Cloud Technology Can Streamline Business Management

Author: Paul Cantelli

Anyone responsible for running a business can feel chronically frazzled – there are just too many things that need your attention. You can’t do it all and do it well, too. Switching to outsourced accounting can save valuable time that you could – and probably should – be spending on your most critical activities.

Especially when it comes to managing your financials you can’t afford missteps. You need accuracy and timeliness to effectively direct daily operations and make smart decisions.

Outsourced accounting ties it all together.

Working in the cloud allows you to streamline all aspects of your accounting – data capture, retrieval, calculations and reporting. Cloud-based outsourced accounting easily integrates QuickBooks and Intacct accounting functions, accounts receivable and payable, payroll and periodic taxes and reporting, ensuring compliance with no slip-ups or risk of penalties.

You’ll have information at your fingertips to support annual and long-term tax planning as well as ongoing business performance analysis. That can help save money at tax time and improve your day-to-day operations.

Outsourced accounting does more than efficiently keep your finances on track.

Working in the cloud is faster and more accurate. You’ll benefit from:

• Uploading data or accessing files 24/7, from anywhere, assuring the mobility and flexibility essential to effectively manage any type or size of business these days.
• Top-flight security that safeguards your confidential or proprietary information.
• Automatic back-up and easy retrieval.
• Increased productivity, replacing manual labor with automation that eliminates mistakes, duplication of effort and time wasted on mundane, repetitive tasks.

You’ll save time on meeting travel and document transport and save money by eliminating the need for new technology, software, upgrades, IT time, storage, even office space. And you can hire the very best people, regardless of their location, because you’re working in the cloud.

The cloud may be invisible but it’s a solid business management tool, especially when it comes to accounting.
