It Worked for Years. It's Costing You Now
Desktop registers, server tools, and Excel kept firms running for decades — respect where due. But every manual re-entry is unbilled time, and every missed tareek is risk. Here's the honest math on staying versus moving.

KanunSoft vs Legacy Software
Nobody switches for fun. The table below states what a modern Nepali practice system guarantees, so you can judge whether your current setup still earns its keep.
| Capability | Legacy Software | KanunSoft |
|---|---|---|
| Access from court or home | Office-bound — desktop or server only | Cloud + mobile apps, anywhere |
| Tareek reminders | Manual diary — missed if nobody checks | Automatic SMS, email & WhatsApp reminders |
| Time capture | Reconstructed from memory at month-end | Logged at the moment of work, on any device |
| VAT invoices in NPR | Rebuilt in Excel or Word each time | One-click numbered invoices with 13% VAT |
| Trust reconciliation | Spreadsheet math, audited by hope | One-click three-way reconciliation |
| Data backup & security | Whoever remembers to copy the drive | Encrypted, backed up, with full audit trails |
| Cost of change | Zero license, hidden hours every week | NPR plans + free migration over a weekend |

Where KanunSoft is different
Where KanunSoft Pulls Ahead in Nepal
Four things KanunSoft puts in writing that a Nepali buyer usually has to ask a salesperson for.
NPR pricing, no forex surprise
Plans in rupees with no per-user dollar math — a solo advocate can start without finance approval.
Compliance stated plainly
BS calendars, VAT invoices, trust ledgers, and eTDS exports are native and named up front.
Reminders that reach court
Tareek alerts by SMS, email, and WhatsApp — because a reminder you don't see is not a reminder.
Migration without fear
Free guided import of clients, matters, documents, and billing history — most firms switch in a weekend.
The Problem
Switching Practice Software Is Where the Pain Actually Is
Feature lists are the easy part. What decides a switch is the migration itself — and almost none of it is about which platform has more modules.
- Moving mid-cycle means re-checking bills and retainers already issued
- Tareeks and myads get rebuilt by hand in a spreadsheet
- Matter data leaves the old system in one shape, the new one expects another
- The old system stays open for months because nobody trusts the new numbers yet
The KanunSoft Way
Move Over a Weekend
Ashad to Shrawan — or any quiet week — is the cleanest moment to switch. Start fresh with clean opening balances.
What you get on the way in
- Free onboarding imports clients, matters, documents, and billing history
- Run one billing cycle in parallel and reconcile before switching off
- BS calendar and VAT defaults install in one click
- 14-day trial, so a small team can move at no cost
