ALMSys® Forms

ALMSys® Forms is an add-on module to ALMSys® that generates lease contracts and other related forms. ALMSys® Forms uses Microsoft® Word and Excel to produce high-quality documents which you may change to fit your business.


Features System Requirements

For the most part, the system requirements are the same as that for ALMSys®. In addition, you will need:
  • Microsoft® Word
  • Microsoft® Excel
  • Printer (laser recommended)
Security

ALMSys® Forms has its own security that is separate from that of ALMSys®.

Costs

You must have a licensed version of ALMSys®, with monthly maintenance paid up, in order to qualify for ALMSys® Forms. ALMSys® Forms licenses for $495.00 USD and has an annual prepaid maintenance fee of $250.00 USD.

The type of ALMSys® Forms license for which you qualify is based upon the type of ALMSys® license that you currently have: standalone or network.

Basic techinical assistance (non-hands-on) with the designing of forms is available at no charge. However, for ALMSys, Inc. to perform the tasks of form creation and/or form editing (hands-on), you will be billed at an hourly rate of $75.00 USD.

Training and telephone support are included in the license and annual maintenance fees.
