My name is Raewyn Whisker and I work for a company called
Accomplish. We have an accessible accounting package called
CashManager that works well with Window-Eyes and other major screen
readers.
What I would like to ask is why would you continue to work with - or
communicate with a product or company that is not listening to
you? You have alternatives, we do and have listened to our client
base. We have a business version, a not for profit version and a
home version available and accessible for the USA, UK, Australian
and the New Zealand Market.
We have worked with individuals and organisations regarding the
accessiblility of our product. To name some - NFB, ACB, RNIB,
Vision Australia and RNZFB.
We are now starting to work with screen reading companies like GW
Micro to ensure we get things as easy to use as possible.
Our product has been around since 1992, and is well proven for ease
of use and functionality. We have been working on the accessiblity
of the product since 2006 when it was first bought to our attention
that it was accessible. The person who bought this to our attention
is a Window-Eyes user! Since then we have worked on making the
product 100% keyboard use, we have a 'special code' that changes any
'images' to 'check/uncheck' so anyone using a screen reader can
easily understand what is happening, plus other things like labels
and dialogue boxes being readable.
We know we are not 100% perfect, but then what program is? We have
done what we have done because we listen to our clients. Please
have a look at our product on
<http://www.accomplishglobal.com>www.accomplishglobal.com. You can
download a trial version and have a play. You can email me and I
will answer your questions. We cannot provide everything to
everyone, but if it will benefit our users across the board, and we
can do it - we will.
There will always be companies out there that care, and those that
don't. Way waste your valuable time on those companies that don't
care, when you could work with companies that are really trying to
make a difference, please give us a shot. If you don't like our
product, come back to me and tell me why! If you don't tell us, we
will never know and therefore cannot make any changes.
Please help us help you!

Subject: Re: Quicken 2010
AT the risk of sounding like a truly broken record, let me briefly
grab your attentions once again. Thank you so much to all who
honored my request and sent message to Mark at Intuit. However, such
accessibility issues raised by Pat could be addressed effectively if
we bring our voices together. Like the accessibility challenge I
recently raised regarding TurboTax, the same point can be
emphatically stated about Quicken or QuickBooks. My company uses
QuickBooks. But because of accessibility issues, I am at the mercy
of my colleagues working under my supervision. Some of us seem to be
less moved by such issues unless it is something we personally
need. There are individual needs an preferences. But then again,
there is a world of marketplace ideas which requires a more conserted
action than an individual voice. Let us flood Intuit with
accessibility requests regarding all of its products whether or not
it is relevant to individual use.
Can we? What would it take to convince fellow blind and visually
impaired persons to reach beyond individual interest and make a
collective, sensible, and audible noise?
Best regards
Solomon.
