Why Bayside
Real people, direct line.
Our team — the same people who answer when you call.
The software is the easy part. The service is the difference.
Plenty of software vendors promise “fully integrated, user friendly” modules. We actually built our software for simple oil & gas bookkeeping. What you can't get from a brochure is a phone call answered by someone who knows your operation.
01
You talk to the people who build it.
Every call to Bayside reaches one of our principal owners — not a ticket queue, not a call center, not a reseller reading a script.
02
We do the heavy lifting up front.
Installation, master-file conversion, and training are part of the complete system. We learn your accounts, owners, and wells before you go live.
03
We stay with you after installation.
Phone and remote support during business hours, with before- and after-hours appointments when you need them.
The back office, covered
One system for the work that runs your business.
From the first invoice to the final owner statement, OGBOOKS keeps the accounting, the owners, and the wells in one place.
Revenue Distribution
Pay royalty and working interest owners from production data — no re-keying and no spreadsheet gymnastics.
Investor Management
Ownership records, transfers, and owner statements stay together and stay current.
Payroll, AP & AR
Run payroll, pay vendors, invoice partners, and reconcile the bank without leaving the system.
Lease Records & Production
Keep wells, leases, and production volumes connected to the accounting that depends on them.
Reporting & Depletion
General ledger, depletion, and Excel-ready reports for the moments you need to dig into the numbers.
Every module included
Many modules. One system of record.
No per-module pricing, no add-on tiers. The complete OGBOOKS system includes all of it.
