Before switching to WorkGuru, Top Gear Rotorua used a costing system that did not provide sufficient updates over time and has since retired. As the business grew, the system's flaws became harder to ignore. Different tasks required workarounds that took too much time.

There was also a need for more flexibility in user roles. Team members often had to rely on the manager to place orders or check job statuses. Double-handling data, like copying product descriptions manually, only added to the inefficiencies.

For Top Gear Rotorua, it was clear: they needed a system that could keep up with their business.

Switching to WorkGuru wasn’t about finding new software for Top Gear Rotorua. It was about simplifying workflows and preparing for growth. Nicholas Sanderson from Thunder Cloud, a trusted WorkGuru partner, made the process easy. He moved their data from their old system and provided hands-on support. Nicholas also tailored the platform to fit their specific needs. "Nick made the transition so much easier. He was always there to answer our questions and make sure we felt confident with the system," Miriam Hewson shared.

Additionally, Miriam found the WorkGuru Support website invaluable during the onboarding process. Its clear, step-by-step guides and accessible resources empower her to answer her questions. 

WorkGuru's features simplify business operations and improve workflows. Key tools include creating and sending deposit invoices, customising job templates, and generating supplier orders. These tools have allowed her to save time and focus on optimising processes for the future. These new solutions have changed how the team tracks profit margins and manages projects. With real-time insights, it is easy to stay on top of tasks. Flexible invoicing options help Miriam keep things running smoothly and improve daily workflows.
