My Small Business is outgrowing QuickBooks, now what...?

When your business is starting out, QuickBooks is a great solution to manage your accounting needs. It’s simple, easy to use and doesn’t require any significant knowledge of accounting. As your business grows, you increase the number of customers you have, the amount of transactions you’re processing, and the number of users that need to access the system.

Once your data reaches a certain level, your system starts to slow down and efficiency of day-to-day tasks begin to decline. On top of that, you’re likely using separate systems outside of QuickBooks to manage different areas of your business. Maybe it’s spreadsheets, maybe it’s additional point solutions, or maybe you have homegrown systems that you’ve built up over time – the key point is that they’re all distinct and likely don’t talk to each other all that well, if at all. Sounds familiar?

Now you are ready to start considering a new solution. There are many different options out there, so here’s the big question you need to answer: Do you stick with QuickBooks for your accounting and add on new loosely integrated systems to handle the rest? Or do you look at a solution that can integrate your entire business into one system and handle the increasing amount of data and complexity that inevitably comes with growing your business? The answer will depend on what specific requirements your business has – now and into the future as you continue to grow.

If you are asking yourself these set of questions, SAP Business One could be the answer. With a straight forward implementation methodology and easy to understand pricing structure, you will be able to Increase control over your small business with software designed to grow with you.

Streamline key processes, gain greater insight into your business, and make decisions based on real-time information – so you can drive profitable growth.
