UPDATED: See notes below.
I need your help please.
This month at the Sydney Business & Technology User Group (SBTUG) we’re covering online accounting, bookkeeping, time tracking and invoicing systems for freelancers and small businesses. But I need some guidance from you:
First, which products should we cover? I’m thinking products like Saasu, Xero, Freshbooks and Zoho. Which others should we include? – ideally we have time for five or six in total. What tools do you use in your business?
UPDATE: A few other products that have been suggested including:
Shoeboxed, MinuteDock, BankLink, FreeAgent, MYOB Live Accounts
And second, who would you recommend we ask to present on them? I’m hoping to have Marc from Saasu along and I’ve just started reaching out to Xero via Twitter. Is there someone you know who uses these products who would be an ideal presenter? Would you be an ideal presenter…
UPDATE 2: Many thanks for your help getting tonight’s SBTUG together. We now have the final agenda up with Saasu, Xero, MYOB, Shoeboxed and Freshbooks sessions, along with a big panel session with all speakers. Here’s the agenda:

Saasu is the only 100% Aussie 100% Online offering that matches diretly up against MYOB premier so start with them. MYOB is still working on a full offering and xero doesn’t do half the things MYOB premier does offline yet.
Cheers, Pete.
Thanks Peter. Yes, we are definitely covering Saasu. It’ll be interesting to find out what attendees are currently using, and if it’s MYOB what version (eg Premier versus other verions). We’ll definitely be covering Xero as well – they seem to be really popular also.
