Where Traditional
Roots that are firmly planted in tried and true processes; sights that are future-focused on leveraging technologically-superior app integrations to ensure our clients benefit from every advantage.
Take a look at what future-proof accounting looks like…
Connection
Working in the cloud means that everyone on your team (managers, administrators, accountants, etc) can be immediately connected to the information they need through their internet browser. No sharing files, no backups, no program version issues. As well, your bookkeeping team is available for meetings, follow up and training as you need them. You don’t need to wait for your bookkeeper’s next visit to the office. You have the resources you need at your fingertips.
Integration
Cloud access to real time data eliminates information silos. Each team member can access and analyze the info that they need without waiting for info to be passed from one department to another. The result is an integrated, efficient team.
Automation
One of the greatest benefits of the cloud is the automation of regular tasks. Jobs like collecting bank statements, gathering sales figures and tracking donor names and address are important. But rather than using your precious people power to complete these ongoing mundane tasks, we use the power of automation to get the right info to the right spot. Then your people power can be used for more complicated and thoughtful tasks like customer service or report analysis.
Customization
Cloud accounting platforms offer a streamlined, elegant general ledger solution. From there, you can add applications that fit your particular industry to create the perfect accounting ecosystem. For example, if you are in retail, you can choose the ideal POS and inventory management application. If you are in the professional services, you can integrate quoting, project management and invoicing software. And not-for-profits or charitable organizations can add on fundraising and donor management applications. Finally reporting apps mean you can have customized reporting in a few clicks.
Leading the Way…
This cutting-edge process leads to better management decisions based on accurate and up-to-date information; a deeper understanding of how to create more profitable sales; a better managed project; a more integrated team; and a more successful overall organization!
A Package That Packs a Punch!
