FinSoft, LLC

Who We Are:
FinSoft is made up from employee-owners who are all computer junkies and range in skills from programmers, Asset Based Lending Auditors and a CPA. Experience ranges from computer programming from 15 to over 22 years, ABL audits since 1985 and the CPA thing since 1984. We do only ABL and our principal owners have the experience to focus on only ABL.

FinSoft people love what they do. We're more than computer junkies, we're a bit passionate about quality and perfection. We believe that our customers are our board of directors and the only bad idea is not listening to customers. We don't hide our software and our web page and demos are designed to give you valuable information (question those that hide). Our web support page for licensed users is state-of-the-art and has been applauded by computer industry insiders.

Why Build AssetWriter and AssetReader and ABL-Help?:
Joe Caplan has working exclusively in the ABL field exam and software development business since 1985 and has taught the #1 rated Intermediate / Advance ABL Audit Seminars since 1994 and the DATA Course since 2000. With a love of PC computing and some sophisticated spreadsheets, Mr. Caplan's exam formats and workpapers have been copied by many of the largest lending institutions and CPA firms.

In 1994, Mr. Caplan decided to start designing a full-blown field exam package that would remove spreadsheet and word processing formatting headaches. Using the existing models and studying the time wasting factors in preparing an examination, Mr. Caplan laid the blueprint for a stand-alone package.

In January of 1996, FinSoft, LLC was formed to turn the blueprint into a program. Donald B. Brookes was made a partner in the venture and his 10 years of programming experience with Westinghouse Electric and other consulting firms was in motion. FinSoft quickly tapped the brains of other senior software engineers with some members having over 20 years of experience, including the author of a best-selling Visual Basic programming book and one of the world's foremost experts at PDF decryption.

With over 500,000 lines of VB code and countless hours of testing, the dream is a reality. We added AssetReader in 1999 as an additional product for our customers that wished to log-onto AR agings and other reports. AssetReader was written entirely in VB-6 with no external parsing tools and it has quickly grown to displace long standing and hard to use tools with instant results and expert analysis.

The employee-owner concept guarantees support and response to questions. The ABL experience used to engineer these products shows insight and audit efficiency at its highest level. Finally, Mr. Caplan's training seminars and on-line tutorials provide a proven path toward fast adaptation. All of our systems have complet Help Files that are screen specific. Combined, these tools are turning ordinary exams that took days to complete into extraordinary analysis that takes only hours to complete.
