I swear by DBs and tell everyone what a great system it is and more to the point, what a time saver it is....
Wyndham Décor has been operating in Shepparton in regional Victoria since the 1980s. I have been with the business for about 26 years and have recently become the proud owner. We sell all types of window coverings, soft furnishings and also offer concept design to our clients.
The previous owner purchased Drape and Blind Software so that we could get our quotes done quickly and out to the customer in a short time frame. I am old school and used to working things out myself and was skeptical and thought the new system would never work. I was not up to date with computers and felt like a nuisance asking questions all the time but with help from the DBs team and having a go myself I learned a lot of things.
Now, I swear by DBs and tell everyone what a great system it is and more to the point, what a time saver it is. One of the best things about DBs is that if my customer wants multiple quotes with different fabrics I only need to click one or two buttons instead of handwriting pages and pages of quotes.
I would highly recommend DBs to anyone in the window coverings industry, great program, fantastic training and support from Peter and Steven who are always happy to help.

Dillimores Furnishings is a sixty-year-old business in Waihi NZ that has a proud history of providing quality flooring, homewares, and window coverings to homeowners in the area. We are an agent for Luxaflex blinds and shutters and we also use soft furnishings fabrics from major suppliers like James Dunlop, Ken Bimler, and Warwick.
'DBS has improved our growing business’ efficiency and has given us the ability to automatically transfer order data directly to our MYOB accounting software and generate Excel Purchase Orders to email suppliers. This has revolutionized the way we do business and saved countless admin hours previously spent double entering data.
I have just finished a quote that normally would have taken me an hour to do and now with Drape and Blind Software, it's barely taken ten minutes! We've only had the system for a day and I can't believe it was this easy to get going.
With the DBs mobile module, quoting on-site has enabled me to win about 80% of my jobs before I leave. Back in the showroom, I get my administration person who has no background in window coverings to enter the window dimensions for house plan quotes. Previously these types of quotes simply did not get done and I lost out on jobs.
“DBs, has enabled us to streamline our entire production process from Quotation through to Manufacture. The ability to input information once saves us a great amount of time and reduces errors. Being a small business like most we are resource strapped so any efficiencies we can get using technology as an enabler for the business is great.
"DBs revolutionizes the quoting process for the drape and blind industry. It vastly reduces time spent and occasionally wasted on lengthy quotes and in particular, when clients make frequent changes to fabrics, style etc.
"The product has been sensational, it has saved us time and money. We wouldn't dare go back to the old ways. It has been a benefit to the business no doubt."
"Manor Blinds and Curtains have been using the Drape and Blind Software Quoting System for over 2 years and have found that it has greatly improved the accuracy and consistency of our quotes.
