Quotation "auto-chase" feature coming soon. Big time-saver for your sales teams

We're putting the finishing touches onto our new quotation "auto-chase" feature in Alpha Tracker.  This will be a huge time-saver for sales teams wanting to follow up on open quotes without manually writing individual emails to each prospect.

Preview of our quotation auto-chase feature

You filter the list of open quotes to select the ones you want to follow up.  Once you have the list ready, you can select all or a selection and press the new "Chase" button.  This will give you a customisable email template before you click to send.  Each quotation will then be followed up with the emails copied into your Tracker Filer address.

Our beta-tester consultancies will be the first to see the feature and give us feedback. If you'd like a sneak preview, too, get in touch.

What a lovely goodbye from a long-standing Alpha Tracker user

One of our Alpha Tracker asbestos consultancies is winding up their surveying business because their lead surveyors are retiring.

We wish our client well in their retirement

We received this lovely email to thank us for our service:

"We would like to take this opportunity to thank the whole team at Start Software for your assistance in setting this system up for us, for fine tuning it to suit our needs and for the excellent support given throughout the 7 years we have been with you – I see our first payment to you was back in May’17!

It’s been a pleasure dealing with you all throughout this time, thank you."

We are truly blessed to have such lovely clients!

Milestone! 10,000th Alpha Tracker job booked in at Start Software

We use Alpha Tracker to run our own business.  Does that seem odd, considering most Alpha Tracker users are asbestos consultancies or water hygiene specialists and we are a software business?

You might be wondering why a software company like ours uses Alpha Tracker, a tool typically designed for asbestos consultancies, water hygiene specialists, and environmental consultants. The answer is simple: we believe in practising what we preach. By using Alpha Tracker ourselves, we're constantly on the lookout for new features and performance improvements. If something in Alpha Tracker bothers us, it's likely to bother you too, and this motivates us to fix it quickly!

Whenever a client requests a new feature or asks us to modify their asbestos report templates, for instance, we log that task as a project in our own instance of Alpha Tracker.  This method not only helps us track our work but also ensures that we experience the software just like our clients do.

We're excited to share that we've recently hit a significant milestone: the 10,000th project booked in Alpha Tracker! This achievement underscores our commitment to continuous improvement and our dedication to providing the best possible experience for our users.

We've recorded 10,000 jobs here at Start Software

Keep the feedback coming and we'll keep improving Alpha Tracker! Get in touch here.

PS the 10,000th job was from our friends at Hampshire Country Council... a box of chocolates is on its way to them!

Comments from our Alpha Tracker training sessions. Get in touch if you would like more training for your office or site staff

We've been (very!) busy over the last month with new Alpha Tracker installations - see here and here and here!  Whenever we implement a new Alpha Tracker asbestos software system for an asbestos consultancy, we deliver training, either face-to-face or via Microsoft Teams/Zoom.

We can deliver training via Microsoft Teams/Zoom as well as face-to-face

Here are some of the recent comments we've received from clients:

"Training session was excellent. Kim was very clear and knowledgeable and we learnt how to use the forms easily"

 "Was a great training session, got lots out of it"

"I thought the training was excellent and entertaining enough to keep everyone's interest. I would definitely recommend your software and training to other companies"

"No issues need highlighting. Kim was very professional in answering questions, working through the stages on setup & usage and helped troubleshoot issues we had initially."

"Training was amazing, Judy was clear and answered all of our questions with ease and clarity."

Reviewing other post-training comments, some clients have asked for follow-up training, others would like us to improve Alpha Draw to add more features, and others have asked for more information on QR codes.  We take all feedback seriously and try to act upon it.

If you'd like to book some refresher training or extra training for your staff, get in touch.

701 calls taken in May by our Support Team. Steady month

Our fabulous support team took 701 calls from clients in May 2024.

We've been analysing the reasons why people have needed to speak to us.  The most common are:

• "data queries" - questions about information within a system and how to process it (18%)
• "change requests" - callers asking for new software features or changes to existing ones (6%)
• "technical/server support" - clients calling us because they don't have their own IT support (5%). 

Most calls turn into "tickets", our means to track issues.  Overall, we solved 94% of high-priority tickets within 2 hours - a good result.

We blog every month to show the performance of our support desk because we want to be completely transparent and open with our clients and prospective customers.  Hope this information is useful!

Lovely surprise! Adventurer Andrew Bedwell drops into our Telford office for a cup of tea

Remember the incredible Andrew Bedwell and his World Record "Big C Challenge" attempt at crossing the Atlantic in the shortest boat ever?  Start Software/Alpha Tracker were key sponsors and we also built an app for Andrew to use on the crossing.

Andrew in our Telford office

Andrew is working towards another crossing attempt in 2025 and just dropped in to see us and let us know how his plans are progressing.  With a new all-aluminium boat design (which is 6cm longer internally - positively spacious!) and even better preparation, we're sure attempt #2 will be successful.

We're training 3 (three!) asbestos consultancies during the next 7 days to enable them to switch to our asbestos software Alpha Tracker.

Three new asbestos consultancies will be online next week

Remember when your diary was just a little black book in your pocket?  Now most people have multiple calendars for home, for work, for clubs... and it is complicated to look across all of these at the same time.

Alpha Tracker's diary can link to Google, Outlook and Microsoft Teams so you can see all your work appointments with your other commitments.

Having multiple diaries is complicated!

Three more UK consultancies with asbestos and Legionella focus are joining the Alpha Tracker family. It's going to be a busy summer...!

We've received orders this week from three more UK asbestos and water hygiene consultancies, all wanting to switch to Alpha Tracker and away from their current software providers.  

All these ambitious consultancies have decided to make the move because of our 24x7 personal support and our flexible and open approach.  Our motto "this is your data, in our system" is what asbestos and water consultancies want to hear.  Why be locked into a system where you don't have unlimited, open and flexible access to the data critical to your business success when you can switch to Alpha Tracker and experience a completely different approach?

See our flexible integration options at alpha-tracker.co.uk/integrations

We've been in business for 18 years and some of our first asbestos consultancy customers are still working alongside us.  Each year we've grown and we're now trading more successfully than ever with more staff, more clients and more ideas for improvement.

Would you like to join the Alpha Tracker family or try our software for free?  Get in touch!

Mark & Todd from OERCA are at the Regional Aquatics Workshop Conference showing our latest software improvements

OERCA is one of our favourite clients.  They are leaders in their field (aquatic animal care software - think aquariums, sealife centres and such) and we love working with them.

Mark & Todd, the directors, are at an Aquatics Workshop this week showing the latest software improvements - and there are many!

Mark & Todd at their conference desk

OERCA is one of the products we build and support using the Alpha Anywhere development platform.  It enables us to deliver feature-rich systems more quickly (and hence more cost-effectively) than traditional programming methods.

Can we help your business with a custom software development project?  Or perhaps you need help with an application written in Alpha Anywhere?  Get in touch!

Alpha Legal has been given a speed boost! Hope you're enjoying the difference

Alpha Legal has received a speed boost today after we deployed new servers in our private cloud.

ESSS are improving their processes with the help of Alpha Tracker. Can we help you, too?

ESSS - Environmental & Site Safety Solutions - are improving processes through their asbestos consultancy business and our Alpha Tracker specialists are helping them along their journey.

Welcome Lancashire County Scientific Services to the Alpha Tracker family!

Another Alpha Tracker asbestos consultancy is live.  This time it is Lancashire County Scientific Services!

Kim has spent the day training the asbestos surveyors and administrators

Lancashire County Scientific Services will be using asbestos software Alpha Tracker to survey buildings across the county for asbestos, analysing samples and producing asbestos reports for their internal and external customers.

Using a variety of handheld devices, asbestos surveyors will be capturing site data, taking photos and updating plans electronically, and then sending this over mobile data or WiFi - all with one click!  Once asbestos samples are analysed, reports will be produced automatically to match the current Lancashire County formats.  All asbestos reports in Alpha Tracker are created from custom templates to ensure that the output is perfect.

Can we help your asbestos consultancy to improve efficiency and the service you provide to your clients?  Get in touch!  We have demo slots available in May, and software trials are also available.  If you are switching from competitor systems, we can also offer healthy discounts during 2024.

There's an update to our Alpha Tracker Mobile app in the Google & Apple app stores

Jack has published an update to our Alpha Tracker Mobile app into the Google & Apple app stores.

Alpha Tracker Mobile in the app stores

The new version has several useability improvements for users of our Forms and Water Hygiene features, including:

• better display of the section name (for forms broken into multiple sections)
• improved display of the project/job, site and type of form
• the section/question is always displayed when responding to Water Hygiene questions.

These changes all came from suggestions from our users so do get in touch if you have other ideas for improvements!

Two more asbestos consultancies are switching to Alpha Tracker

Support tickets up 5% in March - but performance still good with 90% of calls being resolved within target time

Despite ticket volumes increasing by 5% in March 2024 compared to February, our Support Desk performance was still good with 90% of all problems being resolved within our target timescales.

Don't forget that we're here for you 24x7 in person to help you with any problems you have.  We're here to help!

Change coming soon for Alpha Legal subscribers using the Legacy software from CTT Group

If you are an Alpha Legal subscriber who also uses the Legacy software from CTT Group, you will have received an email from CTT explaining an upcoming improvement to the service being provided.

A change is coming in May!

Instead of requiring two subscriptions, one to Alpha Legal and another to CTT, from 1 May 2024 you will only need a Legacy subscription.  Your Alpha Legal direct debit will be cancelled and, instead, your Legacy subscription will be increased by the same amount so that you don't need to make two payments each month.

At the same time, any unused Alpha Legal credits will be transferred to the equivalent number of Legacy credits (or higher) so that you can still request ID from Legacy without needing to buy credits within your Alpha Legal subscription.

Finally, you will also notice that the Alpha Legal service for Legacy software users will be rebranded as Legacy Portal.  This change reflects the new Legacy Portal app and the close connection between our two companies.

Don't worry, there will no interruption in service.  Our two companies are working closely together to make the transition seamless for you.

If you are concerned, or have any questions, you can contact CTT Group's partnership team via partnershipteam@ctt-group.co.uk.  You can also call the Alpha Legal Help Desk on 0333 301 1010 or email help@alphalegal.co.uk.

Are you sending data to ATaC/NORAC for their annual asbestos report? We can help

Have you been asked to provide data for the ATaC/NORAC annual asbestos report?

We've created a free report for your Alpha Tracker asbestos system which will generate the data in the correct format for you to check and send on.

AIC Data Extract report is now available

Contact Jack if you want the report added to your system via 0333 301 1010 or support@start-software.com.

Join us tomorrow (28 March) for our first Alpha Tracker webinar in 2024!

Do you experience a slow-down in Alpha Tracker in the afternoon? We'd like to hear from you

We're trialling some software changes which will help if your Alpha Tracker system sometimes slows down as the day progresses.  

Experiencing slowdowns when you have your afternoon tea?  We want to hear from you

Please contact our Support Desks (UK or Aus/NZ) if you are experiencing this issue so that we can apply the change to your system.

The USA has banned the use of Chrysotile - finally

It's extraordinary to think that the USA has been so far behind other Western nations in banning the use of asbestos.  Finally, they seem to be catching up, and a ban on Chrysotile (so-called "white asbestos") has finally been announced.

An "Abestos Kills" protest on the streets of New York

It isn't quite that straightforward, of course.  Industries using asbestos will have 12 years to phase it out and, even then, there is a long list of exceptions to the ban.

We are yet to explore the US market with our asbestos software Alpha Tracker, but we have recently been contacted by American asbestos consultancies wanting to trial the system.

Jack is back! He's returned with mulch on his mind from Melbourne

Our Alpha Tracker product lead Jack is back in the UK from his trip to Melbourne.  He was working with our Australian director Judy at the FAMANZ conference in Melbourne, meeting asbestos consultancy clients old and new.

Whilst he was in Australia, the issue of asbestos in mulch was raised by several of our Sydney-based clients.  

Read about the story here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-australia-68302052

Almost unbelievably, asbestos has been found in the mulch around play equipment in a Sydney park.  The scare has kept thousands of school students at home and forced the cancellation of a major Mardi Gras party. There was also panic after potential exposure sites were identified - but quickly cleared - at the Sydney venue for Taylor Swift's Eras Tour concert.

Judy, Jess and Leanne in our Alpha Tracker Adelaide office will be working with our Sydney asbestos consultancy clients to ensure that our software is helping them to identify and manage asbestos in mulch.

We should all know the name Nellie Kershaw

Nellie Kershaw was the first person to die of asbestos-related disease - or at least the first person to have that cause officially recognised.  Nellie worked in an asbestos mill, spinning fibres into yarn, and was exposed daily to asbestos-containing fibres.  She was only 33 when she died, and we mark her death this week because that was exactly 100 years ago.

It is exactly 100 years since Nellie Kershaw died of asbestos-related disease

The inquest into Nellie's death led to the publication of the first Asbestos Industry Regulations, in 1931.  It seems extraordinary that the number of asbestos-related deaths is still increasing year-on-year - a reminder to us all of the importance of the work we do in the asbestos management industry.

Apologies for the brief system outage on Friday 8 March. All services were back to normal by 18:30

We had some issues with system speed and availability on the Alpha Legal site on Friday 8 March between 16:00 and 18:30.  We are sorry about these technical issues which affected some clients and the completion of ID requests.

We're sorry for the brief system outage

The issues were fully resolved on Friday and we have taken additional steps to increase system resilience.  If you have any concerns, or want to discuss this incident in more detail, do get in touch.

Start Software app "OnTimeCare" features as one of the "5 Great Apps"

Alpha Software has published a "5 Great Apps" video, and OnTimeCare, an Alpha Anywhere application built by Start Software for New York-based Patient Innovations has featured at position #2.
