Benefits of Cloud Accounting Software

We're experts in Xero Accounting Software. Xero Accounting makes use of Cloud Accounting technology. Here are some of the benefits of using Cloud Accounting Software.

Spend less time on managing projects and more time delivering value

Experts

Less Administration

Cloud Accounting removes the hassle of time-consuming software installation. It also removes the chore of creating backups and similar administrative tasks, because you're accessing the software over the internet. You don't need to buy or manage servers or other IT infrastructure to run the cloud accounting software. Overall this allows you to spend more time taking care of productive activities instead of having to handle ongoing site infrastructure issues.

Access to specialized services

Up-to-date Software

Because the cloud accounting software itself is maintained, it never goes out of date. The cloud provider automatically updates the accounting software to include changes to tax rates, and accounting rules, and even adds new features. You'll always have access to the latest version.

Jigsaw

Automation

Reduce manual work by an order of magnitude. The cloud accounting software automatically imports bank and credit card transactions, produces recurring invoices, schedule reports, pay subscriptions, and posts transactions to the correct ledger. Cloud Accounting software can be effective for handling tax calculations for international sales for many different countries.

Document Management

Collaboration

With all the financial data stored online in a single database, team members can collaborate easily. This will prevent multiple copies of the same data. Employees can work anywhere together as long as they have internet access. This can foster teamwork and can enable a far more efficient work process.

Time Tracking

Ease of Compliance

Cloud accounting platforms help private and public companies with tax compliance by producing accurate financial statements, quarterly tax estimates and yearly tax returns. This aids in avoiding tax liability under-reporting. Under-reporting could like to audits or fines. Over-reporting could also be an issue by paying too much. By automating domestic and international tax calculations, cloud platforms also help ensure compliance with all applicable tax regimes. Some leading cloud accounting solutions automate revenue recognition to comply with acceptable accounting standards.

Connection

Data Security

It's understandable to have concerns regarding storing sensitive information on the cloud. The main benefit of cloud accounting software is how it has advanced encryption and access control, making sure that only authorized users can access your data.

Comparisons for the Best Accounting Software for Small Business

Although we recommend Xero is advisable to always know how it compares to others to ensure you choose the right one for you.
We have not included SAP One or NetSuite as they are considerably more expensive than what we are comparing and they take longer than 6 months to implement.

Xero

We believe that it is the overall best accounting software for small businesses. It's perfect for accountants and non-accountants alike and agile enough to ensure you won't need to move to another software until you need a fully fledged ERP.

Quickbooks

Quickbooks is the biggest accounting software provider for small business but the user experience isn't as easy to use like Xero and non-accountants will struggle to use it fully. It has similar features to Xero but integration with other softwares are less than Xero.

Zoho

Zoho was very strong in marketing its product in the UAE and Saudi Arabia and although it has Zoho Books as its accounting module, their main strategy is to sell its other suite of products along with it. It is therefore good for micro businesses but as a business scales up, you would need to move to another software to keep up.

Thorough Training Using Xero

Sage

Sage traditionally was the dominant Accounting software in the previous decade but has not really caught up to Xero and Quickbooks. Many Accountants who are trained on it still enjoy using it but we believe that its weak API capabilities along with its rigid functionality makes it a legacy system.
