These include: general ledger, accounts payable/accounts receivable, fixed assets, and bank reconciliation. In most cases, you only need the basic plan or core accounting with one or two add-ons to your liking. Vendor support is needed, but very rarely, perhaps only during setup. For a more detailed look on this type of solutions check out our list of <a href="/top-5-accounting-software-small-business-2017/">accounting software for small business</a>.</li> <li><strong>Growing business</strong> – you may have the same accounting needs as a small business now, but you’ll need more robust features in a few months or years. Look for accounting software with scalable options, that is, you can start with a core accounting module and add more modules later.</li> <li><strong>Large enterprise</strong> – you will need more complex and robust accounting modules. For example, instead of getting a core accounting module with bundled budget & forecast or fixed asset features, it’s recommended to get full but integrated modules. Standalone modules can handle multiple data from different departments and consolidate them to get an overall picture.

Sometimes it’s better to take a look at the bigger picture first, and define the category you belong to before investing in a product.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Payroll Software.</strong> Payroll programs are standard tools for accounting and drafting reports, which work with drag-and-drop capabilities and are usually easy to understand. Their main feature are cash-flow calculators applied by multiple users, and they are far more industry-specific than other accounting products.</li> <li><strong>Enterprise Resource Management Software (ERP)</strong>. ERP suites include all the standard reports and financial tools, the same as points of sale, inventory control, billing, purchasing, and customer relationship management. They can also be industry-specific, particularly for sectors such as construction and manufacturing.</li> <li><strong>Freemium Software.</strong> The main difference between this type and the other two types is that accounting features are slightly limited, or require paid subscriptions in order to be accessed. Most of them are on-premise, meaning that you have to use your company data or your financial information to download them.</li> </ul> </div> </div><div class="article-section"> <h3 id="key-features-of-accounting-software"><span class="cat-icon cat-icon--key-features"></span>Key Features of Accounting Software</h3> <div class="article-section__text"> <ul> <li><strong>Core accounting </strong>– it’s the basic component of all accounting software, so make sure you’re getting this module. Features include general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable, fixed assets, and bank reconciliation. Most vendors offer this as their basic plan, while a few vendor even give it away as a freemium to get you on board for future paid subscriptions.</li> <li><strong>Billing & Invoicing </strong>– this module can be part of the basic module or as a separate component. It lets you to automate routine collections. Billing & Invoicing can vary by industry based on payment methods, industry standards and practices, and scale of operations.</li> <li><strong>Budget & Forecasting </strong>– often packaged as an add-on, this module lets you estimate next year’s budget based on historic data and sales targets. A standalone module can consolidate different departmental budgeting and forecasts for an overall company estimates, while a bundled feature usually only allows a single budget and forecast tool.</li> <li><strong>Fixed asset </strong>– whether as an add-on or bundled with core accounting, fixed asset lets you manage financial information on important company assets. Features include depreciation calculation; audit history; and cost. This module is critical if the business has a lot of assets in different forms. Otherwise, a bundled fixed asset may suffice.</li> <li><strong>Payroll system </strong>– lets you process employee payrolls, print checks, automatically withhold and pay taxes and create legal and tax reports on schedule. The module is often packaged as an add-on or standalone product. A practical feature to look at is an automated reminder when to issue government payments to avoid penalties.</li> <li><strong>Project accounting </strong>– it’s usually packaged as a standalone product targeted at businesses with project-oriented operations like construction and software firms. This product is usually bundled with core accounting on top of costing and estimation of overheads, labor, materials, and equipment, among others. Project accounting solutions range from simple systems that can manage projects one at a time, or complex solutions for multiple and simultaneous but interrelated projects.</li> <li><strong>Fund accounting </strong>– targeted at nonprofits and government agencies, which have a separate set of financial reporting requirements.

More specific inventory systems have a tool to calculate stock depreciation if your business has a low shelf-life product line.</li> </ul> </div> </div><div class="article-section"> <h3 id="benefits-of-accounting-software"><span class="cat-icon cat-icon--benefits"></span>Benefits of Accounting Software</h3> <div class="article-section__text"> <p>Automating finance and accounting processes is driven by the need to cut costs and to improve productivity, relying on a transparent financial picture to reveal trends and opportunities. These are some of the most important advantages and benefits of accounting software:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Improved productivity</strong>. The role of a proper A&F program is to drill deep into your daily routine and to take over complex processes that take hours to complete. What it does is to collect data, organize it, and analyze it for you, automatically meaning that you can focus on more important tasks in the meanwhile.</li> <li><strong>Savings</strong>. It doesn’t mean that you have to start all over – A&F products are made to be integrated into your existent financial framework, so you don’t have to worry about adjusting them to standards and revenue frameworks. Thinking about it, having an A&F system that will integrate multiple data operations in one platform is more cost-effective than running multiple systems and transferring data manually.</li> <li><strong>Resource Transparency.</strong> The magic of A&F systems is that they make finance management easy, and are usually packed with explanations and simple interfaces for non-accountant users. For you, this would mean that you don’t have to train staff to use them, and that everybody in the company will be familiar with your financial capacity even without explaining.</li> <li><strong>Automatic Production of Documents.</strong> Together with the fact that it wraps data into comprehensive views, an A&F system can also generate reports based on it. Invoices and credit notes will be produced automatically, and the risk of human error will be completely eliminated.</li> <li><strong>Smarter Strategies.</strong> Remember that your intention is not only to have bills clean at the end of the month, but to use your current financial state to develop smarter strategies for the future. A&F systems will enable you to forecast possible scenarios and to follow trends, because they are fast enough to meet the needs of the growing financial markets.</li> </ul> </div> </div><div class="article-section"> <h3 id="latest-trends"><span class="cat-icon cat-icon--latest-trends"></span>Latest Trends</h3> <div class="article-section__text"> <p>Nobody knows what the future will bring, but that’s not a reason to be fraught by close misses and half-truths. Therefore, we can’t expect a huge outbreak in the case of Accounting Software, but rather an extension of what has been happening so far:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Cloud storage will become the only storage</strong>. Yes, local storage is on its way out, and it doesn’t take to be a fortune teller to predict it. That’s the only way mobile technology will make sense for people to access their files on the go, being sure at the same time that they are protected.</li> <li><strong>Smart scanning for less data.</strong> That’s where innovation becomes visible. The introduction of Optical Character Recognition will enable us to transform printed materials into digital data in minimal time, meaning that accountants can forget about manual checks.</li> </ul> </div> </div><div class="article-section"> <h3 id="potential-issues"><span class="cat-icon cat-icon--potential-issues"></span>Potential Issues</h3> <div class="article-section__text"> <ul> <li><strong>General vs. industry-specific accounting</strong> – An accounting software designed for your industry outperforms a general accounting solution. But consider other factors like vendor support, integration, and scalability to ensure the industry-specific software is truly superior.</li> <li><strong>Cross-process integration</strong> – other business processes like CRM, sales software, and project management solutions often work best when integrated with your financials. A reliable accounting software should not be capable of integrating to its own modules, but also across other processes. If the accounting software can export data to standard file formats like CSV, TXT, or PDF, it’s likely compatible with other business solutions.</li> <li><strong>Scalability – </strong>even if you’re a small business, give scalability a serious look. You can never tell if your business needs to expand, along with your financial needs. At the least, the accounting software should let you export data in case you need to get a more robust solution in the future.</li> </ul> </div> </div><div class="article-section"> <h3 id="types-of-deployment"><span class="cat-icon cat-icon--types"></span>Types of Deployment</h3> <div class="article-section__text"> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Accounting software can have three deployment types. These are (1) on-premise, (2) cloud-based, and (3) hybrid. Each has its pros and cons. So, you have to carefully consider which one fits your business and culture. </span></p> <p><b>On-Premise.</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> This classic deployment type requires you to install the software in your office machine. The best pro about this is that you can work offline while the biggest con is an issue of security, related to hardware loss or failure. Also, software products of this deployment type tend to not have collaboration features. Users only pay once for these types, which may last only until the next major upgrade. </span></p> <p><b>Cloud-based.</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> One great thing about cloud-based accounting software is that you can access your data anytime, anywhere, and on any device. Also, you don’t need costly powerful hardware for this to run. You outsource the computing power to the software provider. One major benefit is that this allows for easier collaboration. There are three major cons: (1) they come in recurring payment plans, (2) you can’t access your data without connecting to the internet, and (3) security/privacy of your information could be at risk.</span></p> <p><b>Hybrid.</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Some accounting software products have both an on-premise client and an online portal. This really takes the best of both deployment worlds. You can work offline and you can perform work and store your information securely online. Also, you can collaborate with other users here. However, this deployment type may be costly. </span></p> </div> </div><div class="article-section"> <h3 id="payment-schemes-and-costs"><span class="cat-icon cat-icon--default"></span>Payment Schemes and Costs</h3> <div class="article-section__text"> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Cost is a very important factor to consider when choosing the right accounting software system for you. You cannot go overboard and spend on an advanced platform designed to streamline your accounting but will set you back with its price. Also, costs come with payment schemes. Also, different software providers offer different payment options. Here are the most common ones. </span></p> <p><b>Free. </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">Yes, there are free accounting tools out there. You can refer to our FAQ section about them. </span></p> <p><b>One-Time. </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">There are software companies that will give you access to their products for a one-time fee. Usually, prices depend on the number of user licenses. Some companies offer a lifetime license with free updates. Others make customer support and product features obsolete when they roll out new versions. So, watch out for these kinks when you first sign up. </span></p> <p><b>Monthly Subscription. </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">This payment scheme is popular among SaaS providers. It’s perfect for when you are new to a software solution as you can opt-out easily. However, it’s usually more expensive than its yearly counterpart. </span></p> <p><b>Yearly Subscription. </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">This payment plan, as its name suggests, lets you pay for one-year access to a cloud-based accounting software solution. It is usually offered cheaper than the monthly plans. However, it is harder to opt-out. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">One way to ease yourself into a long-term payment plan is to start with a free account first. Or, if a provider doesn’t have a free version, check out their free trial. When you like what you have, you can then test it for a few months more with a months-based subscription. If you think you can go with the product long term, then its time to subscribe to their much cheaper yearly plans. </span></p> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="clearfix"></div> </div> </div> <div id="category-related-resources" class="category__related order-4 content-visibility"> <div class="main-container"> <div class="col col--75 col--sm"> <h3>Related Resources</h3> <ul> <li><a href="/list-accounting-software-companies/" title="List of Accounting Software Companies of 2024">List of Accounting Software Companies of 2024</a></li> <li><a href="/accounting-software-startups-use/" title="What Accounting Software Do Startups Use?">What Accounting Software Do Startups Use?</a></li> <li><a href="/accountants-value-accounting-software/" title="What Do Accountants Value Most In An Accounting Software?">What Do Accountants Value Most In An Accounting Software?</a></li> <li><a href="/accounting-software-useful-look-importance-businesses-organizations/" title="Why Accounting Software is Useful; A Look at its Importance to Businesses and Organizations">Why Accounting Software is Useful; A Look at its Importance to Businesses and Organizations</a></li> <li><a href="/much-accounting-software-cost-comparison-pricing-plans-top-solutions/" title="How Much Does Accounting Software Cost in 2024?

<h3>Things to consider when you invest in a SaaS</h3> <p>Infrastructure plays a key role in a SaaS software. If there is downtime, you would not be able to access the platform. So, you should pay good attention to the program’s infrastructure when analyzing SaaS vendors.</p> <p>Many enterprises fail to ask their shortlisted SaaS providers questions about disaster recovery, service level agreements (SLAs), and security. These are key infrastructure elements that need careful consideration when considering a provider. </p> <p>SaaS is easy to subscribe to. All you need to do is go the website and purchase a suitable plan for the required number of users. For this reason, many companies pay attention only to the cost of the package and not to infrastructure considerations. They may also think that in-depth evaluation is not necessary since it is so simple to get started quickly.</p> <p>But you need to be ready for situations as such as the SaaS vendor going out of business or their website going down. You need to have contingency procedures in place to face these situations to ensure they do not have a harmful effect on your firm. It is simple to subscribe to a SaaS product, but think about the effect on your business if the program is withdrawn by the vendor.</p> <div class="fot-faq"> <h3><span class="icon icon--faq"></span>Frequently asked questions about Accounting Software</h3> <div class="fot-faq__item"> <a href="#">What is the best accounting software? <span class="icon icon--arrow-down"></span></a> <div class="fot-faq__answer" id="faq-q1"> <p><a href="https://reviews.financesonline.com/p/freshbooks/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">FreshBooks</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> won our Best Accounting Software Award for 2019.
