With our SaaS security upgrade complete, we’re ready to support you through the busy season. Thank you to all our clients for working with us through this. Some of our team and I have been on the ground in Australia where it’s inspiring to see how people are using our software to solve challenges and find new efficiencies. I’m constantly reminded how much innovation and hard work you all bring to this industry.

We’re growing with you
We’re always working to make our software better, whether that’s developing a function you’ve requested, responding to industry changes, or adding new features.
We know it can be hard to keep up with updates when you’re flat out running your business and already have a process that works. That’s why we make it simple to stay informed. Every ABCgrower release includes detailed release notes with links to the updated sections of the Help manual, and we highlight key enhancements by email.
Looking back at recent updates, there’s been plenty of progress, and there’s more on the way! Below are a couple of highlights of what’s in development. We’ll also be sharing a summary of this quarter’s major enhancements with our clients soon, so keep an eye on your inbox.
ABCgrower fresh features
Info-only records
We’re improving the way you record work offered but not taken, e.g. when someone is rostered on but is a no-show or takes unpaid sick leave. You’ll be able to record it as intra-day time (consistent with paid activities), streamlining your process.
Commission
You’ll be able to choose whether to include commission paid to contractors on the Block Cost Report to give you a true labour cost. And you’ll also be able to see the commission on the Pay Run reports.

Buy or build?
With some organisations’ software coming to end of life we’re hearing them ask should we buy an off-the-shelf solution or build our own in-house? Both paths have pros and cons, and we explore the key factors to consider in our latest blog.
Real stories, real results
“The system is easy to use. We have people who don’t like tech and people where English is a second language, and it’s no problem.“
