Hellooo,

I am still new in this business but would love a simple tool to keep me organised. Is cake boss a worthy investment?

Hi,  i would also like to hear comments about this software.  It seems like there are so many questions about pricing on CC. I am surprised that this software is not mentioned very often.

ACake Boss hasn't been updated in a while so it won't work well with mobile devices. Depending on what you're looking for, you might be better off with something like QuickBooks to run your day-to-day business and creating pricing worksheets in a spreadsheet program like Excel.

I have had it for about a month. It does a great job of keeping me organized and knowing my profits and expenses.  It's really easy to use.  It does fall short in some regards so I hope they do an update soon to incorporate the things that it falls short on.  Bang for the buck tho I think its what I needed.

I am so looking forward to an updated version. Kelly is probably too busy with the TX legislative session to update for now but sending prayers up for some new and updated features. I would still recommend the current version though. I love CakeBoss.

I have Cake Boss Software and I love it.  It keeps everything organized.  Makes pricing easier.  I recommend it.  It takes a bit to input all your info, but then you are off and running.  I never have to worry about under pricing.  It was definitely worth the price.

Oh and by the way, is it easily transferrable from one computer to another should I change my PC?

Thanks again!
