Hi and welcome to the forum!

I'm not a locksmith, but I did just google this, not sure if it is well known or if anyone else here who is a smith uses it:

I have developed hooks into their API in the past. Good people and if something doesn't exist you need they will work with you. They are geared toward service companies specifically, I have 6 customers who use this and love it.

This isn't an all in one but they do the service side pretty well and can hook 3rd party apps. The UI hasn't changed much over the last 8 years but the platform works.

I have a customer I am developing hooks for with this next week. I have been playing with a fully licensed demo for about 3 weeks and this is a good piece of software. The UI looks like a hipster bloodbath but the software is functional with a short learning curve.

I deal a fair amount in the software side and have had my hands on a bunch of this stuff, if you have something specific you have been looking at PM me and I will share some notes and gotchas. I can also reach out to customers and see how they feel about living in a specific software and have them share their thoughts. This is a pretty important decision for a new company and not something you want to have to do too many times.

I used ESC for years at a locksmith shop I worked for. Very good software, LOTS of features to make your life easier.
