When contemplating outsourcing your accounting, it makes perfect sense to also reconsider the tools that have been used so far. Although, switching over to another accounting software might seem a complex and time-consuming process, it is often an investment worth making if the new solution enables more extensive automations. Thus, increasing cost-effectiveness and improving the timeliness of accounting data. Moreover, in analysing the different accounting software available the team gains a deep understanding of the existing accounting processes, enabling them to further optimise for efficiency.
