ACRS: Sole Distributors for ARGOS in the SADEC Region

If your firm provides professional services—legal, architecture, engineering, creative—you're likely already charging your clients for some reimbursable expenses—but if you're not including print, copy and telephone expenses, you're missing out on one of the most lucrative revenue sources available and ARGOS makes it super easy to assist you to increase your companies bottom line!
Maybe your printer or MFP came with its own free built-in accounting. Why not just use that?

Argos does things that built-in accounting doesn't:

Argos is different.

Most print tracking products are hard to use: they're annoying for employees, they're clunky to implement, and getting data from them is complicated. In the worst cases, they can break your printing or, worse, bring your network down. Argos is different.


Ready for the real world.


Argos is compatible with the latest technologies so you can implement Argos today without compromising your I.T. plans:

 

• 64-bit
• Windows 7 and Windows Vista
• Mac OS 10.6 Snow Leopard and 10.5 Leopard



Everyone is welcome.

We designed Argos with all the key players in mind: employees, I.T. staff, accountants, and equipment providers. The result: great workflow, easy deployment, powerful reporting. When you're ready to track more than just printing, Argos is ready with copy tracking and integration for dozens of third-party products.


In good company.

When you choose Argos, you're joining a growing list of companies around the world who rely on us to lower costs, and ultimately increase profit. But Argos isn't just about the  big guys; it works equally well in an office of three, or a global organization of 3,000.

Desktop Billing



The Argos Desktop Client makes cost recovery easy. Our emphasis on usability and speed make Argos intuitive for employees to bill their expenses not just quickly, but accurately. Argos reduces the headache of billing so your employees spend less time on popups and more time being productive.

Desktop Client Features

• Pops up after, not before, printing
• Snooze temporarily defers billing
• “Canned” comments
• Customizable status codes (e.g. reimbursable, non-reimbursable)

Workflow.

Unlike those other guys, Argos doesn't need to hold printing “hostage” in order to enforce. Instead, Argos allows printing to occur first, then only displays a mandatory popup after your print or copy job completes. The result is a more natural workflow, less frustration and happier employees.

Limits.

Reduce employee interruptions by setting limits. Limits allow employees to accumulate an administrator-defined number of print or copy jobs — up to a maximum job or time limit — before a mandatory popup appears.

Snooze.

Allow employees to temporarily dismiss the Desktop Client via the snooze feature. Administrators can set maximum snooze time.

Recents and favorites.

When you choose a billing code, chances are pretty good that you'll want to use it again. Argos automatically builds up a list of your most recently-used codes, then makes them easy to reach.

Multi-tier billing codes.

Argos 7 allows up to five tiers (e.g. project / phase / task or client / matter). A new drill-down feature search makes it easy to find the right value, even among thousands of billing codes.
