The video features four gas‑engineer business owners (Speakers A‑D) describing how switching from pen‑and‑paper to the Gas Engineer Software transformed their operations. Speaker A highlights an eight‑year journey from a solo van‑based engineer to a six‑person team, noting massive time savings and reclaimed evenings. Speaker B emphasizes the software’s day‑to‑day utility, especially the integrated calendar and automatic job‑sheet generation that is sent directly to customers after a visit. Speaker C points out the financial upside: a subscription costs less than the cumulative expense of paper, ink, and printing, making the service a "no‑brainer" with no reported issues. Speaker D praises the system’s speed, ease of use, and all‑in‑one capabilities—scheduling, invoicing, quoting—and its mobile accessibility, allowing data entry on a tablet in the showroom without risking lost information. All speakers conclude that the software’s price‑point and feature set make it indispensable for gas‑engineer businesses.

Chapters

I've been using Gas Engineer Software for over 8 years. Firstly, when I was as an individual, as a man in a van, as to say, and now as a business with 6 engineers. Before Gas Engineer Software, we was using the old-fashioned pen and paper. We had a lot of paperwork all over the place as well as filing cabinets, but we now use the Gas Engineer Software that really helps us and saves us a lot of time and also frees up our evenings.
The Gas Engineers software is obviously really helpful with the day-to-day running of the engineers' work. And just with all the details on there that they can access, it's quite helpful. We wouldn't be able to do without it, with especially the calendar side and just with them, with their creating of job sheets and that being sent directly to the customer after we visited the property.
I mean, if you would say, for instance, if you used to do it on paper, you'd probably pay more money in ink and paper than you would for a subscription at Gas Engineer Software. So it's a no-brainer. If you pay a fee and it saves you money and it's a good service, then it's worth every penny. I personally haven't had any problems with the service whatsoever.
It's always been quite quick, efficient, easy to use, easy to see a diary event, be able to invoice through it, be able to do quotes through it, and to basically be an all-round package, which in our industry is quite difficult to find. One of the other great things about Gas Engineers Software is that I can actually check out anything I want wherever I am. So whether I'm in the showroom with a customer and I've got my tablet in front of me, I can then enter their details. I don't have to go downstairs, run downstairs, get a computer, or even worse, write it down on a piece of paper and then lose that address. So right there and then it goes straight into the system and I know that customer is not going to get lost.
So when I was first looking for a software provider to use, Gas Engineers Software really stood out because I could see that it was something that was at the right price point for myself as a business.
I would recommend Gas Engineer Software to other businesses, as I have already done, to help them further their business.
