What software do security companies use for billing?

Security and armed response companies need recurring monthly billing, collections and client records in one place. CRM Online bills each client automatically on a monthly plan, follows up arrears on WhatsApp and keeps contracts, site visits and tickets on the client’s record.

Can clients be billed automatically every month?

Yes. With the Subscriptions module each client is on a plan that bills monthly or yearly, and clients can choose card auto-debit.

Can I send suspension letters for arrears?

Yes. The Debt Collection module sends two-stage letters, from a pending-suspension notice to a final suspension letter, and keeps every step on the account.

Can I message all my clients at once?

Yes. WhatsApp broadcasts send a notice to all your clients, or to a list, in one go, from your own WhatsApp number (WhatsApp Connect module).

Can I use it on my phone?

Yes. CRM Online works in any browser on a phone, tablet or computer, and you can add it to your phone’s home screen like an app.

What does it cost?

Nothing for the first 30 days, and no card is needed. After that it is R575 per month for up to 5 staff. No VAT is added: CRM Online is not a VAT vendor at present. The Subscriptions module is free; other modules start from R20 a month, each free for 30 days.
