Happy New Year! We hope you had a great Christmas break.
What an extraordinary year 2020 was.
Needless to say, New Zealand did quite well navigating through the COVID-19 pandemic compared to the rest of the world and we are optimistic the threat will decrease significantly with a vaccine being rolled out globally in 2021.
A positive side-effect of COVID-19 for Custom Software is that most of us now work from home one day a week, which has improved productivity.
We are excited about all the new developments Custom Software has planned for this year, for both Quickmap and our online website Prover (www.prover.co.nz).
Quickmap Enhancements

Did you know that you can check the date of the data you are running from the “Date of Property Data” option in the Quickmap “Help” menu?
You can also have your data updates installed automatically with our Data Download Manager. If you are interested, please contact us to set this up for you.
We have a lot of exciting enhancements lined up for 2021, and welcome any suggestions on how we can improve both Quickmap and Prover.
