    Features to look for when shopping for a Shop Management Software System

    Feature # 11 – First Class Spell and Grammar Check

    Almost everyone using newer office software is aware of the sophistication level of the spelling and grammar checkers today. Unfortunately many versions used in shop management systems are either very weak or very old (or both), and often clunky to use. So, few people use them – and when they do use them many errors are still missed. Result – we look like knuckle dragging grease monkeys. Insist on comprehensive and up to date spell check AND grammar check (what your newer employees used in school). Wear, where, ware and all spelled correctly, but they are certainly not interchangeable.

    “Wear, where, ware and all spelled correctly, but they are certainly not interchangeable. “


    A good example of why a spell checker doesn’t cover all the bases. A grammar checker would have insisted the “and” is “are”. 🙂

    However, a spell checker is certainly better than nothing.. but like any tool, it’s getting folks to use it. 

    Now, off to find a good grammar checker. Thanks for the tip.
