I receive a lot of requests for bulk purchases of Office add ins. If your looking for more than a couple for your company, typically it is considerably less expensive to integrate a custom solution that you can use company wide without additional licensing.

For instance, a typical search and barcode macro for Word, including a dll licensing fee is under $230.00 (four hours of work) to develop. For that amount of money a custom solution can be developed that does exactly what you need, vs a purchase of 9 generic add ins, that are not custom created for your company. Best of all, you can distribute it within your company without additional licensing. You own the finish product.

Granted, larger projects (like direct Word / Database connections, for instance,) may take longer and cost more. However the savings on the part of the companies involved are tremendous, not only in the initial outlay of funds, but also in the time saved in automation. If your looking at bulk purchases, please contact me and let me know what your system set up is, and what your trying to do. While I will quote large purchases at large savings, chances are a direct, custom project will work better in the long run and be cheaper initially.
