what our users say

“Another popular choice among independents is Focus … software was built from scratch around an accountancy package, and m. d.  Bonny Uba says that this can help smaller companies in particular to stay on top of their financial costs and budgets.”
Tom Holman, Bookseller 23rd February 2007:SOFTWARE SUPPLIERS: Seriously Systematic


"Focus on Publishing software was ideal for us as it's a total package with modules for marketing, accounts, production, royalties, sales order processing, stock management and distribution. We wanted a system that could fulfil all our needs and Focus is a powerful management tool that has proven to be efficient and user-friendly. The marketing search and reporting criteria are fantastic for targeting and monitoring direct mail campaigns and, as all the information is on one system, it is really easy to access and analyse sales information. The greatest asset of Focus is that Bonny and his team are part of the publishing industry so the system is specifically geared to publishing companies and to making our work easier. It also means that Focus is always one step ahead in new developments within the industry, which keeps us up-to-date with industry requirements such as ONIX and ISBN renumbering. Having relied on Sage Line100 in the past, Focus has been a breath of fresh air for our business!"
Su Underhill, Marketing Manager, Speechmark Publishing Ltd

“ After 5 years struggling with a succession of Sage products, which simply do not cater for the publishing world, we have been using Focus for three months and already it has transformed our business; we are experiencing significant enhancements to the way we process our orders and the way we keep track of our customers' interests and buying habits. I can't recommend it highly enough.”
Nick Oulton, Managing Director, Galore Park Publishing Ltd
