We recently had a meeting with a potential client whose current accountant is still using a typewriter to produce their accounts. This led us to write a blog on the reasons why it’s time to leave the typewriter behind and make the move to cloud software!
Here are our top five reasons to switch to cloud software:
- They help you to grow your business
The software allows you to get a real-time figure of how your business is doing at any moment so that you can immediately see any problems that need to be fixed. The software can also be used to predict any future problems and create ‘what if’ scenarios so that you can decide on the best course of action to take.
- Integrates with other software
The main accounting apps such as QuickBooks online and Xero integrate with several other apps to make your life a lot easier. This allows your business to run as smoothly as it can with little input from you.
- You can access your data from anywhere
Cloud software has all of the same features as desktop software but it can be accessed from anywhere so you’re not stuck at your desk all of the time!
- Less micromanagement
Cloud apps require a lot less micromanagement than desktop versions because they are more intuitive. They’re also much less complicated to use!
- Huge variety
There are absolutely loads of apps available to choose from so there’s definitely something to suit every business.
If you’re not sure about which apps you should be using for your business or you’d like a hand with your current software, please feel free to contact us.
