculate their author’s royalties. The report section of Dashbook is very complete and user friendly. We have been very satisfied with Dashbook and their customer service."
"I've found that one of the most challenging and time-consuming aspects of running a publishing company is tracking sales and managing royalty payments -- particularly when those sales are being made in multiple currencies and coming from various sales channels. I have tested several far more expensive packages, but I am not aware of any other publishing software that can do what DashBook can. The ability to import monthly print-on-demand sales reports from companies such as Lightning Source has been especially helpful and saves me untold hours of re-entering sales information and doing currency conversions."
