Have you outgrown your accounting software? Some tell tale signs...
We discuss technology pain points and challenges with finance leaders and business owners on a near daily basis. Interestingly, the challenges are broadly similar and often focus around lost productivity, connectivity and security issues and limited access to consistent business and financial data – all key indicators they’ve outgrown their accounting software.
How many questions from the list below resonate with your organisation’s challenges?
- Do you fear you’re losing sales?
- Do you lack trust in the financial data you use to drive key business decisions?
- Do you waste time working across multiple systems and applications?
- Have you received customer complaints in areas such as billing and invoicing?
- Are you failing to keep pace with legislative updates, such as Making Tax Digital?
- Are you limited in your use of data, making it difficult to deliver a positive, joined up customer experience?
- Are you missing out on the benefits of cloud technology, including remote access to key data and applications?
- Have you missed project deadlines or run over budget?
With the evolution of cloud technology, we are able to take SME businesses from any sector and of any size and transition them from accounting software that they’ve outgrown to Business Central, a modern technology platform that’s ready to support growth and adapt to the new working normal.
Why Business Central? Ultimately it provides a solution to all the challenges associated with outgrowing your accounting software.
