A Letter from the president
Training: the key to your success!
TOPS Software's programs are designed to be easy to
understand and use. Learning any new program, however, can overwhelm
new users. Training for new users is imperative to shorten the learning
curve and eliminate start-up mistakes. This is the reason we created
TOPS
University - to provide a resource for our customers' continuing
education needs.
TOPS University offers affordable Internet training classes designed
to give you a better working knowledge of our software. We recommend
all new users sign up for the three hour Orientation/Overview, which
walks through the TOPS v3.2.1™ Basic System. Customers who
prefer one-on-one training in their office or via the Internet,
can request a training
proposal from the TOPS University web site. We also have a network
of third party Dealers/Trainers around the country who offer excellent
on-site training at your offices. A list of third party Dealer/Trainers
can be found on our web site, www.topssoft.com,
under the Dealers & Trainers button.
If you're in a pinch, the TOPS Technical Support staff is there
to help by answering specific questions or handling a specific issue.
If you’ve accidentally double posted your monthly charges,
Technical Support can help. If you've posted an invoice for a wrong
amount, Technical Support can help. If your annual meeting is tonight
and you need to email the sign-in list to the on site property manager,
Technical Support can help. What Technical Support cannot do is
train your staff to use the software.They can, however, advise when
training is more appropriate for your particular situation, because
training isn't just for new users.
TOPS University offers Internet training classes for users of all
levels. Whether you need a refresher on functions that are done
infrequently, like budgeting and year end, or you've just purchased
a new module and need to get up and running quickly, TOPS University
offers courses
on all subjects for all users.
Getting the most out of your investment in TOPS Software is a mutual
responsibility involving both TOPS and you, our customer. We offer
the tools for a successful implementation of the TOPS Software suite
of programs; it's up to you to use them. Knowledge is power, so
get powerful—and profitable!
