PagerPro® is the software package that burst onto the paging industry scene in 1992 and revolutionized accounting for pager companies. PagerPro® is a complete accounts receivables program that does much more than any simple billing package. PagerPro® handles all the billing for a pager company or telephone answering service with ease that is unmatched. Everything you need is at your fingertips, from an easy to understand menu to complete documentation within the program.
Gone are the days of keeping handwritten accounts receivable ledgers; gone are the days of handwritten statements to customers; and if your company is computerized, gone are the days of software that is hard to learn and does not fit your needs. These problems are no longer problems with PagerPro®. PagerPro® does what other programs cannot. For instance, can your package handle multiple billing cycles? PagerPro® can. Can your package charge for overcalls? PagerPro® can. Can your package page delinquent accounts automatically? PagerPro® can.

John Warren, President of Warren Communications, cited PagerPro® as "the industry standard". Warren Communications is over 20,000 pagers strong and still growing. According to Warren, PagerPro® has taken a huge burden off their monthly billing routine. "We used to do everything by hand, which would take about 5 to 7 days. Now, everything is done in a day. It’s efficient, powerful and it makes my job much easier. Every pager company should take a look at PagerPro®." Warren Communications has been using PagerPro® for over 3 years.
Eric Douglas, Comptroller for Rapid Communications in Englewood, Colorado said, "of all the 20 demos that I evaluated, I only found two that I was willing to consider. One was yours, and the other was over $3000." On the support he received from CSI Softworx, Douglas said the he has "always received friendly and prompt technical support."
Cliff McGlamry from Robin Hood Telecommunications also had only praise for the support he received from CSI Softworx. McGlamry said "I really appreciate your patience with what I’m sure seemed to you like a lot of stupid questions. I never pretended to be a programmer, and it sure was nice to be able to talk to a programmer who could talk to me in language I could understand."
Quotations are taken from actual letters submitted to CSI Softworx. Letters are on file at the CSI Softworx main office.
