Jeff,
I would like to thank you and the staff of IDMS for the superb job you
have done for us. Your dedication to provide excellent customer service
is hard to find in organizations today. Never have I dealt with a company
that is so responsive to our needs and willing to go the extra step to
solve a problem. Your product is terrific, and we look forward to an extended
business relationship.
Thanks again for everything!

I am compelled
to write to you and let you know about the outstanding customer service
I have received from your organization. From my initial inquiry to the
technical support I received today from Jeff, I have been extremely impressed.
Every question I asked has been answered, and each associate I have spoken
to has provided me with excellent service.
I wish all of my vendors provided the level of support that your organization
has provided to me.
Many thanks!

Phenomenal Customer Support
Sirs:
I use the Account Ability program to file 1099-INTs for my small bank.
I began using your software last year. We also use QuickBooks and various
other software packages at the bank.
Your company provides the best customer support I have ever encountered.
The personnel are friendly, intelligent and helpful. Their patience rivals
that of Job. I have had occasion to call in twice each year with problems
which have arisen as a result of strangeness in my database program. This
is a Microsoft Access program which provides the data for your software.
Your support people have always taken the time to walk me through the
difficulties and help me isolate the issues. They give me enough to enable
the Access developer to solve the problem.
In addition, this year, I filed electronically for the first time. Your
staff spent almost 30 minutes helping me navigate the IRS Fire system
and making sure I got the forms filed. I had considerable difficulty logging
on, and the people who helped me at IDMS were never condescending, or
rude. It was a pleasure to deal with a real live person who knew what
he was doing. We both have Ph.D. degrees in math and it was nice to chat
while we waited for the upload to complete. What a pleasant person.
In sum, I feel I am taking unfair advantage of IDMS. I simply don't pay
enough for the wonderful service you provide. Your software is excellent
and your technical support is among the best I have ever encountered.
Given that Intuit charges me for the mere privilege of asking them why
their software has an internal error, I am eternally grateful to have
found a company that provides support at no charge. I am not encouraging
you to impose additional charges, but I felt you deserved praise for delivering
a top quality product with effective backup at a most reasonable price.
Please feel free to publish this if you wish. I hope people know it is
a bona fide letter.
Thanks again.

I cannot
begin to tell you how pleased I was with your 1099 program last year.
I tried many other programs and yours was the only one that could print
1099 forms on my Deskjet printer without losing a single piece of information.
Keep up the good work!
Looking forward to receiving the new version for 2002.

Our firm
has over 300 clients who rely heavily upon us for 1099 and 1098 preparation
each year. In the past we used another software product that would cost
over $500 each year to update. Am I glad I found you on the web. Not only
did we get our job done in a fraction of the time we used to spend but
we managed to save an addition $400 in software expense. One of your employees
named Jeff helped us with converting and importing all of our information
from the other software's database. I have to compliment him and IDMS
for the professional way in which the job was done.
My partners and I would like to thank IDMS and Jeff for facilitating what
used to be one of our most time consuming jobs each tax year. Keep up
the good work! We are looking forward to doing business again in 2001.

I just want to tell you folks what a pleasure it is to do business with
a company like yours. California Canning Peach Association is the oldest
existing agricultural bargaining unit in the world - not just our nation
- but the world. Our growers grow 85% of all the peaches, IN CANS, on
the store shelves. Our website: www.CalPeach.com
In years gone by, the job of issuing 1099s has been a huge undertaking.
Since I have been using AccountAbility, it has become a piece of cake!!!
In less than 1 hour, I installed the new version of your program, rolled
over my prior year client information, used the mapping utility, and
imported 539 1099-PATRs.
And I know that if I ever need help - all I have to do is email you
guys - and you are right there to help me.
Thanks for a great program and a well run company to do business with.
Sincerely,
Lee Tipton

I just
wanted to thank you for the changes you've made to the client management.
This is exactly what we needed! Never have I dealt with a company that
is so responsive. My client and my superiors are very impressed and pleased.
We will definitely be singing your praises to whomever we run across that
needs your services!
Thanks so much,

Hello...
...and thank you for your very quick responses to our calls and questions.
We operate a small contractor-based company and have been searching for
software that will accommodate our year-end tax needs. After many dead-end
searches and a software purchase from a local retailer, we believe that
we have found a company that offers a good product and the support that
a small company like ours requires. We do not have an IT department that
can troubleshoot and solve our problems for us. We do not want to depend
on an outside source for our accounting needs, which is what 90% of the
software programs for 1099's require. We operate this company on a daily
basis and prefer to have the responsibility rest on us, instead of a "payroll
service". We are in the process of downloading the 1999 version of Account
Ability to do a "dry run" so to speak, as per your suggestion. From all
of the communications to date with your company, we feel very confident
already that we have found the answer to our needs. The testimonials we
have read and the information that is on your website, which by the way,
has been backed up identically by your representatives on the phone, has
given us a good feeling about your product and your company. We hope to
be up and running with your software very soon and see the answer to our
year-end forms filing problems solved for good!
We will end this by telling you that your efforts have been greatly appreciated
by two people that depend on companies like yours to operate a successful
business of our own! Thank you again and we look forward to a great business
relationship between our companies.

Thank You!!
Common Cents processes Form 1099-MISC, -DIV, and -INT for our clients.
We had used the same program since 1992. This year their program would
not let us enter data for more than 90 recipients, and we started looking
for alternative programs.
Luckily, we found Account Ability!!
I want to take the opportunity to thank IDMS for the superb response to
my questions prior to purchase, as well as the wonderful support I received
in getting Account Ability set up for 2000 from Jeff.
He even helped me apply for a Transmitter ID so I can submit forms magnetically
to the IRS this year.
I am also thrilled with the product! It is easy to use, the reports are
very informative, and it is flexible, as well.
I know that my January will be less stressful thanks to Account Ability.

Just a
note to let you know your 1099 software was a pleasure to use. I waited
until the last minute this year (1999) and was determined not to spend
hours adjusting forms on a dot matrix printer. For the first time this
year, our 1099 forms were done by the end of the business day and I was
not in the office until 9:00 pm.
I searched for 1099 software on the web, found 4 products that appeared
to be what we needed, and downloaded demos of them all. Your product appeared
to be the most straightforward so we purchased it from your web site.
The product worked exactly as advertised. The import function made data
entry trivial. Because the software is well designed, operation was intuitive
and there was no need to consult help for anything.
I rarely have the opportunity to make comments like this, but, at less
than $100, your software represents such a good value that I felt it was
the right thing to do.
Best regards,

Dear IDMS:
First of all, I would like to thank you on behalf of Mar-Jac Poultry,
Inc. for your excellent Account Ability product. It is very user friendly,
powerful, feature filled, and it costs fractions of other comparable products
and/or services. Your mapping utility is also a tremendous tool allowing
easy drag and drop mapping: you really did an A-1 job on it and you made
our annual W2 and 1099 reporting much easier.
We here at Mar-Jac Poultry used to do our W-2’s and 1099’s in house using
a line/dot matrix printer respectively up until CY 1999. You can imagine
the types of problems we had with the processed volume (1,877 W-2’s and
208 1099’s for CY 2000) like paper jams, ribbon jams, unclear prints,
manually resending printouts ... etc. Ever since we started using Account
Ability last year (CY 2000), the only issue we have to deal with now is
importing our data into an ASCII file and mapping it to Account Ability
using your free A-1 mapping utility.
Thanks again,
Emad S. Hamid

Jeff (and
IDMS Inc Account Ability Support):
YES! Your fix works. It is a huge improvement in appearance and in efficient
data entry for someone like me who prefers upper and lower case.
THANK YOU for the immediate response via your phone call and then the
updated file via e-mail. Installation was flawless. It worked the first
time.
Your ability to listen and take my issue seriously set a wonderful tone
for me as a new user (or for that matter, even if I had been a repeat
user). Now that you have set the bar high, I will always have great expectations.
And, I can - and will - readily recommend your product.
THANKS AGAIN, JEFF. YOU MADE ME FEEL THAT I COUNT.

Just wanted
you to know how pleased I was with your product, and that I spread the
word to our user support group with the following email:
The City of Frederick, MD found a company in NY called IDMS for printing
W-2s and other tax forms. They have a software product called Account
Ability. This software prints all tax forms for any type of printer. We
will be purchasing blank 4-up W-2s this year because the software prints
the actual form when merging the data. The customer service team was very
knowledgeable of the AS400 system and gave hands on instructions and helped
me map our file to the program. I was very impressed and extremely pleased
with the quality of the W-2 output. Not to mention the time they have
saved me in trying to merge and line up the data myself. I would highly
recommend this product.

Dear Jeff:
I want to let you know how pleased I am with your service. I can not believe
the technical support I have received with my purchase. The handholding
in getting my 1099's filed was unbelievable.
Thank you again.

Dear Andi,
Just wanted to let you know that we were successful in doing all of our
1099s (we have 3 hours more time in a day) and only called Tech support
once.

First
let me say how much easier our end-of-year process has been since we started
using Account Ability. This is our second year, and your software has
received high marks from both our Payroll and Receipts & Disbursements
departments as they can now see and update W-2 and 1099-MISC information
directly without needing me to run reports. Plus I'm thrilled I no longer
need to make coding changes whenever the IRS modifies the forms as I had
to previously when we issued these statements on preprinted multi-part
stock. Thank you so much for such a fine product at such a reasonable
cost!

Jeff,
You were right in everything you said about the software - it was great!
The HELP function is easily understandable and I got all my 1099s and
W-2s completed!
You have a customer for life now!!

I purchased
Account Ability today and completed all my W2s (with some help from your
support staff). It's a great product for the price . . . in fact, unbeatable!
Even better, your technical support was quick and very helpful. That's
amazing in today's world.
Thanks for having it available.

I would
like to take this time to commend your organization on a great product
at a resonable price. I was stuck between a rock and a hard spot the
last 2 weeks of February when I realized my software (Peachtree) doesn't
support electronic filing of 1099s or W2s. I guess I knew this from
last year but chose to ignore it.
I spoke to your order desk on a Friday afternoon and was using your
software, with support, by 5:00pm Friday evening. Special thanks to
Joe on your support desk for helping me. He is knowlegable about your
product and understanding of my press for time.
Send me info on your 2005 product when the time comes.
Thanks again,

BRAVO!
I have been a Pension Actuary/TPA for 30 years and used at least 6 different
systems for 1099, etc. Yours is by far the best and quickest to learn.
I found nothing I didnt like.

Thanks
- Great Product!
I just wanted to take a minute to thank you for all of the assistance
you have provided since last August when we began testing AccountAbility.
Having completed our busy season of W-2 and 1099 processing, I can conclusively
say you have a great product, and my only regret is that we didn't discover
you earlier.
Thanks again and we're looking forward to working with you in the future
and to your new 941 and 940 products when released.

Just
wanted to say a quick thank you to the support folks at IDMS, particularly
Harvey and Jeff. I have to file my W2's electronically and, since I
only do this once a year, I never seem to remember from year to year
how to accomplish this. Your support staff is always very helpful, not
to mention patient, in getting my problems solved and everything set
up the way it should be. And they never even mention that a missing
link like me should probably never be allowed to get close to a computer!
Thanks again, guys.

Kudos
for Account Ability Software
I’m writing to let you know that this software has made a menial task
much more pleasant and efficient. Our school is required to file 1099-MISC
and 1098-T which we have done previously with paper forms. This software
has significantly reduced the effort necessary to process information
returns. Thanks for a great product that is well worth the price.

This is
the first time I have had to call in for tech support since buying Account
Ability software 2 years ago. I got someone on the phone right away
and they spent as much time as I needed to get everything working.
Thank you for your great help and keep up the good work!.

I loved the software
and utilized it for W2g's. Very easy to input and I actually transferred some of my
companies from other W2g software.
