Forbes Computer Systems
Since we were first established in 1993 by David Forbes, we have been producing a range of taxation and other software, aimed at the accountancy and legal professions. All our software is written specifically for Windows and we continue to support Windows 3.x, 95, 98 and NT. In addition to this we produce software for use with the Windows CE platform.
Our taxation packages are developed by a team consisting of qualified software developers and accountants. The harmony of this multi-disciplinary team has resulted in our taxation packages being some of the most technically advanced on the market. We have designed all the packages to be simple, yet versatile to use. All our packages are updated and improved regularly. For this we listen to the suggestions of our users. This has resulted in taxation software that is quick to learn, yet encompasses advanced technology such as Electronic Lodgement.
We also remain dedicated to research and development. It is not our policy to let other people bear the brunt of research and development costs, whilst others reap the benefits later. We remain dedicated to the advancement of the Electronic Lodgement Service in order to meet the needs of our clients. We are also investing in the development of Windows CE software for hand held and palm PCs. This includes data capture software for our taxation packages and 'real-time' logging for our time- recording software.

Taxshield
Taxshield's Birth
Taxshield was founded in 1997 by Price Pearson Chartered Accountants, whom are based in the West Midlands. Astute Accountants within the Firm had noted that the software market within their industry was distinctly lacking in many areas. They took on the task of developing a suite of products that would make the taxation submissions process more accurate and efficient for users whom not only work as Accountants, but also throughout a broad spectrum of industries. The success of this idea meant ultimately that thousands of businesses from all sectors of the community would save considerable time (and therefore money) and be confident that their submissions were totally compliant with the ever changing government regulations.
The actuation of the Taxshield dream being realised, was down to the vast amount of tax knowledge found within Price Pearson, from both Partners and staff. Included within Price Pearson are two of the Tolley's Tax Books authors, who received accolades from both the Law Society and the Tax Advisor Magazine (amongst others) for their work, which included: Vatwise, Taxwise and Tax Guide. With such vast amounts of experience and practical knowledge in-house, Taxshield has been created with a dedicated attention to detail, whilst ensuring to simplify the process for users as much and where ever possible.
Support Service
Another area where Taxshield outshines many of its competitors is in the support they offer all users. Due to the designers of the software being current tax specialists and the software developers also being in-house - unique telephone support is available. Not only do our support team offer comprehensive knowledge of the software, but they also have an excellent understanding of the tax regulations and requirements that allow the software to work, hence offering a complete package to ensure the user is up and running correctly in no time. Once again, Taxshield understands the value of your time, and therefore ensures that your calls are answered immediately by real people, who find answers to your queries as efficiently as possible.
Quality
Taxshield prides itself in offering the highest quality tax software products to its users. Taxshield accepts nothing but the best when it comes to its products, striving for a high degree of accuracy by incorporating rigorous and continuous testing schedules for all of its software. Taxshield's Software Development team respond quickly to all adaptations required and has excellent turnaround times if problems do occur.
